The ads were photographed by Bruno Cals (swimming pool), Thelma Vilas Boas (shooting pool) and Daniel Krajmic (jogging at the park) with art director Márcio Ribas, copywriter Wilson Mateos, and creative directors Márcio Ribas and Wilson Mateos. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 74% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/marketing) > [Print](https://www.trendhunter.com/print) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Sexual Diversity Advertising:** There are opportunities for innovative and inclusive advertising campaigns that challenge societal norms and celebrate sexual diversity. - **Using Shock Value in Advertising:** Creative and bold advertising approaches that utilize shocking visual imagery can captivate audiences and generate buzz. - **Celebrating Unconventional Beauty:** The promotion of unconventional ideas of beauty and body diversity can pave the way for more inclusive representations in media and advertising. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Advertising and Marketing:** Advertising agencies can explore new approaches to create impactful and memorable campaigns that challenge societal norms and promote diversity. - **Film and Entertainment:** The film industry can take inspiration from the Mix Sexual Diversity Film Festival's advertising campaign to create thought-provoking and boundary-pushing content. - **Art and Photography:** Photographers and artists can experiment with unconventional concepts and visual representations to provoke discussions about beauty standards and inclusivity. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Creative Ad Responses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiehls-response.md) - [Celebratory LGBTQ Haircare Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pantene-beautifulgbtq-campaign.md) - [Humorous Mens Fragrance Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/axe-campaign.md) - [Distorted Burger Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ailloween.md) - [Bizarre Soda Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/try-more-weird.md) - [In-App Pride Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bottomfriendly-menu.md) - [Handmade Dating App Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/get-paired-with-paird.md) - [Provocative AR Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/not-so-happy-animals.md) - [Love-Centric Public Service Announcements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-has-no-labels1.md)
