Mars Foods Inc. Hong Kong "Snickers - Hungry Slip-Ups" campaign was crowned the top winner this year snatching the "Best of the Best - Creative Platinum Award" and the "Best Poster Campaign Gold Award". Leveraging Hong Kong''s most gossiped slip-ups of politicians and celebrities, Maxus Hong Kong, BBDO Hong Kong and Mars Foods created the smartest series of ad messages blaming "hungry" as the reason for the "slip-ups", and claiming Snickers as the snack that can rid of hunger in seconds. MTR* advertising''s trackside poster was chosen as the campaign''s media platform for its captive environment, which is ideal to deliver its fun, direct and attention grabbing product message effectively to target audience.
The "Ocean Park Summer Splash 2015" campaign, which has gained equally vast support, won the "Best of the Best - Use of Media Platinum Award" and "Best Use of Digital Media Gold Award". The Digital Escalator Crown Bank at MTR Causeway Bay Station was fully utilized to create an immersive and engaging environment, while animations of a bunch of popular and adorable LINE FRIENDS having fun at Asia''s first indoor water party at the Ocean Park Summer Splash were lively shown on the Digital Escalator Panels.
"HKTVmall Summer Giveaway" campaign won the hearts of the Hong Kong public and our youngsters. It was honoured with the Gold Award in "My Favourite Campaign" and Silver Award in "Youth''s Favourite Campaign" categories respectively. Unprecedented in the history of MTR* advertising, the mega campaign spanned all trackside advertising space in the entire network with 51 MTR stations and 2 Airport Express stations, leveraged the name of each station to "personalize" the free gift for nearby residents. The clever and colourful creatives not only amused the commuters but also left memorable impressions on them.
"Cathay Pacific Airways - 40 Years of Fun" Campaign has won the Gold Awards in both "My Favourite TVC" and "Youth''s Favourite TVC" categories. Celebrating 40 years of the Hong Kong Sevens, Cathay Pacific''s TVC featured its flight attendants, dressed in uniforms of the last 40 years, gracefully walking through the streets of Hong Kong from past to present.
