When I was a new creative design of the small white, whenever I see some classic award-winning advertising works, I will be confused: "Creative is born or can be practiced the day after the day?" ""The idea is so sky-high, can I learn it?" "I just don't have an idea, how can I open my mind?"

Later, I visited a school after the master told me that creativity can be practiced. I summed up the tricks as a secret here to give, share some ideas and open up ideas.

Let's open the first page of the cheats, to practice this work, we must first from... No, you have to figure out for yourself what creativity is first.

Creativity is short for creative or innovative consciousness. It refers to the understanding and cognition of the existence of things in reality, which derives from a new kind of abstract thinking and behavioral potential. From the understanding of words, "creation" - innovation, creation, creativity. "Meaning" - consciousness, ideas, wisdom, thinking.

For the generation of ideas, many people even think that creativity is born with the system's own, natural genes. Others thought it was everyone who got together for snacks and hummed songs, and suddenly they were robbed of their ideas.

"Brainstorming" can indeed collide with a lot of good creative points, but not the directionless thinking of the line, before the "brainstorming" need to do a good job in advance, and this time will reflect the importance of single-man combat.

"Advertising creativity" is a "science that arouses curiosity, wonder and attention", and many of the ideas are the product of following the rules after learning a lot of works, not just a casual meeting can "brainstorm" out of the idea.

So how did most of the legendary Big Idea come about?

The first style of creative treasure - exaggeration

Overstate certain aspects of the characteristics of the object being advertised in order to deepen or expand the understanding of those characteristics. "Exaggeration is the basic principle of creation, " says the writer Goerki. "In this way, the characteristics of the object can be expressed more clearly. Such ideas are more direct and are spread in two steps:

HUGGIES (Curious) urine is not wet to suck the grass and the ocean dry, fine water performance is really strong enough. These two ads directly exaggerate the function of the product - water absorption, so that the picture conveys a very clear theme message. The baby used such urine not wet sleep, mother must be relieved.

Want to secretly film the girl also worried about being found, do not want to have this embarrassing words, OMAX wide-angle lens to help you solve the problem.

The most realistic print effect.

Look far, see clearly, just like in front of you. Proper exaggeration is always the magic weapon of advertising success.

The second style of the creative treasure trove - comparing the big method

The method of contrast is mainly divided into two kinds, one is to compare two different things or two aspects of the same thing together, from the differences presented by the comparison to emphasize the performance and characteristics of the product, to give consumers a profound visual feeling.

The other is the same industry comparison, common in the major rival companies in the advertising creative tear-up war, that is, the so-called competitive marketing, but this does not prevent the birth of good ideas.

That's the case with Idea, who won the 2011 Cannes Advertising Festival's all-time award for "Heaven and Hell," which presents the sturdy of the rookie suitcase in a contrasting way. During the journey, the passengers are enjoying the heavenly treatment, but the travel box is suffering from hell, the journey is over, the travel box is intact back to the hands of the passengers."

Shaving ad: This is a group of quite meaningful ads, this ad consists of a contrast chart, on one side is a fur vest on the side of the beauty's hair, which side of the man is more attractive, the answer is self-evident.

Anti-competitor advertising if the creative point is not clever enough, it is easy to play with fire, such as a recent car in the fight against a U ads, then put themselves in a piece of scolding. But this kind of technique also gave birth to a lot of classic advertising. Such as Coca-Cola VS Pepsi, BMW VS Mercedes-Benz and so on.

Pepsi made an ad mocking Coca-Cola on Halloween in 2014, only to be hit back by Coca-Cola with the same ad. In the first picture, Pepsi means wearing a cape with Coca-Cola printed on it to scare people! The second picture, Coca-Cola means that Pepsi is ordinary, ordinary people long to be heroes, so put on the Coca-Cola cape! Coca-Cola symbolizes heroes.

The third style of the creative treasure trove - anthropomorthic law

Anthropomords are those who treat things as human beings according to imagination and abstract concepts as people. In the specific design, there are two ways, that is, to shape or intend behavior, through some ridiculous dynamics, appearance, plot and so on very happy to show creative views.

Acerca Health Center: Get rid of that "mini you"! - Turn the little belly anthropomorly into a small version of you and show it in three different environments, humorously conveying the troubles of obesity.

Frolic dog food advertising: dog reasonable, it and you just want to eat well - with three Tuhao star people's sexual well-being to show the importance of dog food, the image in place, let people can't help but.

sunlight dishwashing agent - animals, let go of that plate! This is the sunlight dishwashing agent advertising, taste would have been a very difficult to image the concept, through anthropomorthic methods, very directly convey the function of the product.

The fourth style of the creative treasure trove - metaphorical method

Metaphor is "for example". That is, grasping the similarities between two things of different natures and using one thing to make one thing a metaphor for another. The structure of a metaphor should generally consist of three parts, namely, the ont body (the thing to be compared), the metaphor (the thing to be compared) and the metaphorical word (similar point). The key to the metaphor: the metaphorical thing has no direct relationship with the subject, but at some point there are similarities with some characteristics of the subject, so it can be played by the problem, to carry out the extension transformation.

Ont: Sleeping bag metaphor: bed similarities: function

To indicate the comfort of the sleeping bag. Pack the bed into the shape of a sleeping bag, borrowing the comfort of the bed to insinuation how high the comfort of the sleeping bag is.

Ontogen: Ice Cream Metaphor: Flower Plant Similarity: Taste

Ont: Create a metaphor: Zipper Similarity: Closed
What are the features of Trotable? Of course, healing the wound, but how can it reflect the wound can be afflyted to heal it, the designer likened the wound to a zipper, a little more intuitive.

The fifth style of creative treasure - reverse thinking

Who says advertising must be life-threatening boast products? Sometimes you can change your mind, go retrograde, and do the opposite. Creative presentation of the negative consequences of using a bad product or the extreme consequences of using a product can often enhance consumer recognition of the functionality of the product.
