Pretty in Print: Brazil

Hello! This is the second feature for Pretty in Print. Two weeks ago we looked at the beautiful art in print ads from Russia in Pretty in Print: Russia.

 Today we are venturing to South America to the land of white-sand beaches, wild rain forests and bustling cities. That's right-- Brazil.

These are what I think to be some of the most captivating creative pieces of print advertising straight out of Brazil:

Body Art in Ads

"The Church says: the body is a sin. 

Science says: the body is a machine. 

Advertising says: The body is a business. 

The Body says: I am a fiesta."

-Eduardo Galeano, Walking Words

Animal Selfies

Monkey see, monkey do?

I know a gorilla is not a monkey... same idea though!

Animal Selfies for National Geographic is an advertising campaign from Sao Paulo, Brazil for National Geographic and stock photo agency Diomedia. This photo series came out last Spring, but it is absolutely adorable so I will share it with you now. It says one thing that may or may not be for the better: selfies are NOT going away.

Halloween Ads: Then & Now (Now)

These are some of my favorite recent Halloween ads from around the world. While most of the ads are from the United States, there are a couple really good ones from other countries that I have never seen before.When you look for quality content, you really will find it.

Dumb Ways to Die: Halloween (2014) (Australia)

One of the ads that has been getting a lot of attention is Tesco's Spookermart, from the UK. It was featured on AdWeek, showing a supermarket that set out to scare its customers at every turn. I love celebrating the holidays with the world at large. The seasons really bring us together in spirit.
