KAZAKHSTAN.

We have recently partnered with Washington D.C. based client East West Communications to create a high awareness TV campaign for the Kazakhstan government. The 30 second spot will first air on the mega screen in New York's Times Square and will play there for a month. In addition it will also be played out worldwide via Euro News and CNN during the global leadership summit in Kazakhstan. The commercial has been created to celebrate the United Nations awarding Kazakhstan with 'International Day Against Nuclear Testing' on the 29th August, This year will be the 20th anniversary of closing the country's last nuclear testing site after independence from the USSR.

But you already knew that.

Uber's Managing Director Greg said, "It was a great honour to be invited to Kazakhstan by the government to produce this piece. Astana takes your breath away with its modernity and sheer scale. It is a brave stance they are taking to rid themselves, and hopefully the world of nuclear weapons. We are immensely proud of the result."

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED IF THERE WAS MORE TO LIFE OTHER THAN BEING RIDICULOUSLY GOOD LOOKING?

Following our success with Casio's collaboration on Hollywood blockbuster Avatar, we've been tasked by Casio to assist them with their new 'Exilim-Make-Up -Mode' camera. We have created a press and online campaign, as well as a micro-site for the Casio camera. It has the ability to smooth the appearance of your skin giving it the look of a professional make over, all with the click of a button.
Casio's Marketing Communications Manager, Sarah Salter said of the Campaign: "Uber's creative approach has once again answered the brief perfectly.'

Well done Rob 'Mugatu' Sandom on creating this smart campaign shot by Metz and Racine.
