This is a creative for the Corona X World Surf League. How insanely simple but pure genius? Not to put my own team down, but rarely do our designers think up ideas like this. It makes me wonder if what it takes is design thinking and expertise, or just a great briefing from the client for such work to get produced. Any thoughts?

Such a great ad! I'm personally a fan of Ordinary, and so I can't tell if this is personal bias or simply a genius idea. I've come to terms with the fact that celebrity endorsements are only worth it if the brand has a whole lot of money to throw around. The effect of a celebrity being a face to the company is huge, but it's very short-lived in my opinion. What are your thoughts?
