The brief

Make an ad that gets stuck in people’s heads

It can be funny, strange, beautiful, or completely unexpected. The only real brief is that it should be impossible to get out of someone's head.

Dream up a fictional brand

A snack, a sneaker, a smart toaster. It doesn’t need to exist. The product, the name, and the personality are yours to dream up.

Make a 15 to 45 second ad

Long enough to land an idea, short enough to rewatch. Solo or as a team, and you can submit as many ads as your heart desires.

Build it around an original jingle

Make it in ElevenCreative. It should be original and catchy enough to hum after one listen. The jingle is the heart of the entry, so don’t skimp here.
