SILVER WINNER

Client: ADT Security
Title of Spot: Beep
Length: 60

SFX: Phone ringing
MAN: (UPBEAT LIVELY Man’s Voice message)

Hey, Jack and Carol aren’t home right now.  Please feel free to leave a message the time you called or come on by and rob us blind.   As I just stated, we’re not home.  A lifetime of our possessions are waiting and the key is under the ‘ol mat. 
Carol has got some really old family silver on the side table and her jewelry is in the bedroom, under the hair ribbons and such. 
There’s some cash in the closet in the Kenneth Cole Reaction shoebox.  You’ll find it.  And I’ve got a really nice watch that I never wear in my sock drawer.  No, no, not the Fauxlex, behind it.  You can tell it’s not real by the way the second hand clicks, but it’s still fun to wear.  Ok great.  We look forward to feeling violated by you guys. 

B-bye now.
SFX: BEEP.
ANNCR:

ADT is the number one home security system on the market. 

 



BRONZE WINNER

Name: Adam Ridgeway
Agency: Martin/Williams Agency / Minneapolis
Client: Boy Scouts of America
Title of Spot: Interesting Behavior
Length: 60

SFX: CELL PHONE RING
WOMAN: Hello?
MAN: Hello, is this Susan Mathews, Jake’s mother?
WOMAN: Yes.
MAN: This is Dr. Drummond, the principal at Jake’s school.
WOMAN: Hi Mr. Drummond. What can I do for you?
MAN: Well, It has come to my attention that Jake has been exhibiting some…interesting behavior.
WOMAN: Oh, really.
MAN: Tell me something; has your son been acting differently at home?
WOMAN: Well, he has been more helpful around the house.
MAN: Uh huh. And have you noticed Jake running with a different crowd?
WOMAN: We just signed him up for Boy Scouts. He’s seems to really like it.
MAN: (increasingly concerned) Mrs. Jacobs, do you have any reason to believe your son is experimenting with homework?
WOMAN: (Unsure how to answer) Uh…yes?
MAN: This is as I suspected. It is of my professional opinion that your son is…becoming a good student—and possibly an overachiever.
ANNCR: Studies show boys involved in scouting earn higher grades than their peers. They also have a higher chance of earning college degrees.
MAN: If this continues, your son could be looking at six-figures, maybe more.
