Are we sure these s=critters enjoy performing for us,as this ad suggests? it raises some disquieting questions.
i doubt...
It really raises questions.

At this AQ they dont train the animals to perform. They train them to keep their minds stimulated and to keep them physically healthy. They aren't doing tricks or things like that. I would put it more as exercises.

I think you're just a clown.
Great Copy
done !! done !! done !! done !!

i dun think so. the copy is so underexplored. there's no wit or charm. it's like a junior writer's first draft for the assignment. a guest raised a very valid point: are we sure they enjoy perfoming for us? copy aside, it's not even a well thought out campaign. where i live, this campaign will not even be included in my book for interviews. sorry guys

I love this campaign. I'm just an average Bostonian who rides the T daily and these ads brighten my afternoon. Forget what the pros think, the ads worked on me because they convinced me to schedule a trip to the aquarium.
As for whether the animals enjoy performing....lighten up. These animals are not abused, they are treated with love and respect by their trainers. They are well fed and seem to get plenty of exercise. They don't have to worry about finding their next meal or getting eaten by a shark. Also, their presence in the aquarium reminds people (children and adults) that we need to take care of our oceans to protects these magnificent species.
This is a very good campaign, but the copy on this ad struck me as the best. Its witty without trying too hard, and goes really well with the art direction. Stellar art direction on all three ads.
i like the copy.
You Fail If You Want To Fail.
I like it. Not bad... Not the strongest but it's a good concept. As for the copy, I think it's great!
