Red Cross: Christmas Supporter

The Red Cross creates Christmas tree stands that supports families in need. 11.000 families in Denmark can’t afford Christmas. At first that may not seem like a lot. But Denmark is a small country, and over the last six years, that number has increased by 525%. To save their Christmas, the Danish Red Cross has created a unique Christmas tree stand in the shape and color of their own logo. A stunningly simple, visual idea in itself. But it gets even better. Whenever people buy a Christmas tree, they can choose to pay a little extra for the Red Cross stand. The profit goes entirely to families in need, so that everyone can have the Christmas they wish for. A small but big idea that makes a real difference for those who need it the most.

McDonald's: Gift Wrap Redeemed for a Cheeseburger

Trying to find the perfect Christmas gifts can turn out to be rather stressful. So, in an attempt to ease the Christmas anxiety, McDonald’s in Sweden have launched a special gift wrap that almost guarantees any gift to be well-received at Christmas Eve. A McDonald’s franchise owner in Sweden is now offering the guests a special Christmas gift wrap which can be returned and exchanged for a free Cheeseburger after Christmas. The gift wrap is also designed to look like the classic Cheeseburger wrapping (obviously), which will make for an unexpected sight under the Christmas tree. The Cheeseburger Gift Wrap is only available in selected McDonald’s restaurants in Sweden.

Hertz: Santa is Coming

Bi-coastal production company Honor Society directing duo Cary & Jon solve holiday travel woes for the season’s man of the hour–Santa–in a new spot for Hertz, out of Clean Up On Aisle 7, New York, NY. The spot proves that like celebs, Santa is “just like us,” lamenting over the predictably unpleasant experience of traveling during the holiday season. After enduring a cramped flight with several “naughty” children, he braces himself for an equally irritating experience at the rental car desk. To his surprise, he is crankier than usual as he approaches the rental car desk. That mood is quickly turned as his agent gives him a Kris Kringle-worthy upgrade.

Santa is coming. Hertz. We’re here to get you there.

BMW: Christmas Safety Card

Every year, BMW wishes its customers a new year of exhilarating and safe driving pleasure. But this time it is not just a wish. With a special Christmas card, BMW and Air want to ensure there is extra safety on the road.

AIR developed the ‘Christmas Safety Card’ in collaboration with electronics company Selectron. It’s a Christmas card that shouldn’t be put on the mantelpiece but hung in the car. The micro sensor in the card measures driving behaviour and reacts with a spoken message (Ho! Ho! Hooo! just like Santa) when the car is driven unsafely. The sensor measures the G-forces and reacts when the car accelerates too much, or when it brakes or drives too quickly through bends.

This technical prowess took quite some time to organise, and required much testing and reprogramming. The limited edition Christmas card was sent to members of the BMW M LEAGUE who recently bought their car and participated in the BMW Track Days. Drivers who we know want to get the most out of their cars in a responsible manner. We hope our ‘Christmas Safety Card’ will help them drive safely through the winter and beyond.

BMW: BMW at DTM-2017

In late June the Moscow Raceway saw the Russian phase of the legendary DTM race for the 5th time. The Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters series was created by German automobile manufacturers in 2000, and since then such market giants as BMW, Audi and Mercedes measure each other’s innovative capacities in their own racing tour. Today DTM is the most popular touring car competition in Europe. The Moscow event saw over 30,000 visitors.

During the latest competition DEPARTÁMENT was responsible for BMW presence. To do this, the agency’s team built a breathtakingly creative pavilion. We put the new BMW M4 Coupe Competition on a huge construction roof consisting of multiple lines. We bound it in two planes and made a clear impression that the car was driving along a track, appearing right out of a curve.

In the pavilion painted in BMW’s series M three signature colors we created a lot of interactive hype. No wonder our pavilion became the most visited site out of three – the guests got a figurative shot of adrenaline, emotions and entertainment at the show.

BMW: Dasher Cams

Mysterious footage of unidentified flying objects has been shared by BMW owners across the world, with some claiming it might actually be Santa Claus himself. The dashcam footage – or ‘#DasherCam footage’ as it’s been dubbed on social media – was taken unwittingly by drivers of The Ultimate Driving Machine, and appears to catch Father Christmas and his faithful reindeer in the act; making their way around the world delivering presents at light-speed. Sightings have been pouring in from as far as Australia and India, as well as from across the UK. One particularly close encounter saw one BMW owner being woken up by presents falling from the sky. Another, slightly unluckier BMW owner, was left frustrated by piles of less generous ‘presents’ left by a midnight gathering of reindeer on his front lawn. “It wasn’t until I looked through my dashcam footage that I realised Santa and his reindeer had been prancing all over my lawn. They were captured on film, as clear as day!” BMW has been urging all drivers to now check their dashcam footage from Christmas Eve and the early hours of Christmas Day, and to share any sightings of their own. Created by FCB Inferno, the work will be live on Facebook, Instagram Stories, Twitter on 24th and 25th December.
