The Best Work In The World, The Best Job In The World
Thursday, July 2nd, 2009This year’s global advertising festival “Cannes” is over and the results and awards all announced.
To get the run down on all the work, view it, laugh, cry or just be puzzled, hit the official website here.
One of the most awarded campaigns, taking the Grand Prix in three categories (Cyber, Digital and PR) was CumminsNitro campaign for “The Best Job In The World“.
Sorry, I think its now too late to apply, but you’ll enjoy the case here:
JWT did very well, especially in Asia-Pacific.
To quote from Michael Maedel, our President:
JWT won a whopping 26 medals and 42 shortlists at Cannes this year.
Even though attendance and entries at Cannes may have been down this year, it remains the most prestigious award show in the industry and everyone who walked off the stage with a Lion or was recognized on the shortlist should be proud. Our commitment to product quality keeps JWT coming back to that stage year after year.
The final tally includes:
1 Grand Prix
5 Golds
9 Silvers
11 Bronzes
26 Total Medals
Asia Pacific did exceptionally well, winning 16 of those 26 medals.
Moreover, we collected awards in almost every category including Outdoor, Press, Design, Promotion, Direct, Film and Cyber.
“Augmented Reality” … where Reality and Virtual Reality Meet
Thursday, July 2nd, 2009Thanks to Abu Mallick JWT London for sending this our way.
A real life demonstration of “Augmented Reality” on a mobile phone – a world first from the Netherlands.
Take a look, fascinating stuff – where real world meets virtual reality – in this a demonstration of how geo-location combined with videography provides real life information on anything from how much it costs to stay a night in the hotel in front of you, where to find the nearest bank, who much the house in front of you would cost to buy.
Very clever stuff.
