Screen Shot 2014-11-17 at 7.13.42 am.jpgOgilvy & Mather New Zealand has created a new summer campaign for Rebel Sport, following the successful winter campaign, Ode to Winter. The spot was directed by Zia Mandviwalla of Curious Film and features a V/O by Kiwi hip hop artist Ladi6.

Unlike Winter, which was depicted as a ‘foe’ to a more hardened group of everyday sports people, summer is conveyed as a ‘friend’ that coaxes all New Zealanders out to participate in any number of sports, casual or competitive.

Ladi6 was able to convey the inviting and playful words of the poem with her captivating and unique voice. This is her first TV brand spot.
