Who’s it for: Meridian by Assignment Group and Perendale
Why we like it: Wells works very well as a quirky Meridian mascot and manages to spread its renewable gospel in a non-preachy, sensible and entertaining way. Plus, it shows off some of the best bits of New Zealand and there’s a pretty good story behind the ad too.
Who’s it for: NZ Book Council by Colenso BBDO and Octane Digital
Why we like it: Much like the previous powerful effort for NZ Book Council, Going West, the time-consuming paper artistry on display for the follow up well and truly captures the attention and shows how books can shape lives.
Who’s it for: Shapes Roadies by Y&R Auckland and Finch
Why we like it: Many New Zealanders didn’t take too kindly to the glut of manvertising that was foisted upon us last year. But, judging by the response to the absurd and very entertaining campaign for Roadies, they seem to like manchildvertising. Some bravura performances in the backseat on display here.
The two winners of the Doritos Crash the Superbowl competition (both creators got a million dollar bonus, apparently).
Surely the best ad ever made for a tattoo parlour (and check out how life imitates art at the end).
All this year’s Superbowl ads in two minutes.
Ghost Steve Jobs will come back to haunt you, Action Electronics.
It’s not particularly Woopy, but this is a cool idea for a modern business. Art goes digital—and social.
How cereal boxes have changed over time, Mad Men posters greatly improved, The Herald on Sunday tows the cow, sheep are inheriting Middle Earth, Hipster Hitler, Rickrolling in a report on a field trip, all you need to be an evil overlord, and this is definitely not a set-up for a movie.
