https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/http://bestadsontv.com/files/print/2009/Sep/tn_23966_ParkinsonsAmbient1.jpg
The slowness, rigidness and shaking limbs often associated with Parkinson's Disease can make simple, everyday tasks virtually impossible.
For non-sufferers it's difficult to comprehend an existence where opening a carton of milk or using a telephone is an impossible task.
DDB/Rapp, Melbourne helped people experience this complete lack of physical control for themselves by filling arcade style skill-testers with everyday objects.
The agency then placed them around Melbourne, collecting $1 coins to fund help Parkinson's Victoria's research at the same time. In the first 12 hours over $5000 was collected.

Thanks to a distinctive one-second-sound, now anyone calling from a landline or cell phone can immediately recognize before the first ring if the number they are dialing to belongs to a Movistar cell phone or not.To communicate the news, Young & Rubicam Lima created a rockumentary type spot which displays a fake young band getting ready to rehearse in a garage, regretting the lack of understanding from the world to their music. The funny thing is that its greatest (and sole) "hit" is the one-second sound in question. So much effort "to reach the world" is however embraced by Movistar, who "adopts" the sound.

Guest judge: Andy Greenaway, ECD Asia Pacific, Saatchi & Saatchi

 GUEST JUDGE /BEST AD OF THE WEEK   ASIA    September 02, 2009 05:19 (Edited: February 17, 2023 04:19)
https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/upload/Andy-greenaway-web.jpgThis week's guest judge is Andy Greenaway, executive creative director Asia Pacific of Saatchi & Saatchi.
Andy has laid asphalt, cleaned hotplates, pulled pints, mown lawns, sold art (his own), modeled on a catwalk (before the beer belly) and has performed extensive fieldwork in elementary nutrition (he lived on baked beans and canned tomatoes for two years while at art college). He eventually stumbled into the direct marketing business at age 19 as a junior art director.
In 1991, he moved to Asia where he has had stints in Singapore, Hong Kong and Thailand. In 1999, he propelled Ogilvy Singapore to the top spot of the Campaign Brief Asia Rankings and helped keep them there for four years.
Andy left Ogilvy in 2004 to start his own mobile content business (which today sells premium content in more than 20 countries around the world). Andy joined Saatchi as Regional Creative Director SE Asia at the end of 2004. He has won metal in every major show including various Golds at Cannes and Clio. He's also won a couple of coveted Silver pencils at D&AD.
He has refused to write the full list awards down for our readers because he is now over 40 and he believes that kind of mental exertion can be dangerous at his age.

First: Starship Foundation. Very emotional with a nice, if not altogether surprising, twist at the end....

BEST TV
First: Starship Foundation. Very emotional with a nice, if not altogether surprising, twist at the end. Seeing the situation through the caring eyes of a child really pulls the heart strings and gives the situation more poignancy. I should imagine donations will come streaming in.
Runner-up: Lambstock. Certainly nostalgic. And very watchable. It did irk me a bit, though. Lambs are usually a sign of peace and gentility and we're eating the poor buggers. But hey, we are talking to meat lovers who are not so sensitive about the more symbolic aspects of lambs.

BEST PRINT
First: Big Game Poker. None of the print particularly takes me. But if I had to choose, the winner would be Big Game Poker. It's an arresting image which demonstrates the idea that underdog (or perhaps underzebra) can turn the tables in this tournament. On the negative side, I find the use of animals a bit punny when used in conjunction with 'Big Game'.
Runner-up: BCCA. I'm not smitten with this ad, but at least it's got a bit of humour in a category that's usually as dry as beef jerky. On the downside, I think it's an idea that's been done before in this category and others. So not original enough for me.

BEST OUTDOOR
First: Israel Cancer Association. An abruptive way to get across the skin cancer message. I feel the device is not original, though. We've seen it used by the Tate Gallery and many other brands over the years.
Runner-up: Faber Castell. I thought putting a poster of crayons next to graffiti art was quite neat. The only rub, I feel, is that graffiti is done by toxic spray cans, not gentle pastels.
