chuukyuu Did Mr.Bernbach give you any advice that particularly impressed you? And how'l do you apply his advice to your work?
Protas Advice from Bill Bernbach? Well, the one bit I remember most was his advice on believability. Find a sound selling point, do a fresh and provocative ad, but always remember one guide-line-believability.
One illustration he's often used is the man upside down on the page.
Do it just for the sake of catching attention and you've got nothing more than a gimmick. If, on the other hand, you're selling men's clothes with pockets from which nothing can fall out, then you're being provocative and you're selling at the same time.
