 TV Winner: Tommy Hilfiger. Each day has 1,440 minutes. It would have never crossed my mind before that I would spend 3 and a ½ of them just watching a navy blue blazer's journey. Even more surprising was to find myself watching it for the third, and fourth time with the same amount of interest. And to make things worse - or actually better - this is a brand I hardly relate to.I believe the film is fresh, engaging, has a great execution, nice turns and twists through out the story, and minor details like the sleeve that gets ripped and fixed that make it just... the winner. READ MORE All aboard the Instant Kiwi 'Scratchy Bus' To celebrate the new Instant Kiwi tickets with more prizes and better prizes, Mango created the Instant Kiwi Scratchy Bus Road Trip, a world first experiential concept.

In this slice of life scenario we see a man making his way to a destination. He seems ordinary by all measures but his reflection hints to us that he is the master assassin Ezio from Assassin Creed. As he walks through scenes we see people falling to the ground as though effortlessly assassinated. At the moment of impact with the ground the bodies reveal a reflection (in puddles, glass, etc) of their alter egos; antagonists from the game Assassins Creed Brotherhood. Their reflections appear as vivid game characters for a brief instance.Agency: Cutwater, San Francisco.VIEW THE SPOT Firing up interest in the Hollyoaks Digital Posters from 4creative for London Underground, to promote the popular UK show Hollyoaks.VIEW OUTDOOR  The new Samsung 3D FULL HD TV´s, give you an image so real demonstrated in this outdoor installation created by Leo Burnett, Chile VIEW OUTDOOR  Remind people that Defender is a legend the most iconic 4x4 in the world.

By changing the channels, viewers could experience the comfort of remotely controlled boot while the ad was being screened. Just as if they were actually at the showroom.VIEW THE SPOT  As the first work from GSD&M, the creative is part of a new platform for the retailer, Zales "You know her, We know diamonds," and gives a nod to the men in search of that perfect jewelry gift.
