GUEST JUDGE: DAVID GUERRERO, CCO, BBDO GUERRERO ORTEGA, MANILA

 GUEST JUDGE /BEST AD OF THE WEEK    March 05, 2008 17:28 (Edited: February 17, 2023 05:19)
https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/upload/David_GUERRERO.jpgAfter being bitten by a snake in Thailand, David Guerrero watched hours of televised sport to survive. He did so, but at the same time disastrously rekindled his love for English football. Fortunately he has been distracted by the task of founding his Manila-based agency and putting it in the top 10 of the region's creative league table in 'The Work' annual. He has also been named one of Asia's top 10 creatives by trade magazine Campaign Brief Asia. The same publication has named BBDO Guerrero Ortega Philippines Agency of the Year in 2006 and 2007. Last year he added gongs at Cannes, One Show and in-book entries at D&AD to an existing tally of Golds and a Grand Prix at global shows. He has headed a number of juries including AdFest, Melbourne and Cannes, the first from South East Asia to do so.

BEST TV
Although the message is a jingoistic bit of nonsense, there's no denying the power of White for the BBC. And despite a couple of other strong, if arguably derivative, contenders this one gets my vote.

BEST PRINT
American Psychois strong and simple. And it gets cleverer if you know the story and understand why it's a shirt and tie. However the Defenderad has a gloriously British sense of futility. Which, as far as I'm concerned, pretty much nails the brand. What a pointless product. Can I have one please?

BEST OUTDOOR
Either one of the print executions would make strong posters. While ironically, the Coastguard poster works a bit more slowly and would make a good press ad. Nice idea, nonetheless.

GIVE YOUR DOG CONFIDENCE

 TV   UK    March 05, 2008 13:48 (Edited: February 17, 2023 05:19)
https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/http://www.bestadsontv.com/files/thumbnails/2008/Mar/12212_Cody___Bear.png
DDB London has created a story of a small and nervous dog who feels so confident when he rides in the VW Polo that he sings his little heart out. Says Dylan Harrison: "The idea came from that feeling you get when you’re in the shower. You’re relaxed, you don’t have a care in the world and, regardless of your ability, you can feel free to belt out any song that comes to mind. This is how it feels to drive around in the safety of the Polo." Adds Feargal Ballance: "After the idea, the next challenge was finding the right track. When we eventually stumbled across ‘I’m a man’ by the Spencer Davis Group which we liked it instantly. Firstly it’s a bloke’s song - it’s manly, proud and coming from the mouth of a dog could be very funny. Next we needed someone to sing our song. We found a wonderful singer in Charlie Winston who has a fantastic voice, characterful and actually sounded like it was coming from our dog.
"The talented Mr. Noam Murro brought the entire thing to life. And even though we were working with animals Biscuit made it feel like the easiest shoot in the world. It was shot in San Pedro, Los Angeles over a relaxing 3 days."

A SLOW MOMENT OF SCHWEPPERVESCENSE

https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/http://www.bestadsontv.com/files/thumbnails/2008/Mar/12172_Burst2.jpg
Titled ‘Burst’ the campaign uses super-slow motion cameras to capture and bring to life Schweppes iconic branding, Schweppervescense - at 10,000 frames per second. Shot in Victoria, the campaign features stunning imagery of local surrounds including the Manchester Unity building, Little Collins Street and the Otway National Park. The result is a brave and bold departure from Cadbury Schweppes’ traditional advertising for its range of mixers, lemonade and mineral water. George Patterson Y&R CD Ben Coulson said: "It gets pretty interesting when a client asks you to bring to life 'the feeling of Schweppervescence'. It definitely wasn't going to be a traditional ad in any way." Director Garth Davis said: "This campaign is one of those rare gems. It’s not very often in a commercial realm, you can be truly artistic… testament to the strength of the idea and the client’s willingness to make something special (even if a little nervous!)."
