    As you know it happens that creatives of different countries can have the same idea at the same time, but JWT Milan presented a very similar « Ambient » for Sunsilk shampoo at the beginning of 2007, receiving high marks by the Q1 (an internal evaluation of the best campaigns made by JWT agencies around the world) and a shortlist by Italy’s Art Directors Club. Copy: Mario Manasse, Art: Cristina Grazioli. It goes without saying that we have proof of this claim. Thank you for your attention.

    I designed the original.. Of course i know different creatives can have the same idea, but I also believe they can be easliy inspired by google searches!! 😉
