Demi: Beauty is in the mind of the beholder

Print
Demi

Problems with self-esteem and self-acceptance are beginning to be more common in younger people than ever before. Social media and its many beauty filters distort the self-image of children and young people. Media has the power to influence the current standards of beauty – either by adding the pressure to look a certain way or alleviating it. A Finnish young people’s media Demi launches a campaign in the hopes of opening a conversation regarding the pressure of the many beauty standards teenagers have to face.

For the first time during the Uruguayan summer, vacationers can enjoy their favorite McDonald’s meal on the beaches of Punta del Este, with the help of PedidosYa. Historically, many tourists from the region spend their holidays in Punta del Este. Considering this summer is facing a lower tourist revenue, due to an economic regional downturn, the brands decided to expand their coverage area in an unprecedented way, creating the McDelivery Point to generate new consumption occasions on six beaches. This innovative service for the region aims to bring McDonald’s food closer to all Punta del Este vacationers exclusively through PedidosYa platform, satisfying their hunger without having to move from the beach when they need the most. This is a new experience for McDonald’s customer’s in the region, marking the first time the brand attends this beach for the summer.

Covenant House: Myth Busting Sex Trafficking

Print
Covenant House

On TV, sex trafficking looks like this. In reality, it looks more like the girl next door.
In real life pimps don’t tie girls down with ropes. That’s what emotional dependence and lies are for.
You might imagine sex trafficking is all about chains. It is, but the links are made of fear, drugs, and money.
Sex trafficking in the US isn’t what you think. The real shackles used by pimps are physiological, which means they are far harder to break. Help us fight it. Text: “FIGHT” to 52000 to donate $10.

Nissan: Personal Space

Print

Personal space is no laughing matter in Finland. When Finns wait for their buses, the crowd typically disperses as much as humanly possible.

One would have to see it to believe it. And many have, as evidenced by the number of pictures circulating online. Shot by amused passers-by, they feature a typical morning or evening commute scene, with Finns standing at regular intervals avoiding all interaction.

These Internet memes have now inspired advertising. Nissan’s Nordic Europe division uses the bus stop scenes to highlight their Automatic Distance Control that regulates safety distance on the road.

“The people standing at the bus stop are a perfect match to represent Nissan’s safety feature. Both control distance automatically,” says Creative Director Erno Reinikainen at TBWAHelsinki, Nissan’s advertising agency in Finland. “This everyday situation is something all Finns can relate to,” he continues.

We Are Social

Predicting the future has never been easy for brands, so to find out what 2020 has in store for some of the world’s most famous companies We Are Social in France has consulted the stars.

We Are Social has devised a tongue-in-cheek, highly personalised horoscope for brands such as McDonald’s, Zara, Dyson, Nintendo and Dior, combining an in-depth analysis of the stars, psychological insights and plenty of sarcasm.

In its astrological readings, McDonald’s, an Aries, is faced with some home truths: “You love attention, you crave for attention, and you’ll never have enough of it. But the world is changing, and if you don’t stop and take a look once in a while, you could miss it. Otherwise, you’ll just become another boomer (I mean, look at your veggie food supply).”

McDonald's: Signs

McDonald’s

Ever noticed that when hungry, you tend to project your cravings onto everything? Hungriness can indeed make one extra conscious of food-related signs. Based on this insight, we created an outdoor McDonald’s campaign, where the infamous Golden Arches are formed each time into signs in different surroundings, paving our way to a delicious Big Mac (or two).

If you see the signs, you are probably hungry.

Japan is the land of traditions. One of these is to tell small, lovingly drawn stories on fans. This tradition is used by Japanese carbuilder NISSAN to highlight the innovation of the new high-beam-assistant. To put the technology that provides a better view in the dark and lets the driver recognize dangers earlier, in an unusual light.

Polestar: Goodbye combustion engine

Print
Polestar

Polestar is the new electric performance car brand owned by Volvo Cars and Geely, determined to accelerate the change to electric mobility. In the spring of 2020, Polestar will launch its latest car: Polestar 2. As part of the international launch campaign “Goodbye Normal”, Polestar and international creative agency ACNE created the print “Goodbye combustion engine”. The long copy ad reads like an obituary for the internal combustion engine as if it were a person. The ad is a friendly dig towards the combustion engine that has been affecting the environment and polluting the air for over 160 years. With the campaign, Acne and Polestar wanted to move away from stereotypical car advertising. Instead, they’re doing away with conventions they see as harmful and outdated to help create a better industry, one free from stereotypes, combustion engines, regular car keys (Polestar 2 doesn’t have one), and so on.
