Whybin\TBWA Melbourne’s ANZ equality work wins Gold in PR at Cannes

Whybin\TBWA Melbourne’s work for ANZ bank has picked up Australia’s third gold at the Cannes Lions festival overnight for its Pocket Money campaign.

The campaign, which got kids to do chores then paid boys and girls inequitably for them, won gold and bronze in the PR category.

Sister office Whybin\TBWA Sydney and Maud picked up a silver for its own social responsibility campaign for David Jones, ‘It’s In You’, while Leo Burnett Melbourne and Insideout PR picked up bronze for its Headspace Reword campaign which aims to curb cyber-bullying.

The only gong in the Outdoor category for Australia went to ClemengerBBDO Melbourne for its huge Bonds ‘The Boys’ poster, which ascended as the temperature dropped lower.

The Grand Prix in that category went to Colenso BBDO Auckland for its DB Brewtroleum work.

Interbrand Sydney enjoyed success in the Design category with its Shifting Perspectives work for the Sydney Opera House winning a silver and bronze, while two pieces of work for the ABC from fledgling David Nobbay-fronted agency, Marcel Sydney, took out bronzes.
