Langland was awarded ‘Best of Show’ for advertising to healthcare professionals for its international integrated campaign for Idis, raising awareness for the company which aims to help pharmaceutical companies connect physicians, pharmacists and patients with medicine that isn’t readily available. The campaign told real stories of how these people have been helped by Idis through emotional and educational films and powerful photography across print advertising, direct marketing and the website.
Unit9 was awarded ‘Best of Show’ for advertising to consumers for the ‘Life Saver’ initiative for Resuscitation Council UK. ‘Life Saver’ is a crisis simulator which can be accessed on a website or a mobile app. The simulator combines interactivity and film to teach life-saving CPR skills. Throughout the game, the user is thrown into situations where someone will die within ten minutes unless they move the device or press the key on a computer at the right speed. This allows the user to ‘learn by doing’, providing them with the knowledge to save lives in a way they are more likely to retain it.
