DDB Sydney creative duo Jim Curtis and Ryan Fitzgerald have taken the top radio advertising award in Australia, picking up the Gold Siren this morning for their fatigue detection technology ad for Volkswagen, while McCann Melbourne grabbed another award for Metro trains work.
The ad ‘Road’ also won two Silver Siren awards in the single and craft categories at the ceremony run by Commercial Radio Australia in Melbourne, with Curtis and Fitzgerald picking up free flights, accommodation and an automatic entry to the Cannes Lions competition next month.

Last year’s Gold Siren winners John Mescall and Pat Baron from McCann grabbed the Silver award for best campaign, comprising tree or more ads, for the ‘Metro Notify’ campaign which used the voice of comedian Jean Kitson to tell them if their train is running late. Listen to the spot here.
