To Boldly Go, elvis and Revolt have secured the top prizes in Ocean Outdoor’s annual Digital Creative Competition which rewards bold, original ideas that push the boundaries of Digital out of home (DOOH) advertising.


Gold in the commercial brand category goes to McVitie’s and To Boldly Go who reignite an age old British debate with Dare to dunk?, an interactive game powered by haptics, gesture control and chocolate digestives.

A panel of 23 independent expert judges drawn from the creative and media industries selected this year’s winners, which were announced at an industry event hosted by Ocean at Bloomsbury Ballroom in London. 


Ocean Outdoor UK CEO Phil Hall said: “If there’s one thing Out of home advertising excels at, it’s helping everyone to help each other. I don’t think I have ever seen so many brands and agencies rise to the occasion with an impressive set of ideas which are designed to tackle big problems and the vagaries of modern day life.

“From preventing skin cancer, tackling phone thefts or addressing the cost of democratic protest and tackling food waste, to much more light hearted dilemmas like how long to dunk a biscuit, the backbone of our creative industry is built on the craft of problem solving. I for one am inspired by this year’s quintessential cohort of winners.” 


Silver in the commercial category is awarded to Kwik Fit and VCCP for Road Happy, an idea that uses Ocean Vehicle React technology alongside the world’s corniest dad jokes to boost the mood of Britain’s beleaguered drivers.

Second prize in the non-profit category goes to the Metropolitan Police, Pablo London and Unlimited TMW, with an outdoor robbery activation which “steals” mobile phones from large format DOOH ads, alerting Londoners to the alarming number of street phone thefts.
