FCB Cape Town's six golds were for the categories: Campaigns below the line (Klipdrift KKNK); News Papers and Magazines (Deere John); Posters (Tik-Tik Bom); Design (Roomdrop); and Best Advertisement Originally in Afrikaans (Gatbom). De Villiers received the Prestige Award for his creative conceptualisation of the Deere John ads.
FCB Cape Town also received five silver awards and FCB Johannesburg also got gold Pendoring for its radio ad, 'Voorbarig'. Stefanus Nel, last year's Prestige awardee, this year struck gold for Lobedu Leo Burnett with his Pendoring 2005 Above the Line campaign 'Lost in translation/Snoek'. Nel became the first copy writer to win a Golden Lion at Cannes this year with an Afrikaans ad, the very one that won him last year's Prestige Award (Coca-Cola Twist's Rooibank/Althe/Stephanie).
Net#workBBDO received two golden Pendorings, one for 'Shopping' in the Truly South African category, and the other for the daring Aids awareness advertisement 'Big Daddy' in the Homegrown/Tuisgebak category. Competition in these two categories proved exceptionally strong this year.
The annual ceremony at Vodaworld in Midrand was the usual fun affair, packed with the elite of the Afrikaans media and advertising industry and the best goody bags in the industry! Klipdrift once again welcomed everyone with a 'vonkdop' - a lethal mixture of brandy and sparkling wine
The soulful Chris Chameleon (ex-Boo) entertained with his unique brand of music and heavy rockers Rooibaardt took the party into the 'moer-koffie' early hours. Soli Philander was master of ceremonies for the evening and his pithy patter kept things moving.
A record amount of agencies entered this year's Pendoring competition for excellence in Afrikaans advertising: 42 agencies, advertising schools, freelance copywriters and smaller creative companies took part, with more than 300 entries in the 17 categories.
Like last year, the student entries evoked mixed reaction. The finalists in the category student campaigns, New Media: Websites were extremely good, while the remainder of the entries in the student categories were disappointing, according to the judges.
"The professional entries of Websites can do themselves a favour and look at the student entries," is the opinion of judge Schalk van der Merwe, art director and copy writer at FCB Cape Town.
The full panel of judges consisted of Pepe Marais, creative director at Joe Public;
Roela Hattingh of the Vega School of Advertising; Leon Jacobs of Saatchi & Saatchi; Thebe Ikalafeng of Brand Leadership; Anne Grobler, marketing manager of OUTsurance; Linette Retief, copy writer; Heindrich Wyngaard, Rapport journalist; Konstant van Huyssteen of Ogilvy Johannesburg; Riana Scheepers, award-winning author and language fundi, and Schalk van der Merwe of FCB in Cape Town.
Pendoring was sponsored once again this year by its founder members: ATKV, Caxton, De Kat, Kopieskrywersforum, kykNET, Media24 (papers and magazines), RSG and Rapport. The main sponsors were Absa, Oracle, SABC and Vodacom, with additional sponsorship by Ads24, Kulula.com, Klipdrift, Ontbytsake, Newsclip, Sanlam and Swartland Wineries.
