I reckon they'll do some killer work.
They probally already have, if they won the pitch that easily.
Plus who couldn't do a good beer ad.

Most of the kids are underage at Mojo, so they can't sample the product unless an adult is supervising them.

It'll be like it usually is in the NZ beer market...Start off with a half decent idea that gets strangled by numb-nuts clients, tortured by pre-testing and then shot by the Liquor Advertising Police.

Just ask Toby. I mean, they didn't start with Thirsty-homos for Export Gold, surely.

To the guy who said "Plus who couldn't do a good beer ad"... listen to the "numb-nuts client" guy, he knows what he's talking about.

I agree. I have worked on breweries accounts for several years and I've experienced the agony that is research groups. I have witnessed what started off as original, fresh-faced ideas being pecked to death by packs of grinning idiots; being slowly digested and finally shat out as soulless, box ticking polished turds. And what's worse, suffering the humiliation of a clueless CD sending the ads to Admedia with my name attached to them.

Gee, I feel much better getting that off my chest.

I third that notion.

Alcohol brands are generally double-edged swords with very sharp handles.

I'd love to work on the beer brands, good fun.
Albeit, a challenge by the sounds of it.

Some of the cliets I've experienced aren't all that bad.
Usually once you get to know them you realise they are pretty open to ideas and half the time it was those fucking suits that were holding you back.
"No they won't like it"
-Yeah right.
