AvantForm hits us with the most vivid examples from their CGI library. Just like a movie trailer, they showcase all the best moments they have on hand to create this ad we wish we could watch in theaters.

๐ Color test ad of the week
CORKCICLE went down two different routes with these ads. They altered the bag colors, backgrounds, even the bottle and sunglasses to create distinct vibes between their posts. Such a contrast between the pair should help them determine whatโs working and whatโs not.

๐ค Confusing ad of the week
These ads from Essentia Water certainly are inspirational, but it's a bit hard to notice what they're actually about. A clear call to action would make a big difference.

๐ Feature test ad of the week
Hatch does an awesome job of testing two different types of ads. The first is full of features, and the other has only one. If your product has a lot to offer, itโs wise to experiment and find out what resonates more with the audience.

๐ง Incremental innovation ad of the week
