To sell an immune booster, Saatchi and Saatchi South Africa have teamed with comedic duo Derick Watts & The Sunday Blues (Nic & Gareth) to create an interactive campaign for Efferflu C Immune Booster, dubbed Project Trapped.
The activity features the duo mistakenly embarking on the holiday of a lifetime only to discover they're going to be locked in a hotel room for 5 days as part of a social experiment created to dramatize how Efferflu C Immune Booster helps keep you healthy.

Here's some fantastic work from CP+B for A.1. Steak Sauce which is changing its name to, simply, A.1. Sauce. To make the move, the agency created a humorous video during which A.1., who is "in a relationship" with Steak decides to accept friend requests from others -- such as salmon, green beans, lobster, bacon and many more -- which ends up making things "complicated" for A.1.

The press release for this campaign promoting South African news channel WWW News describes the efforts three videos as yawn-worthy. We'd agree. But we'd go a step further and call the entire campaign yawn-worthy.

High up on the list of fashion disasters is the dreaded fanny pack. It rose to infamy in the late 1980s and early-to-mid 1990s. And, for the most part, you don't see them anymore.
