Creative Director's Choice
Geometry Global: HealRWorld 'The smile of the child'
What caught my attention was the notion behind turning the heritage of words into a currency – it’s a smart way to connect people to Greece’s financial crisis. It gives an increased perceptual value to Greece through its cultural contributions and changes the question from a generic ‘please help’ to ‘let’s pay them back’ using our social media channels as the delivery method. That’s the strength in this campaign, being able to bring a provocative twist to a charity that hopefully people will start tweeting about.

For its latest campaign, confectionary brand Skittles gave up its colourful rainbow and released a special edition monochrome wrapper as a part of the celebrations for London Pride. The ‘Give the Rainbow’ campaign, created by Adam & Eve DDB, launched with an open letter admitting that ‘only
one rainbow deserves to be centre of attention’. There’s been a few brands releasing campaigns around London Pride this year, but this has to be one of the best we’ve seen!
