Sydney sound house Eardrum Australia worked on a number of ads which have made the Cannes Radio shortlist. In total Eardrum worked on 14 spots within six campaigns for agencies including TBWA\Singapore, Impact BBDO Dubai and Leo Burnett Sydney for clients such as Energizer, Commercial Insurance and Samsung.

This is the most shortlisted ads ever achieved by one company in the radio category.

Says Ralph van Dijk, founding creative director, Eardrum: “Awards are a total lottery, but every year we seem to get luckier and luckier. We’re thrilled for the teams and clients we’ve worked with this year and hope they don’t all expect me to buy them drinks at The Carlton.”
