Seriously, who the fuck doesn’t care* about Axis?
*Share the Love
The problem is they’ve only included those agencies that are guaranteed to enter anyway. I would have thought a better strategy would have been to get the big agencies to “share the love” with smaller agencies. Encourage new blood into the competition. Anyone would think there are only 10 agencies in NZ.
There’s still no video to watch on that site.
The revised video is back up… much better.
Why not* bother entering this high* value award scheme, when it’s pretty obvious these brilliant* agencies are just goin to hand out these valuable* trinkets to those worthy*. Count me in*.
*Share the love.
2 (2.5) videos in and this concept couldn’t be more watered down than if the Ministry of Political Correctness came up with it
We won’t be entering anything. Not out of protest, simply because the new deadlines are moronic.
Not just small agencies that miss out. If you aren’t on the main judging panel, you won’t stand a chance. If they were in the same year, there is every chance the New World ads would have won over Ghost Chips. Sounds crazy, but that could have been a possibility the way AXIS is judged. The BNZ face recognition app will probably clean up best in show. What wins at AXIS is more about who is stroking each others dicks than what will go on to win internationally, and that is bullshit. Duster had it right to boycott.
