If you’ve been a designer for some time then you have met all kinds of clients and all kinds of requests, some entertaining, a few normal and a lot really absurd and insane ones. The good part about this is that you can laugh with your fellow designers by telling the craziest stories you happen to get yourself into. Yet, a better idea that Ireland’s creative community came up with was to make posters out of the client’s silliest requests and sell them for charity. From what I understand, the posters were a blast and that’s not at all surprising. Polar BearI like it, but can you make it a little warmer? TargetThe target audience is makes and females, aged zero and up. Actual LogoCould you do an actual logo instead of a font? VikingsYou’re portraying the vikings in a negative light. TravelI’m just not sure that a globe and a passport represents travel. Target marketI’m the target market and I don’t like it. ZebraThat horse looks like a zebra. White spaceToo much white space. Less is more. ColoursI really like the colour, but can you change it? When I see itI’ll know what I want when I see it. Animated TV adI know you said the TV ad would be “animated” but that’s a cartoon. Baby’s EarWe need to remove the baby’s ear. Or at least move it round the side of his head a bit. LatinLooks great, however the copy seems to be in Latin, but could be Italian or Spanish. Too blockyFitzerWe want it to look like this, but don’t copy it. Just make it different enough, but keep it the same! JazzJazz it up a little. CowboyCould we make the cowboy a little less camp? RedxmasWe feel that red just isn’t right for Christmas. PremiumThat just doesn’t look premium. Non-specificWe need mre images of groups of people having non-specific types of fun. Chill factorCan we dial back the chill factor? Less chill. And then dial up the fun factor, by around 25%. BreaknetI want you to break the internet. PopMake it pop! More fontsCan you use more fonts? Italian or SpanishWarm handshakeThe flyer should feel like a warm handshake. Bigger logoCan we not make the logo bigger? ScreenLo res? But I don’t understand… If you can’t make it any bigger, how are you able to enlarge it on the screen? ElephantCan you turn it around in Photoshop so we can see more of the front…? Another RoomHave the end line spoken so people not watching the ad in another room can hear it? GermsCould you make the invisible germs more visible? Animated GifI have printed it out, but the animated gif is not moving. MonkeyI did this at home with Microsoft Paint. Can you make it look like this? Sexy PigCan we make the pig sexier?
