SYDNEY, Tuesday: Best Ads on TV judge Rod Henriques has selected FCB NZ’s Fire & Emergency NZ Smokey as the Best Interactive Ad in the world during the past week.

Henriques is executive creative director at Grabraz & Partner, Hamburg.

“Most of us would probably speak about this topic in a more serious and dramatic way,” he writes.

“I found interesting to use humour as the trigger to remember people to check their smoke detectors. How they made the idea escalate through different channels even involving kids’ education is also unseen.”
