Rivers of Light

“Rivers of Light” (Operación Ríos de Luz), a campaign run by the Ministry of Defense Humanitarian Demobilization Program in Colombia, has won a Titanium Lion at the 2012 Cannes International Festival of Creativity, along with a Silver Promo & Activation Lion, Silver PR Lion, Bronze Outdoor Lion, two Bronze Clio awards, and a Yellow Pencil at the D&AD Awards. Operation Christmas, an earlier campaign run in December 2010, involved lighting up four 25-metre Christmas trees to let guerrilla fighters in Colombian forests that it was possible to demobilise and come home. The Rivers of Light campaign in December 2011 involved sending messages, letters and gifts to fighters through their relatives and friends, inviting them to leave their weapons and come back home for Christmas. The messages were placed in illuminated airtight capsules and sent to the FARC groups camping by the rivers of Colombia.

Lukafe Intense or Without Caffeine

CasaLuker in Colombia ran a print advertising campaign contrasting the effects of its Lukafe Intenso brand and the decaf version, Lukafe Sin Cafeina. A decaf drinking voyeur misses all the action when a Lukafe Intense drinking woman reveals all. A Lukafe Intense drinking prisoner sneaks past a sleeping prison guard. A sleeping astronomer misses the moment while a local farmer, kept awake on Lukafe Intense, spots the UFO. Voyeur and Prison won a Silver Outdoor Lion at Cannes International Festival of Creativity 2011.
