 The after lunch “purge” wasn’t working very well, so a few creative’s have taken it upon themselves to get into shape using the Tonic “No Fun” Diet. I doubt any of them will manage to stay on it very long because they’re all sitting next to Dogboy and he loves food about as much as he loves design. Anything edible seems to vanish in the vicinity of his desk.Maybe they just want to be healthy or maybe they’re anticipating all the work we’ll be doing on Burger King, whatever it is, as a supportive agency we’ll be sure to keep them as far away from anything that tastes good for at least a day, after that, they're on their own. Wish them luck. Click to expand.

 A self promo ad for Tonic. The brief came two days ago, a barter deal between Gulf Marketing Review, a monthly magazine about marketing in the gulf region. Really, it's much easier to think for somebody else's ad rather than a self promo. It proves, with quick and random thinking you can create provocation and attention.I am sure this will turn heads. No offense to the logos illustrated, It maybe TBWN, Y&K, a logo with a star, LOVE, RWT. Because every logo was cut. I can call this ad illusion with truth.

 Presenting, the robot mold that will tear your emotions apart. Designed by our buddy/tonician Rob, this robot will soon to hit the market by storm. Of course, the Brownmonkeys and Tonic will get its initial debut of this funky robotic DIY toy. Hey! Are you up for it? Here's more about Rob:

 Wikipedia describes the term Mascot as any person, animal or object thought to bring luck. And after the month we’ve just had, we have to thank Lucy (the unofficial Tonic Mascot) for sharing some good luck and good old fashion Labrador love around the agency. Lucy has been at the office for more than a week now and we are seriously considering making her an official employee. The other day she even growled at a client when he asked us to make his logo bigger.

Isobar Tomorrow’s Communication Today Speaker: Nigel Morris CEO - Isobar The media revolution is here. It is time to stop talking and start acting. The traditional mass marketing model is delivering less for more - an unacceptable situation for marketeers whose budgets are under increasing pressure. The old world of mass media was all about broad audiences, shallow messaging and occasional bursts of advertising - with wastage built in as the price of doing business. In the new world it is possible to be precise about different audiences and the channels used to reach them. Companies can go beyond messaging to create deeper conversations and experiences and, if desired, have a continuous presence in people's lives. These opportunities aren't somewhere in the future. They exist today. Companies that grab them, break out of the traditional mass marketing approach and transform their communications, will find that in the new world it is possible to do more for less. http://www.dubailynx.com/event/seminar.cfm?seminar_date=02/4

Contagious What Is Advertising? Speaker: Paul Kemp-Robertson Editorial Director - Contagious 14:00 - 14:45 What is advertising? Is it the art of getting people to forget that they're watching an ad? It doesn't mean people automatically want to tune out just because something is advertising. And it doesn't mean it's not selling just because something is entertaining. Future-facing brands have started figuring out the art of being useful and relevant, and of delivering entertaining content and engaging services that people actively seek out and share. New forms of advertising play a welcome role in everyday lives by igniting conversations and giving something back to consumers. There are many ways to get people to forget what they're seeing is actually an ad. The challenge is to get them to remember that it's being delivered by a brand. http://www.dubailynx.com/event/seminar.cfm?seminar_id=26
Our office just got more funky with its new glass window decal design. The graphics will be mounted by a frosted opaque see through sticker, machine cut. It was an open brief though, the idea is to show the abstract reality of the creative process.

for everyone |
We’re often asked to do barter deals with some of our suppliers. Obviously budgets are small, but sometimes you can do some cool work. This spot for Trends Magazine had to be dead simple – some people have said too simple, but I think it works well and it will get noticed.
TV spot was digitally done by Modelcraft. Import.flv (342 KB)
| | In true Tonic style and simplicity, we bring you our latest campaign – Bic. What a great brand and what a great client for allowing us to do work like this. If you say Bic to someone, immediately you think pens. After this campaign, people will know that Bic are more than just stationery. Carefully illustrated by Satwik Saraswati and Art Directed by Diya Ajit and Peter Walker, these ads give new meaning to simplicity. Visit www.bicworld.com for more details on Bic and their amazing range of products. |
 We take a lot of things for granted especially our sense of sight. For those people that are visually impaired, there are some wonderful organisations like the Al Noor Association for the Blind that are willing to lend a hand. Our goal was to raise as much awareness as possible for the Al Noor Association for the Blind. Sleeping masks with a message that said, “What if you could never take these off” were placed in Business Class sections of selected airlines. Sleeping masks, which are handed out during most flights, represent a perfect opportunity to communicate with an affluent target audience. When these masks are placed over the eyes, you can just imagine what life must be like for a visually impaired person. A simple idea with a very powerful message. Many thanks to everyone involved in making this campaign a reality. Please show your support by visiting www.alnoor4blind.org.om Blogged by Tonic
 Tonic had a small christmas party in the office, here's what I got from Diya. This is good book to start my new year. hehe!
