Goa Fest 07- Exclusive Creative Showcase

The Goa Fest that was organised by the AAAI (Advertising Agencies Association of India) was a celebration like none other. If you were an advertising or media professional, it was the greatest time you could have and I really think the AAAI and the sponsors need to be really congratulated at the fantastic way the fest was held. There was always something for everyone. If you wanted to give the ads a break and just let your hair loose, then there was great music and more alcohol than the water in the ocean. If you wanted to network, catch up with old friends or meet the biggest ad guru's and talk, then you could do that. If you wanted to get wild and adventurous, there were the jet ski's, the banana rides and the para-glides that would give you all that and more. And then, if you just wanted to leave it all behind and loose yourself, there was the beach and the beach chairs right there. In short, if you were there, it's unlikely that you did not have a great time. Lastly, there were almost 3000 entries of creative work on display. During the next month or so, you can find a lot of those entries here on 2wenty 4our. The only hitch is that these were captured on a camera so the quality or the camera angles might not always be picture-perfect. My apologies to any inconvenience caused. If you see a post on a campaign you or your agency created you could send it to me on sandeepmakam@gmail.com so that they can be replaced if you wish so. I hope these posts will be of help to all those who could not make it to the Goa Fest 2007. I wish you enjoy these campaigns and congratulations to everybody who won. Cheers!!

My bags are packed and I'm all raring to go. The AAAI Goa Fest 2007, kicks off on the 20th of April at Cavelossim Beach in Salcete. Some of the biggest names and hundreds of enthusiastic young advertising folk will enjoy all the finest things that advertising has to offer.

I'm really looking forward to it to meet lots of old friends and all of you who've been together on 2wenty 4our. The blog will be down for the next few days but I promise to come back and share as much action as I can for those of you who could'nt make it. It's time to GO-AAAAAAAAAH!

Viral from Senthil Kumar @ JWT!

There's a cool new viral ad that's doing the rounds. It was created by Senthil Kumar from JWT. The bad part is that it does not have a client as yet. I love the idea and it does have you in splits after you've seen it. Go on to you tube and have a look at it here: www.youtube.com/screwonthebeach. Hope you find a client soon, senthil. Great work as always :)
