Local TV commercials among world's best
Two local TV commercials, both for Chicken Licken, caught the attention of international advertising website www.bestadsontv.com this week, 6 April 2009.
Creative director Matthew Keon, from Fallon in London, was the judge and he chose two out of the four ads produced recently by Net#work BBDO, in his top six choices from around the world.
The first one, called Chilly the Snowman, trails the life of a snowman whose ‘adopted' family introduce him to Chicken Licken's spicy “Soulfire” chicken. You can guess what becomes of him. A burger singing Elvis Presley's “Love me Tender” is the theme for the other winner. Keon said both ads really entertain and deserve their top placing. Net#work creative director Graeme Jenner says it's great when SA's work gets recognised globally.
