The Top Screen Ads of 2012
In this roundup from the Encore and Mumbrella Annual, we look at the year’s best screen ads.
1. Telstra – Land Down Under
Launched ahead of the 2012 Olympic games, DDB Sydney’s spine-tingling rendition of Men At Work’s Land Down Under was a fitting tribute to the Australian athletes competing in London.
The band’s lead singer and guitarist Colin Hay directs groups of Aussies in a rendition of the anthem, including a school choir and an AFL team inspiring a feeling of patriotism rarely found outside the sports arena.
I hated that Telstra ad: too much AFL and rugby. League FTW!!!!!
Just a shame that TAC ad basically blames the motorcycle rider (accidentally or otherwise).
Are you people serious on that appalling Telstra ad? It was a turkey.
