Experience Vivid Sydney on Singapore Airlines' A380

Tourism NSW and Singapore Airlines ran on a joint promo contest and it is running now til 23 May 2010. Second phase will be following the winner's blog on their experience.

Last year I did the first season with a simple and clean look microsite. Reviewed last year as a learning, I have enhanced this year contest microsite to look more interactive, engaging, vibrant by using flash and colors that meet clients' expectation. In fact, both clients had contributed a lot of ideas to improvise the site in terms of guidelines, colors and content which media owner myself is also satisfied with the outcome.

For some background, Vivid Sydney is the largest annual festival of light, music and ideas in Australia featuring the spectacular illumination of the Sydney Opera House sails plus a vibrant line up of music, theatre and visual art performance, light displays and creative forums.

Singapore Airlines' A380 offers passengers unforgettable cabin experience, wider seats, spacious legroom, exciting KrisWorld inflight entertainment, and award winning cabin service!

Do you want this exciting holiday all paid for?

Prizes of 2 return tickets to Vivid Sydney on Singapore Airlines' A380, 3 nights accommodation and a sleek 14.1 megapixel Canon IXUS 210 to be won!

Join now! Contest ends 23 May 2010.

Be the extraordinary passenger!

I am currently working on this campaign which has taken enormous amount of time to coordinate and get it done. It has been launched this morning and I think it's pretty interesting idea to run after the best job in the world campaign in late 2007.

The campaign is targeting at 2 markets which is Singapore and Malaysia. Basically we're looking for a passenger with his/her companion to embark on an extraordinary taxi ride on a record-breaking journey of a lifetime in Western Australia! The journey worth $20,000/ RM45,000!

For playing your part, you will achieve fame, fun, and maybe - a fan club without paying a cent!

You and your companion will be personally driven by Western Australia’s most talented taxi driver around Western Australia, travelling through some extraordinary places, taking in some of the most extraordinary sights and experiences on earth!

We are looking for someone who is able to tell a good story, share a joke, and not be shy about playing up for the camera as you could end up on TV.

If you think you have what it takes to be part of this historic journey, nominate yourself for this extraordinary taxi ride!

Closing date: 5 March 2010

Web 2.0

the future is digital

let me know what you think of this video

This is an ad to promote a razor. I think the baby is too violent and unbelievable. Yet is quite humorous to exaggerate the character and carry out the message of how most father would feel when there is a new born baby in the family.

Captivate your mind and seduce your senses...by Philips Aurea

Light...Dark...
When you say it I can almost feel it.
It's hard to look at things directly.
They are too bright and too dark.
Sometimes we need to see things through a screen.
