Bicycle accidents on Australian roads have increased dramatically, but what's more alarming is the severity of head injuries incurred due to the use of inadequate safety helmets.

BMF’s new campaign for The Newspaper Works aims to remind us that in today’s increasingly fragmented media marketplace, newspapers provide an incredibly powerful channel for advertisers to engage with consumers.

The campaign is aimed at advertisers, marketers, media buyers and planners, and dramatises newspaper’s core strength; unlike other media that are simply flicked through or passively consumed (often simultaneously), newspapers are the most engaging media of all.

We are reminded that newspapers are a destination, not a distraction. People who read newspapers are in the right mind space and actively seeking information, which is a perfect environment for advertising messages to stick.

The Brief

John Dolan of Anonymous Content directs this action packed, high drama spoof of “The Bourne Ultimatum” trailer for Volkswagen. Jason Bourne careens around New York in the VW Touareg 2, trying to outrun an army of police cars. As he collides with a cop car, both vehicles flip through the air landing in a heap. Next thing we see is the Bourne character next to the Touareg seemingly unscathed and about to hurl an expletive, when the VW tag line flashes…
“Safe Happens.”

Dave Monk & Matt Wallop, BBH London will be this week's guest judges. Dave & Matt will be choosing the "bestad of the week" from last week's featured TV & print /outdoor.







BEST AD OF THE WEEK - TV:
https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/http://bestadsontv.com/files/thumbnails/2007/Aug/7945_billboards.jpg



We're suckers for a vignette ad, and particularly ones with Gene Wilder singing Willy Wonka songs, so we were very fortunate this week that the good folks at bestadsontv happened to come up trumps. Here we have an ad for sky movies showing how nice it is when things aren't interrupted by ads. A bit of an odd dichotomy for people who write ads for a living, in fact we probably shouldn't really have chosen it as best in show. never mind, it's still a very worthy winner. Lovely.

We liked the idea of the Stella "innovative brand experience", but without actually being able to experience it, we couldnt really award it this weeks best. However, it did sound very interesting so we gave it third place. It was down to two, Suicide versus Eurostar. After a lengthy discussion we decided that the Eurostar ad was a funny image, but ultimately it made us feel a bit sick, so awarded it second place. Therefore, we decided the Suicide Prevention Centre campaign should be this weeks bestadsonawall. A very clever piece of visual communication and the most creative thing this week. Marvelous.

A few words from the director - Michael Spiccia....


The one thing that I always had in mind whilst making this spot was that I wanted to seamlessly integrate the cubic devices in such a way that it didn’t come across as an ‘effects’ film. I wanted to convey complete reality and a nostalgic feeling through the use of our central characters, who take us on this observational journey before arriving to their unfinished home.

BOGUSKY, CLOW AND DROGA FOR YOUNG GUNS CALL FOR ENTRIES CAMPAIGN

 LATEST ONLINE   CANADA    August 10, 2007 02:48 (Edited: February 17, 2023 05:19)
https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/http://bestadsontv.com/files/print/2007/Aug/tn_7975_youngguns.jpg
UPDATED - The Young Guns International Awards recently launched its 2007 Call For Entry campaign by reminding us all what it was like to be young and inexperienced award show virgins, through the http://www.letusbeyourfirst.com website. (They have just followed that up with a trade press campaign now running around the world with their media partners.)
Here is told the story of three young creatives looking to enter their first award show, but just not managing to get a break due to bad briefs, inexperience and uncertainty; highlighting some of the problems that all young creatives face.
In their darkest hour of despair, "The Wise Bogusky", "The Baby Droga" or "The Holy Clow" magically appear providing what can only be described as acerbic advice and then disappear again.
This whole hilarious interactive escapade is set on stage and themed as a bad musical, narrated by a fat cherub in a nappy, with the three young creatives frequently breaking into song about the issues they face.
Created by Taxi Canada Inc, the three act musical will have a new act at regular intervals featuring Alex Bogusky and Lee Clow (both are now online) plus David Droga (sson). The site has a number of interactive layers, including a music video which will be released later. The campaign itself is multifaceted with online, DR Posters and magazine ads.
Act 1 with Alex Bogusky and Act 2 with Lee Clow is now online.
