Tips for winning the Big Game Ad Challenge
Creating a standout ad is about more than flashy visuals. It’s about storytelling, originality, and execution. Here are a few tips to help you shine:
1. Start with a strong concept
Before opening the AI Toolkit, define your idea. Ask yourself:
- What’s the story?
- What emotion should it create?
- Why will people remember it?
A clear concept will guide every creative decision.
2. Use AI creatively, not passively
Artlist AI tools are there to enhance your vision — not replace it. Experiment, iterate, and combine tools to create something unexpected.
3. Focus on impact
Big Game ads are memorable because they’re bold, funny, emotional, or surprising. Don’t play it safe. Take creative risks.
4. Keep it polished
Even short ads need strong pacing, clean visuals, and quality sound. Pay attention to details — they’re what separate good entries from winning ones.
It’s anyone’s game
