FCB Aotearoa has won both the Grand ORCA and the People’s Choice Award at the 2023 ORCAs, run by The Radio Bureau, and announced on Thursday 19 October.
This is the third year in a row that FCB Aotearoa has taken out both the Grand ORCA and The People’s Choice Award. 2023 marks the fifth year in a row that FCB Aotearoa has picked up at least one ORCA.
Leisa Wall and Peter Vegas, chief creative officers at FCB, said “We’re stoked the lads have upheld FCB’s winning record at the ORCAs. We might buy a little aquarium to keep them in. The ORCAs. Not Tim and Aaron.”
Judges comments on the DJ Save-a-Lot work include “Turning your brand mascot into a radio DJ so you can legally play with and reference huge music tracks deserves an applause. A lovely loophole, much like Stickman's head.”
The Grand ORCA and People’s Choice winners take away $5,000 and $2,000 in prize money respectively, and have won their client $5,000 and $2,000 radio schedules.
