Sky Movies 'Billboards'
An example of what I think is called 'Anti-Advertising'. Typically, anti-advertising is where people or societies deface adverts as a way of showing that they don't want to be bombarded with adverts but Sky has developed a campaign which I suppose is 'anti-advertising advertising' where they are promoting sky movies by saying that they won't be showing adverts inbetween the movie. They are promoting themselves through an advert even though they are saying no to adverts. Controversial. But don't you think the world looks sooooo boring and mundane without adverts. It made me realise that even though we are faced with adverts everyday... they are interesting and give you something to look at whilst travelling on the bus or train to work! They add colour to our lives. I don't know if I would want to give them up. They make life a little more interesting!
