The pigeon viral

2007 April 4

Just a few minutes ago I saw this ad on television for ‘de gouden gids‘ (yellow pages) that is very similar to the viral we did with AKQA London a couple of months ago for the Communication Evolved campaign. I don’t know who the agency is of ‘de gouden gids’ but take a look and let me know what you think.

    I also saw this ad yesterday and had exactly the same deja vu feeling :)

    Shame on the agency

    No, it’s Duval Guillaume Antwerp. They just lost the account and Bananas is the new agency

    Latest Vodafone commercial is done by LG&F. For the details, check out coolzOr (http://blog.coolz0r.com/2007/04/02/nerd-alert/)

    And the Gouden Gids commercial, well, I don’t think it’s Duval Antwerp any longer and Bananas is a brand activation agency… who nows the correct answer?

    You’re right for LG&F (I just checked on mediavillage.be). I couldn’t find the gouden gids commercials but they have Duval-Guillaume Antwerpen as agency

    Indeed, since mid January 2007, the Promedia agency is Bananas.

    I never saw the Microsoft Pigeon Commercial of Microsoft, but have you seen the latest campaign of Toerisme Vlaanderen which is a copy of the Gouden Gids creative platform?
