“While a strong message is important when engaging audiences, creativity and context are equally as valuable when thinking about what will make a campaign memorable,” said one of the judges, Jessica Debrodt from the Art Gallery of New South Wales. “The way the Freedom Foods campaign embedded its messaging within the imagery of nature and juxtaposed it with an urban environment, is a great example of how to create a lasting impression across multi-formats.”

“With two thirds of the country in lockdown for several months, this has been a particularly challenging quarter for everyone,” said OMA CEO Charmaine Moldrich. “However, it did not stifle creativity in Outdoor and the entries in the Creative Collection Q3 are a testament to advertisers’ confidence in our channel. It was great to see advertisers use OOH environments, formats, and technology to strategically drive their campaigns.”
The competition attracted 19 submissions from OMA members including: Adflow, JCDecaux, oOh!media, QMS Media, Shopper, and VMO (Val Morgan Outdoor).
