Obtaining advertising awards is a super motivation for the employees and the creative people in an advertising agency. In the marketing world where a product sells based on an intricate algorithm consisting of variables like sales force, prices, quality of the product, distribution and much more, advertising alone cannot take the kudos or the blame for high or low sales. The advertising awards therefore, are a great means of letting the client know that the ad was indeed an inspiring one and that it was a creative leap. These awards are so influential that they can change the fortunes of a floundering start up and take it on path of glory and success.

Advertising awards are not easy to come by these days! This is because there are a large number of creative hot shops and great thinkers doing the rounds. To top it all effective and inspiring advertising is no longer an easy thing to put together. No longer can you get away with attaching superlatives to adjectives and claiming 'New Super' or 'Better than ever before' shall definitely not win you anything. With the internet revolution and the growing consumer skepticism about the hyperboles, companies really need to think of creative ideas to communicate their message while continuing to sound authentic and genuine. Great ads require great creative ideas that are communicated effectively. High quality computer graphics has made this possible today. With the aid of these gizmos one can communicate visually and say so much more in just 30 seconds.

Consider the car ad wherein the car climbs a tough spiral mountain road but with the push of a button it magically converts the road into a smooth highway. The commercial obviously is trying to imply that the maneuverability of the vehicle is of such a high quality that driving on mountain terrain is as easy and enjoyable as driving on a straight, smooth and even highway.

Currently, using high-end morphing and computer graphic techniques, advertisers are able to create hype about the product. The issue really is how effective the next option is likely to be in the fight for obtaining consumer attention, keeping it and ensuring that the consumer is at ease and willing to accept the information provided in the ad as genuine and relevant.

Consumerism is here to stay but it is likely to become more and more difficult to convince consumers about the quality of the product or fool them by providing lifestyle ads. Maybe the advertising world shall come up with a new technique akin to the graphics available today, to be able to take on increased skepticism.
