We Need A New Shelf!

A great night for Initials at this year’s IPM Awards. The agency won two Gold awards and one Bronze award, and as a result, we need a new shelf to accommodate them!

Our Peugeot 208 Let Your Body Drive campaign picked up the two Golds. One was in the Automotive category, judged to be the best automotive campaign of the year. The second was in the Social Media category, always a hotly contested category these days, so it was doubly rewarding to win.

We were also delighted that our Unwrap Gold campaign for Cadbury won Bronze in the Foods category. This always attracts one of the biggest number of entries, so it was gratifying to see one of the UK’s high profile Olympic-themed promotions rewarded.

Congratulations to all our colleagues and clients who worked so hard on these campaigns, making it a memorable night at this year’s IPM awards.

Far From Pitch Perfect

Posted on June 18, 2013 by

By Mat O’Brien

Until Don Draper became every Creative Director’s pin-up, the Ad game hasn’t had that much memorable televised exposure. Notably, I can think of Steve Martin failing to secure a concept sign-off, thus ruining his travel plans, Mad Max using telepathy to bag the Nike account and the inspirational, yet incredibly self indulgent 2009 documentary ‘Art & Copy’.

So apart from the fantasy world of Mad Men, does the world need a reality show on advertising? AMC and Sky Atlantic think so. The Pitch, currently in  its second series, documents the new business pitch process between 2 U.S. advertising agencies from client briefing to final presentation. We’re invited into both agencies to watch their creative process in a fly-on-the-wall fashion.

For the seasoned reality show viewer, it would most likely fail to deliver on the expected standards of melodrama of the genre. Voices are rarely raised, nobody claims to write copy for their dead relatives with Coldplay playing in the background and so far, no tables have been flipped out of anger and we’re yet to see a Creative team that lives up to the standards of wacky as set by Jedward. The most defiantly someone behaves is nipping out for an hour to see their kids or to play the guitar at a gospel church.
