THE POWER OF Tj

 LATEST ONLINE   NETHERLANDS    September 30, 2007 03:54 (Edited: February 17, 2023 05:19)
https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/http://www.bestadsontv.com/files/print/2007/Sep/tn_8892_PVTj_website_1.jpg

Teens in the Netherlands can get an annual tax rebate from their part-time job. This is applied for with a Tj-form.
In this campaign, titled “The Power of Tj”, the Tax Department emphasises the effect that the Tj-form can have on your image. Teens can experience this for themselves by playing the lead role in an online interactive comic book. As the hero of this story, he or she can summon the Tax Department employees to help them out of a (financially) tight spot with “The Power of Tj.”
After experiencing “The Power of Tj”, teens can calculate their actual rebate using one of the crazy contraptions found in the Tax Department’s offices. Once they submit their tax rebate application they unlock a reward that allows them to experience The Power of Tj in real life!

To introduce Flat Rate from Orange, VitruvioLeoBurnett, Spain has based its work on a key characteristic of the Orange vision: technology and products are nothing in and of themselves, what is important is what this technology allows people to do. This visual expression is a simple metaphor for the communication process, of how we are enriched every time we communicate with somebody; as such, talking with people is an enriching experience. “That’s why at Orange we want you to talk with everyone”. And so that you can talk with everyone, Orange offers you Flat Rate, which allows you to talk with absolutely everybody.

GUEST JUDGE: JUREEPORN THAIDUMRONG, ECD, JEH UNITED BANGKOK

 GUEST JUDGE /BEST AD OF THE WEEK   THAILAND    September 29, 2007 01:12 (Edited: February 17, 2023 05:19)
https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/upload/Judee.jpg
Jureeporn (Judee) Thaidumrong is one of Asia's most respected creative directors. She has won every award going, including Golds at Cannes, Clio, One Show and won several Best of Show gongs at the regional shows. Judee has twice topped the Campaign Brief Asia Creative Rankings and over the past 12 months was named in Creativity Magazines 'Creative 50' and in Shots' 'Top 100'.

"The best TVC is very hard for me to pick. I have two in my mind; both are super craft in the area of production which gives more value to the spots. They are X-BOX Hola 3 "Believe" and Nike "Leave nothing".

For X-BOX "Believe", I feel, like, if I were a boy or was a boy; this ad will make me want to jump in for this game. There is such a great visual in the dramatic model... so new... so amazing to look at. The Michael Mann production, Nike, is superb even though it is only another "Just Do It" ad but this one jokes with the common phrase "Leave everything on the field"... so cool!! But if I really had to choose between these two; (so hard to decide!!) I would pick "Believe".

VIEW HALO3
VIEW NIKE

I almost couldn't decide in print but there are two ads that catch my eye - Fayreform Lingerie "Work your curves" and Time Out Magazine "Time Out Lisboa". I'm not that sure if the creative of "Work your curves" is actually targeting women because the first thing that caught my eye was the fake ape... so funny!! The other one, Time Out Lisboa with the headline "what you do at home is your business, what you do outside is ours", all I can say is Funny, Funny, Funny."

If there's truth in advertising, audiences at this year's Vancouver International Film Festival will be unfazed by four new identity films from TBWA//Vancouver which open each screening.
Directed by the Perlorian Brothers, the campaign demonstrates strange immunity which results from the exposure to the festival's famously outre line-up.
Despite references to David Lynch, Jean-Pierre Melville and Tobe Hooper among others, each of the films exhibits the particularly Perlorianesque weirdness that is hard to remain unfazed by.

The task undertaken by Leo Burnett, Budapest was to boost sales for a SMS based djuice package at a great price in spite of the price war on the market and the fact that these days SMS is so much a commodity that it's not exciting anymore for their young target audience.
The solution: the agency reinvented the fun and entertaining side of SMS via a new service idea rather than a campaign idea. The new service is the SMS SINGING which was presented as a crazy invention of an ordinary wedding singer, SMS Bandi, who sings out your sms live on his website.

NEW HALO 3 CAMPAIGN GOES TO AIR VIA GO FILM

 TV   USA    September 27, 2007 21:38 (Edited: February 17, 2023 05:19)
https://www.bestadsontv.com/news/http://bestadsontv.com/files/thumbnails/2007/Sep/8848_GOFILM_-_xbox_Enemy_Weapons_2_copy.jpg
The new Xbox Halo 3 campaign directed by Simon McQuoid from GO Film for McCann Erickson San Francisco.

Said McQuoid: "The key for us was imagining the reality of it, the characters, the actors, the performances. The CGI and effects are simply support to tell human genuine stories. I wanted an actor who could portray a world-weary warrior who has been through a lot, but who also has sensitivity. Ultimately, I am drawn to performances with integrity and humanity about them; these war veterans needed to feel totally genuine in the way they paid homage to the Master Chief. He is after all, the quintessential unsung hero."

Simon also gave us an anecdote from the set: "During the shoot, bloggers were working feverishly to uncover and share the filming location. It's understandable. I play Halo myself. I'm a fan. I tried to infuse my spots with the right excitement for my fellow gamers. I worked a lot at getting the details right, making sure it would resonate with the fans and have a visceral quality to it."
