RECORD 707 ENTRIES FROM AUSTRALIA AT CANNES
Australia has sent in a record 707 entries to the Cannes International Advertising Festival, proving no price is too high to win a coveted Lion.
There are 142 Film entries, 170 in Press, 170 in Outdoor, 69 in Cyber, 62 in Direct, 39 in Radio, 39 in Media and last but not least, 6 in Titanium. Australia has high hopes for Cannes this year, with several Titanium chances (Virgin 'Jason Donovan', Tooheys 'Stolen Glasses', VB 'Boony' and Lynxjet), and hopefully a Gold Lion for the Carlton Draught 'Big Ad'.

Who's gonna be doing all the work while Cannes is on this year? Word is over 100 people from Australia will be there (though not all bothering to regster).
Jason Donovan will be handling all of the work overflow. If you need him, he can be contacted on 0403 527 663.
What happened to just staying in Sydney and smoking crack?
He'll be doing that too. How else do you think he'll get all the work done.
We should all be ashamed of ourselves.
The money should be going to a good cause.
Like Furby's choice of charity - the 'International Campaign to Ban Landmines.'
Has no one seen this hard hitting, motivational through the line campaign? Its every where!
Fellow amigos, follow this mans lead. He know what he's doing.
Right Furby?
i'd like an atm card to the cannes entry fee account
please.
what a total waste of money, you could probably stop
the poverty of two third world countries with the entry
money used to pump up the egos of a load of red faced
advertising losers who will probably die of cocaine and
alcohol abuse at 50.
nice one. fucking advertising.
stick that in you're advertising awards list pipe and
smoke it cb.

Good point, 4:09, but as someone who is so obviously an art director you should make a greater effort to improve your appalling spelling and grammar if you want to enoble this ridiculous business.
Good point, 10.57, but as someone who so obviously likes to stereotype people, you should make a greater effort to improve your appalling proofreading.
Enoble?
From an Art Director who can spell.
Art directors do art.
Copywriters do writing.
screw you 10:57
You're obviously a boring suit
or bad writer with no life!
enoble?
A good Art Director can write and a good Copywriter can Art Direct (some times). So you are both fucked!
1:02 through to 7:38:
Haven't you lot got anything better to do with your sad little ad-obsessed lives than check out the Campaign Brief blog on weekends?
Now get off this blog and go art direct that award winning idea your writer came up with.
Enoble. I sn't that the name of Monty Noble's soon-to-be-announced E-Commerce start-up?
No, that's Mont-E.
To 1.37,
I posted at 1.02pm on Friday. You may not be aware that there is a 1.02pm which lasts for a full 60 seconds every day of the week. That's like the length of two tv of your little TV commercials. Your CSI skills are a little out on this one. Best stick to copywriting.
From 1.02pm (Friday)
Oh dear, 5:20pm Monday 5.6.06, you should have tv checked your copy before you sent it.
But thanks for pointing out how clocks work.
Stick to drawing up your writer's ideas, little man.
Saw that one coming from a mile off. The typo doesn't negate my point. And I'm not a man.
Are you hot?
Obviously not.
