GE spends 40% of budget on post-production in first national ad campaign
GE has launched its first national ad campaign in Australia, as the company looks to promote its sustainability and healthcare credentials.
Created by Clemenger BBDO Sydney, the special effects-heavy campaign introduces the line, “What a difference two letters can make – that’s GE.”

Special effects and post production, done through Fuel, made up 40% of the production budget of the ads.
It’s very well executed. I think the Feds and Fuel have a lot to be proud of!
Nice ad but…
No mention of their usurious financial services business which is what most Australians will know GE for.
And please when are we going to see a corporate TVC without a man in an Akubra and/or red cattle dog?

What is 40%, $50,000?? and also what is six times longer in post mean… they had a one day shoot and six days in post??
Well ofcourse it was 40% of the budget…….. it is Clemenger.
I agree with Alison. Regardless of how the time is divvied – the outcome is a memorable, well executed piece of work
don’t they talk about finance about halfway through? Cute
“I agree with Alison. Regardless of how the time is divvied – the outcome is a memorable, well executed piece of work” – that been done a thougsand times before….
Well, I think the dog was the best part of the commercial.

Agree Gezza. Though I wonder if they deliberately avoided the connection, given GE Finance is high interest product perhaps seen in a negative light?
Loved the dog! And it is a Kelpie not a red cattle dog.
what would jack donaghy (30 Rock) think of all this? hahah
