The 60-second spot, by DDB Group New Zealand, encourages viewers to not just watch Sky—but join in and be a part of it. “The ad is all about creating intrigue, the quality of storytelling and strong character development,” said Andy Fackrell, DDB’s executive creative director.
The ad debuted on 29 September.
Mike Watson, Sky marketing director, said the ad is intended as a "striking and clever invitation" to see what the service has to offer, including live All Blacks matches, movies, and TV dramas from the UK and US.
