Congrats to all film finalists. SOme great stuff in there.
Feel like I have to vent a bit about the radio Lions. It’s almost impossible for JayGrey’s ads to have been legitimate – APPS approved? My ass. A drunk dude would never fly. Total fucking scam.
Plus the Grand Prix winning spots are rubbish. Absolute rubbish.
There – I feel better. Only a little though.
Would love to know if Clems entered the Carlton Draught Tingle campaign.
You can find out everything than anyone entered on the cannes lions site – all film entries are up there at the moment – interesting what some people thought was worth entering…
I’m curious about GPYR’s Medibank ‘For Every Breath’.
Where can I get a look at this commercial?
I’ll tried youtube, bestads, exit and gpy&r etc.
Haven’t seen it o air either.
Can’t imagine Medibank ever making a creative ad. Hope it’s good.
