This recent print campaign for Prime TV via DraftFCB, Auckland was one of this week’s Bestads Top 6.
Man Vs Wild is a popular TV show where adventurer and ex S.A.S.soldier Bear Grylls is dropped into an extreme environment with littlemore than the clothes on his back. His mission is to survive. A largepart of survival is finding food and water and Bear goes to greatlengths to find sustenance from highly unlikely and often disgustingfood sources. These ads are a tribute to Bear Gryll’s adventurouspalette.

I’ll already seen this on various sites around the nets. when people post your work for free it’s got to be good. Love it.
These ads make me want to spew.

You have no idea how wrong you are.
is anyone ever going to do anything that’s actually hard?
Isn’t Man Vs Wild about survival? Sure eating odd things to survive is a small part of it, but the bulk of the show isn’t him walking around eating bugs and wild life, is it? I mean if I didn’t know what the show was about I’d be thinking it’s some kind of weird cooking.
love it Kelly and co. Good on ya
Sorry 2.01 PM – hard would require some actual thought.
The work could have come out in 1995. It’s dated. Nothing new here. Move on.
2:01 – Is that the idea to do something hard and impress your mates or to do something that people actually get.
mmm manvswildtastic. good work dudes!
I like this campaign. It’s Simple and clever.
Nice work guys.
Simple. Effective. Memorable. Love it.
It’s been ages since insects won at Axis. About time this one came round again.
Just in time for Cannes! Well done.
yeah um, DDB did very similar for maccas a while back. Something about ‘now
serving salads’ and a shot a of fries made from corn sticks etc etc.
was pretty average even back then.
I have no idea why people like this.
Oh well.
Beautiful retouching Denny. I’d eat the zebra for sure.
