Hell Pizza: Hell Afterlife Pay 'Buy Now Pay Later' schemes have exploded in popularity in recent years, but lately they've been receiving plenty of negative attention, including from government regulators, for trapping people into spirals of debt.So we launched our own pay later scheme for Hell Pizza that lets customers buy a pizza now and not pay until much, much later, when they're deceased. With no late fees or penalties. Agency: Yarn VIEW THE CONCEPT Reckitt: Desirable Outfits Every year, over approximately 220,000 tonnes of textiles end up in our already bursting landfills. A shocking number that Vanish is determined to reduce. Fast fashion has made it easier to throw clothes out and replace instead of looking after them. Vanish wants to shift this behaviour, by raising awareness of this terrible statistic and reminding Kiwis, that looking after your clothes is as easy as adding Vanish into every wash. Which also means that when you're tired of wearing them they'll still be in great condition to donate and be re-worn by Kiwis in need.Agency: Farrimond VIEW THE YELLOW DRESS AD VIEW THE PURPLE DRESS AD VIEW THE PINK DRESS AD Tourism Fiji: Where Happiness Come Naturally "Fiji.

In the lead up to World Kindness Day (Nov 16) the charity was very kindly given back up media space in magazines if paying brands didn't take-up the placements. Good thing for us, they didn't.So, we rolled out a print campaign that promoted random acts of kindness via a series of Public Kindness Announcements. But it wasn't a spray and pray approach. We worked very closely with our media partners to understand each magazine's genre. We then carefully wrote and designed each ad to be specific, contextual and hyper targeted to the readership of each publication. Resulting in ads that felt like they had a deep understanding of the reader.

While their routes can change, their job is always to take passengers from one city to another. In the Air Force, things are a little different. We used the familiar visuals of plane tickets to show the added thrills of Air Force piloting, because you're not just flying from Perth to Sydney, you're manoeuvring powerful jets at unbelievable speeds to complete the mission at hand. These are the kinds of flights you can't do anywhere else.Agency: VMLY&R AUNZ VIEW THE STEALTH AD VIEW THE FORCE AD VIEW THE SUPPLY AD Specsavers: Cowboys Squinting cowboys dramatise the need for polarised lenses in the latest 'Should've gone to Specsavers' campaign created by AJF.

Agency: The Warehouse Group PLAY THE SPOT Volkswagen Tiguan : This is not a Volkswagen For a small cost, Volkswagen aftersales offers servicing, repairs and genuine parts for Volkswagen vehicles. It means only a Volkswagen technician will service or repair your car, and only genuine parts will be used. The problem is, most people don't see the value in purchasing after sales given the prevalence of cheaper 'auto repair shops'. Volkswagen wanted to help people see the value in aftersales. So, we posed them a simple question; If your Volkswagen is serviced with anything other than genuine parts, then is it really still a Volkswagen?Agency: DDB, Sydney VIEW THE AD Latitude Financial Services: Let's The campaign is based on a great media insight that our audience is dreaming in their Instagram feed.

Problem is, for the Southern Hemisphere, those things don't represent Christmas at all. Down here, Christmas is in the middle of summer, not winter. But our warm and sunny festive identity is never represented. At a time of year where bigger brands with bigger budgets were perpetuating Christmas cliches, Air New Zealand wanted to build brand fame and foster pride amongst Kiwis, both at home and abroad. So we set out to give New Zealand a special gift - a chance to break with Northern traditions and embrace their very own Christmas identity - and put Air New Zealand at the heart of the holiday season in the process.

As the LGBTIQ community on both sides of the Tasman get ready to celebrate love at the Auckland Pride Festival and the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras (SGLMG), the majority still struggle with the smallest acts of public affection. This insight is the inspiration behind ANZ's latest campaign in support of the LGBTIQ community, a joint effort between agencies TBWA Melbourne and TBWA Auckland. #HoldTight aims to highlight this disparity and encourages all people across New Zealand and Australia and beyond to show their support. The campaign launches with a hero piece of film accompanied by heartfelt stories told by ANZ staff.VIEW THE SPOT Dulux: Observations For over 65 years the Old English Sheepdog has been synonymous with the Dulux brand.
