Ogilvy’s Adam Barnes and Hywel James win March/April ORCA with their two KFC ads
Ogilvy’s Adam Barnes and Hywel James are TRB’s first winners of the new ORCA year with their KFC ads, ‘Poor Old $5’ and ‘Ginga Note’.
Commending their choice and direction of talent, one of the judges claimed he hadn’t heard such a great Mikey Havoc performance “since Push-Push topped the charts”!
Barnes and James now get to play host to TRB’s new ORCA Mark1 trophy until another creative team wins it from them. They also get $250 each, limited edition Martin Horspool certificates, a $5,000 radio schedule for KFC and they go through to the Grande ORCA finals where they’ll be in to win the trip for 2 to the Cannes Lions.
The judges also awarded a merit to M&C Saatchi’s Dave King for yet another “very powerful” spot for the NZ Fire Service.
King now also goes through to the Grande ORCAs.
The judges were Karl Fleet (Campaign Palace), Lachlan McPherson ( Publicis Mojo), Harriet Crampton (The Radio Network) and Chris Schofield (DDB).
ORCAs close the 15th of every month.

Such a talented boy my Adam.
…yet with an echo of those controversial Westpac special prints?
