Congrats to the team at Patts!
Nice way to follow up the Defence pitch win.
Good to see that campaign going gold.
If that’s what women in the Navy look like, i’m not surprised they are getting their recruitment targets!
Good to see print gold going to big impressive work for real clients for a change.
I’m sure there was still a few telescope and condom ads in the show, but I like that this kind of stuff is winning in print.
Nice work.
Quality print. Nicely produced. Well done.
What’s the message, ‘We have a lot of people in the navy?’ How is this a recruitment campaign?
Boom-a-loom.
Well done Northo, well done Bagas!!! Gold at any show is class. Great campaign.
Congrats on the win.
I don’t understand how New York Festivals work? They seem to always announce winners? Is this the main show? Is this the only winner from Australia? It’s all so confusing.
That’s some lascivious print. Congrats big man. xoxoxo
It’s Kinsey from Mad Men
Beautifully crafted nothing.
But that’s advertising nowadays.
No pies left in Shanghai then.
Star come on. Come on star. Great to see your agency rewarding you for a job well.
Just what we need – a navy full of art directors, because thats about the only people who’ll find this campaign appealing.
Well done Northam. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bloke. Great stuff.
Good work Northam & Bagas.
Wooo Northam & Baggers!
Onya Northam! Top work. Top bloke.
Well done JB….
