Skittles - Touch (Cannes Lions 2008) : TVC Cannes Lions Awards 2008

Skittles - Touch (Cannes Lions 2008)

A few months ago I blogged about the recent Skittles Campaign including spots such as “Touch” (above) and “Pinata“. Turns out, both TV spots were winners at Cannes 2008. “Touch” won Gold while “Pinata” was awarded a silver lion. I was glad to see that these spots won such a prestigious award because even though they are slightly awkward, they are genius. I’ve listed the information for the “Touch” spot below:
