Tui Brewery, Saatchi & Saatchi and five keen lads have teamed up and brewed a special surprise for a good mate – by plumbing his whole house with icy cold Tui beer. It took months of planning, a team of the brewery’s best beer technicians, an up-for-it plumber, 14 cameras, a heap of kept secrets and a generous helping of fresh Tui beer to turn a house-load of everyday taps into a dream come true.

Despite what the competition say, all power’s the same, none of it is super. While they all dress it up and try and pretend it’s different, or flog you something else as well to make you think you’ve got a deal, but you don’t. Energy Online tell it how it is and deliver what people want. Which is this case is just energy, at a fair price, that’s easy to get. That’s not what most in the market are up to, so we decided it was time to call BS, cause power just isn’t super. This stunt, the first of three in our campaign, was created using real people. Over a month they were screened and tested, so they arrived at our ‘Energy Online sponsored University technology prototype test,’ believing they were on the brink of creating history. Instead, they helped prove a point – power, is power, is power, it’s all the same. But it can be brilliantly simple.

Beer ads have a long history of showing guys enjoying a brew, often at the expense of everything else. Spouses, commitments and those less worthy have often been fodder for blokey heroes who earn their beer through some feat of strength, cunning, comedy or a combination of the three. The decision to get away from those well-worn tropes provided an opportunity for Speight's, which has launched a new brand campaign headlined by an unexpectedly heartwarming spot titled 'The Dance' created by DDB New Zealand. A two-minute epic follows the story of two workmates who seem to be teaching each other to dance. We meet their wider group of mates, who stay after work to offer unsought critique. Mastering dancing quickly becomes their group project, and they approach it with the same laconic attitude you'd expect at Thursday night training for the 3rd-division social footy team.

Following the launch of ‘Little can be huge’ earlier in August, Spark have come out with the first of many stories extending moments from their launch ad with the help of Colenso BBDO. Dubbed ‘Celebrate Family’, the film is an emotional take on Spark’s ‘Little can be huge’ platform. Colenso CCO, Levi Slavin, says it’s a story about how a little thought, a little online research, and a little effort can make all the difference in the world. The film tells the story of a single mum and her 10-year-old boy in the weeks leading up to Father’s Day. Mum does her best not to show it, but we can tell that this is a particularly difficult time of year.
