The Grand Prix for Whybin /TBWA Group Melbourne honoured the jubilantly garish 'GAYTMs' the agency created for ANZ bank during the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.
Gold winners included:
- In Media: PHD India / Lowe and Partners Mumbai and FCB New Zealand
- In Mobile: DDB Group Singapore, Bascule Tokyo, DDB Group Melbourne and Lowe and Partners Mumbai
- In Outdoor: BBDO Proximity Singapore, Dentsu Tokyo and Hakuhodo Tokyo.
However, with the exception of Creative Effectiveness and Mobile, the juries don't seem too impressed by work from the region, at least so far. Considered against the region's population and economic vitality, the numbers tell the tale. We will leave it to other to speculate whether the numbers arise from a lack of entries, lacklustre work or an unjust lack of recognition on the part of the juries.
