"Unskippable" Wins Shots Online Film of the Year

shots Awards Winners 2015: The Work

Published on 6th November 2015

GEICO's "Unskippable" work took home the Gold in Online Film of the Year at last night's Shots Awards ceremony in London. Winners were initially nominated by the shots editorial team before going on to be judged by a professional panel of industry experts from the global advertising community.

The Online Film of the Year category was judged by a panel of six: Murray Butler (Framestore New York), Falk Florian Eumann (Caviar Digital), Ben Liam Jones (Mustard London), PJ Pereira (Pereira & O'Dell San Francisco), Rob Pierre (Jellyfish Agency London), and Nick Turner (Razorfish).

The Silver Award went to Honda for their "The Other Side" work (W+K London), and Bronze to Harvey Nichols for "Freebies" (adam&eveDDB London).

Judge Rob Pierre commented on the innovative execution of the GEICO pre-roll -- "Great, humorous video. I felt compelled to watch it to the end. Overcomes the challenge related to skip-able ads brilliantly."

We couldn't agree more.
