Banner Power at Cannes 2008

SILENCE

Very clever way to use the medium to the fullest. Very few banners do away with Copy and this is the perfect example.
The Mercedes E-Class can offer its passengers peace and relaxation. And the banner campaign tagged “Silence” perfectly illustrates the same. German agency Elephant Seven has cleverly done away with a regular information overload and kept the banner simple. I have seen banners without Copy, but not to this effect.
