Man – what a massive mess.

I don’t know if you have seen the campaign around with this flagship ad:

It is a campaign aimed at increasing tourism to Auckland from within NZ.

The whole thing is costing about 1.84 million. 

Of this 400k was spent on this ad. It shows an old fellow riding around the streets of the city going past shops and places that are meant to show Auckland in a good light.

It has a very stylised, European style to the production, the music is beautiful, it is shot and put together really well. But something about it drives me mad.

Media Moment

This rant first goes out on Nick D’s Breakfast on George FM 8 40 on a Wednesday Morning

Comedy Rules.

Last week on Media 7 we did a show on NZ comedy.

In it we touched on FOTC- -because it is impossible to talk about
comedy in NZ without doing so – their mega success has changed the game.
