I know it's cliche but he now thinks outside the box when he's coming up with new creatives.

Bizarre.
Start with google and do some searches with your product to get some ideas flowing.
However, if you start testing these types of creatives you will get ads disapproved.
But thats part of the process.
What's the limit before FB shuts them down?
The only way to know, is to test'em.
Once you've found the line you'll be able to use that to your advantage when coming up with new creatives.
These types of creatives and framework doesn't apply to every time of business.
I'm well aware of that.
If you have some flexibility with your brand/business I highly suggest testing it out.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thanks,
