This next design comes from BBDO Guerrero (“the most awarded creative agency in the Philippines“) for Childhope. Nice packaging that contributes to a good cause.

Innovative campaign created by BBDO Guerrero, the most awarded creative agency in the Philippines. 100 of these cans were installed around Manila to encourage donations and show the difference that a small donation to Childhope can make a street child’s life. Now this is packaging that makes a difference!

Shipping box + hanger = hangerpak. Design and concept by Steve Haslip, a graphic designer from Wivelsfield Green, England. Earth friendly with a nice design. HELLA FRESH.

“The concept was fairly simple: I buy t-shirts online and they always come wrinkled and I always run out of coat-hangers. So I designed a sustainable, reusable way to send and keep your t-shirts. As you open the package you create a coat hanger. The packaging could be made from recycled material whether it is card or plastic and the only waste is the green tear-away tab. The t-shirt seen here is from Threadless. This project won a FIRST prize in the D&AD Student Awards 2007 category ‘What else do you do?’.”

It looks like Disney reused many of its past animations in new movies cel for cel. Quoted from WETR0X, the YouTube user who put the video together:

Looks like the Disney Vault has a purpose after all – to keep us from realizing how similar our favorite classic Disney movies truly are. According to this video, Disney only ever made one movie, and they’ve been tracing it ever since.
