Target was once again the big winner at the ICE Awards, which recognizes the best work to come out of Atlantic Canada’s advertising industry.
At last night’s gala, the agency was awarded Best of Show for “Sound,” its latest campaign for Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism.
Target has become fairly well-known for its visually stunning ads for Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism – including an impressive haul at last year’s ICE Awards. But for this year’s campaign, the agency utilized the unique sounds of the province to appeal to the senses of would-be visitors.

Wunder won four Gold and two Silver for work it created for building company Bruno, Nova Scotia Webcams and its own self-promotional work.
