SO&M SYDNEY'S McNAMARA AND DORRELL WINS EARTH HOUR CANNES PRIZE
Adrian McNamara and Lucas Dorrell from Singleton Ogilvy & Mather, Sydney have won a trip to Cannes for creating an integrated campaign for Purina supporting Earth Hour this year. Leo Burnett and Campaign Brief offered two trips to the creative team who
demonstrate the most effective and/or inspirational way to leverage
Earth Hour 2008.The judges - Mark Tutssel (worldwide creative director Leo Burnett), Andy Ridley (WWF) and Michael Lynch (Campaign Brief) - were unanimous in their decision.
Purina partnered with Earth Hour through an integrated campaign - a 15" commercial, 2,500 outdoor posters, and a direct digital push through 250,000 EDMs and an online landing page.
The idea centred around the playful curiosity of cats and the ease of switching off a light. The simplicity of the message was its greatest strength. Purina showed great support for Earth Hour, whilst also maintaining Purina's commitment to promoting a healthier lifestyle and environment for pets and owners alike.
Thank you to these agencies who pledged work with their clients to create Earth Hour themed campaigns and events this year: Saatchi & Saatchi, George Patterson Y&R, Clemenger BBDO, JWT, DDB, SO&M, BMF, Host, The Glue Society, Publicis Mojo, BWM, M&C Saatchi, Whybin\TBWA, BWM, Lowe Hunt, Euro RSCG, McCann-Erickson, The Campaign Palace, The Furnace, Naked, CHE, Grey, Badjar Ogilvy, Cummins Nitro, Samuelson Talbot, Smart, Marmalde, Spinach and Draft FCB. Just about the whole industry has put aside its cynicism and pledged to support this initiative.

No..singo had a no award policy for his creatives.
There's clearly a change going on in the dark tower ...
