Creative Showcase Grand Prix Awards 2006

winner 2008

The IAB/Microsoft Advertising Creative Showcase Grand Prix, a night celebrating the best online creative work from 2008. Endeavoring to top last year when we saw a Brazilian chatterbox, a rock n’ roll cow and talking hedges, this year we have seen the inside of a giant foster’s can, become authors in the world’s longest online story and joined a balloon race across the internet. With 5 awards up for grabs and over 135 entries throughout the year, competition was tough. Here are the 5 campaigns that really stood out in 2008.
