yeah, Knitting is so hot right now.
It's kinda cool though.
1:34 pm NZST
I dunno, my breathable polycotton mix with a gossamer thin membrane underlayer seems to be nice and cool, and then hot, all at once.
That's a scam benefit right there.

I reckon it needs a bit of cross-stitching to brighten it up. Too depressing.
2:43 pm NZST
is that you nathan?

Congrats for digging yourselves out of retail. Been a while since we've seen a brand ad from vodafone. In fact... I can't remember the last one. Has there ever been one? Anyone?

THis ad was done by BBH London.
Re-voiced for down under I suspect.
3:08 pm NZST
Eeek. I take it all back.

If I view this ad, will I get some of the leftover 2003 Vodafone Warriors tickets?
3:36 pm NZST
3:08, it was Lowe London.
But you could be forgiven for thinking it was the Hegarty Empire, given it is tangential and extremely expensive.
Sometimes I wonder about agencies the size of BBH - do they have tanning beds for all their staffers who never see the sun, or is it so big it has its own micro-climate? Like Biodome without Pauly Shore perhaps.
3:52 pm NZST
Bio dome rocks.
"I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts"

"Pauly Shore is Dead"
You MUST watch this.
3:59 pm NZST

me thinks not many...
4:04 pm NZST

Sorry to get all ad geek on yer arse Gavin Larceny, but check yer facts.
BBH did the TVC, written by Nick Gill and Ewan Paterson. Who work at BBH.
Work at Lowe then, do you?
PS why would Vodafone go to DDB? Is there a rumour? Or are we starting one?

Doesn't that ad have a website as part of the campaign?
A website where you get to give life to something and put your name on it so you can show your friends?
And doesn't that website look suspiciously like another website for a local Pro Bono?
5:20 pm NZST
word is that vodafone is up for pitch shortly and DDB have a leg up due to the wrc pr connection.
5:21 pm NZST
Hi My name is Robin, I work at Vodafone. We've been calling DDB for weeks now. No one answers the phone. Is there any one there? We didn't think there was, but who else would lamely plant ddb's name in this post.
5:21 pm NZST
I really dislike the ad when I imagine it with the english v/o. Just another crap nature doco ad.
Good job with the kiwi v/o on it, who was that - Dave Gibson?
5:22 pm NZST
Yes it was. (Dave Gibson)
5:59 pm NZST
do DDB make knitting ads?
8:12 pm NZST
No that's Saathci.
9:12 am NZST
I mean Saatchi.
I work there and I can't even spell it.

I made a cross stitch ad once (who hasn't?) - does that count as knitting? Stitching and Knitting are quite close aren't they? Can a girl please confirm - I'm thinking of entering it into the Knitting Category but don't want to get outed as a scamster.

9.18am I'm a girl - no wait, let me check under my knickers & top.... yep. Everything's still there. (I've been working on a testosterone-laden client all day).
Cross-stitch is when you carefully put little x's into squares - just like putting together a media schedule, only it's the backing cloth that's getting stitched up and not the client.
Knitting is with two needles and a long bit of wool that you pass over & under the needles to form knots. Sorry, no clever analogy available.
To achieve a really retro feel to your scamster ad, have you considered macrame? It was big in the 70's and involved cleverly twining bits of string together to create pot holders, string leather belts, handbag straps, that sort of thing.
Good luck!

This constant cross-stitch knitting comedy is funny.
Hang on, no it's not.
2:08 pm NZST
The quality of blogging is a bit low at the mo...hang on all the CDs are judging Axis...I wonder...
2:10 pm NZST
Josh Moore. There, that should liven things up.
11:50 pm NZST
Word is Lowe are looking seriously at Sky.... you heard it here first.
9:31 pm NZST
I wonder if they see any cloud.
