| General | Slim pickings in the majority of categories, considering the looming Cannes deadline. Judges struggled to find three winners in each category, but the winners were clear-cut. Good to see the agencies putting effort into the AVs for the Ambient/Outdoor category. TBWA Chiat Day's Gatorade Replay AV set the standards last year, with the Pink Pony Party AV following close behind this year. In the radio category, single executions were picked out from within campaigns for both first and second place. On the radio front, a lot of really drawn-out one-minuters which struggled to hold the judges' attention. In the print category, the VW Ad Donation campaign stood out, while TV was generally poor this month. Good luck to all the agencies for the upcoming awards season - keep pushing, there's gold in them hills. Or a finalist, at least. |
