FCB RG2 launched a new campaign for the Alzheimer’s Foundation of Venezuela entitled “The Unforgettable Account.”
Despite the fact that Alzheimer’s is a growing problem worldwide, donations to Alzheimer’s non-profits in Venezuela have actually declined. One reason for this is that people forget how to donate. So, FCB RG2 teamed up with Banplus, a bank in Venezuela, to make it easy to remember. People can donate to an account at the bank with the easy to remember account number: 0000-0000-00-0000000000. All donations to the account go to “toward programs that provide support and training to caregivers of patients with Alzheimer’s and promising research initiatives.”
In the above video, an old woman suffering from Alzheimer’s brings a human face to the effort. “I can’t remember anything of what I’m saying right now,” she admits, “but what really matters is that you will remember it.” It’s an affecting way to get viewers attention and ensure that when she shares the easy to remember account information, people will listen. And so far it is making a difference; since the effort launched, donations to the Alzheimer’s Foundation of Venezuela have increased by 226 percent.

Commonwealth//McCann, which recently won creative duties for Chevrolet’s Silverado line from Leo Burnett Detroit, just released a new campaign for the larger Chevy brand.
The work looks to turn the staid car ad model on its head by utilizing a common ad trope: gathering a bunch of non-actors and gauging their reactions to the product in question. Its goal is to push the “smart car” concept while selling the new Chevy Malibu.
The first spot in the campaign gets to the heart of the matter with a little completely inappropriate “TMI”:
The series continues with different subjects/victims in “Eyes on the Road,” which proves that even zombies, puppies, and burned-out rock stars can’t detract from the brilliance of Chevy:
That’s a pretty hard sell. The next ad goes even further in comparing one vehicle to another and presenting subject with what we’ll call “a Sophie’s choice”:
The first ad launched yesterday, and Chevy recruited various notable personalities to promote it under the #BestDayEver hashtag by “perform[ing] good surprises” for Americans.
Here, for example, is the redneck guy from The Walking Dead doing…something good.

More ads are visible on the Chevy YouTube page with additional broadcast work to air in the coming weeks. Given the client’s recent vote of confidence in its agency, we expect to see more, different work for Chevrolet throughout the year.
The campaign has five separate credits lists, so we’ll just post the first.

Adam Savage, animateur de l’émission MythBusters sur la chaine Discovery Channel, est un grand fan du cinéma de Stanley Kubrick. Il a voulu rendre hommage au film « The Shining » et au labyrinthe de l’Hôtel Overlook en concevant lui-même une maquette, pendant un mois de travail intensif.
We’ve come a long way, baby.
After 85 episodes, we’re down to just seven. The end is nigh.
I’m not sure anyone is particularly sad about this, even the most devoted fans. It’s best to go out strong and, hell, even creator Matthew Weiner has said “the storytelling machinery has worn out.”
Iodine deficiency, and a list of associated medical issues, is an unfortunate reality for millions of women in rural India. Knowing this, Grey For Good, Grey Group Singapore’s newly formed philanthropic arm, teamed up with NGO and Neelvasant Medical Foundation and Research Center to address the problem, with further support from Talwar Bindi.
Since most women in India wear a bindi, they decided to make one that doubles as an iodine patch, providing provides its wearer with a daily dose of iodine. The creation was dubbed the “Life Saving Dot.” Iodine patches were handed out in medical camps across rural India, in villages including Badli (near New Delhi), Niphad-rural (Maharastra), Peth-tribal (Maharastra), and Kopergaon/Sinner (Maharastra), helping women who can’t afford iodine supplements receive the much-needed nutrient.
“Iodine deficiency disorder is a major nutritional problem and the Life Saving Dot is a simple, yet innovative preventive measure to a widespread problem in rural India,” said Ali Shabaz, chief creative officer of Grey Group Singapore. “This program can easily be extended to reach a larger population of women in India who need this vital mineral for a healthier life.”

Os emojis, esses pequenos e divertidos ícones que inserimos em nossas mensagens diariamente, são basicamente uma língua universal, que não precisa de tradução. Seu apelo visual é tão viciante que, muitas vezes, o que queremos expressar não se consegue traduzir em palavras, apenas em emojis.

MillerCoors has been quite busy this week.
Just days after launching a beat-driven, millennial-focused spot from Commonground, the beer giant has shifted gears to the opposite end of the spectrum with ads that delve into its backstory.
Created by WPP-owned, Chicago-based Cavalry, which grabbed the baton from FCB on ad duties for MillerCoors two years ago, the Noam Murro-directed ads shed light on the history of the Coors brand, weaving a narrative that includes its founder and those who lit the spark.
Yes, the slow-burning voiceover of Sam Elliott — who’s been guiding us through the Coors journey since 2007 — makes its stoic return (as does the legend of the brand’s Banquet beer line).
This latest effort will also include an Instagram campaign as well as OOH work in the coming months.
