Advertising, ad campaigns, ad agencies, and the people that make it happen

In my apparent obsession with all things “Beer” it is fitting that with the news of  the final awards coming in from Cannes, the Guinness spot 'Noitulove' earned the film Grand Prix, with the Carlton Draught “Big Beer” spot (which I posted about a few weeks ago) finishing in second place. The other satisfying thing is that they are both “Real” beers, rather than those colored water “Lite” beers, so popular with “Man-Law” obsessed NASCAR fans. One of my other favorites, the  hilarious, “March of the Penguins” parody for Canal+, Pulled in a Gold Lion. Good stuff, not a talking animal, or after-shave wearing man being chased by semi-naked women, amongst them!

I suppose you think all this judging down here in Cannes is easy, don't you?
