#1/ Pick Of The Day

Be careful where you pick and especially what you pick. In the video a fan who is completely oblivious to the fact that he is caught on the big screen searching for gold, if you know what I mean! During an AFL game, Kia Australia swoops in and grabs the opportunity to suggest that the miner in question wouldn’t feel quite so uncomfortable in the all new Cerato. The video received a whopping one million new views in just 3 days.

#3/ Boost Mobile “Cell Block” T.V. Spot

Ever had the feeling of being tied down, each time you get into a new mobile network? If your answer is yes, you know what Boost Mobile is talking about. The brand has stressed on the fact that each time you switch your phone or network, you are forced in to a contract. Not only can one relate to the video, but the prison metaphor truly captures the situation that many are in.

#5/ Miller Time Internship Episode 1: Philly

An RV, an open road and enough Miller Lite to get the state of Nevada. Miller sends 4 best friends on an internship which is actually in the form of a road trip. The interns have to complete various fun exciting and slightly embarrassing tasks such as bartending at the Xfinity, popin cans and learning cheer steps. Why weren’t these kinds of internships available when I was younger?!
