Before algorithms for binge-watching, there was a Blockbuster, the one-stop rental shop lined with VHS tapes and DVDs where customers walked (not logged) in for that night’s entertainment. The friendly sales clerks decked out in blue-and-yellow polos made picking a movie easier, unlike the laborious chore that it is now. Then, almost all 9,094 locations…

When South By Southwest was canceled in March, it got my attention and the attention of the world. For one thing, it had never happened before. Now it’s three months later and the U.S. leads the world in COVID-19 cases and deaths (by a wide margin). Plenty of pundits point to inept leadership in D.C. […]

Our message as an organization on a day like this is that of hope, strength, and encouragement. These are enduring virtues etched on our Democracy by patriots like Moshood Abiola, Ken Saro-Wiwa, and Abdul Salam Abubakar. Things didn’t get this bad overnight; so, we should also embrace the fact that “all good things take time”; and that includes our Democracy.
Hugging. It’s an act we always considered normal. Until it wasn’t anymore. For weeks, we couldn’t hug some of our loved ones. Until now. With life in Belgium slowly opening up, the Belgian government announced we can allow up to 10 people in our bubble. And… it’s ok to hug them.
An emotional moment for a lot of people that inspired Happiness to capture these moments in photographic series. The images were made by Belgian photographer and Canon ambassador Lieve Blancquaert. She captured – in a safe environment – the first hugs between loved ones of all kind. Lovers. Friends. Grandmothers and grandchildren. Brothers and sisters. ?
As Swedes were starting to get tired of working from home due to covid-19 restrictions we saw that many office workers started to share their feelings about missing the real office and all that comes with it.
So Swedish telco Telia, that recently released a subscription with free surf in Office365 for home office workers, put up a real home office kit for auction.
The kit was complete with an irritating printer, a half full fruit basket, left over coffee bread from the morning staff meeting, a dried-out Whiteboard pencil, a permanent marker that looks like a Whiteboard pencil, an empty stapler and your messy colleague’s old coffee mugs. Basically, all the details to help your home office feel more like the real office.
The home office kit was auctioned on an online local auction site and it had over 13,000 hits. All the money collected from the auction was then donated by Telia to the Swedish NGO Friends.
DIESEL and Publicis Italy are proud to announce the launch of its new film, titled “Francesca.” Born as male, we follow her transitioning through life, in feats both big and small, as she achieves her dreams. This new campaign realized with the advice of Diversity, an Italian association committed to promoting social inclusion, shows the brand fully supports the freedom to do what makes one happy, and the freedom to 100% live one’s individuality.
The work tackles a real-life tension between identity of gender and identity of faith and an increasingly inclusive (and at times, controversial) approach from Pope Francis. The Christian church still grapples with transgender issues; a research study published by WSJ last year revealed that ‘Catholics remain divided. Progressives say the church has to do more to welcome transgender Catholics, while conservatives stress traditional teaching on sexuality and bioethics’ with the Pope ‘encouraging both goals’. Just last month, the Pope donated money to a transgender parish who were financially struggling due to Coronavirus.
In the crush of news about the coronavirus, recession and racial unrest, comparatively few in the business realm (or anywhere else) are likely to take notice of something as pedestrian as a company’s annual report. Why would they? Securities laws make annual reports mandatory for publicly traded corporations, which is one reason why–unless you’re an…
For months, the coronavirus pandemic sent shockwaves of fear and uncertainty throughout the consumer landscape. Out of necessity, many people adopted new buying habits and preferences during the lockdown; they gravitated toward ecommerce, curbside pickup and contactless delivery options. Now that the economy is reopening, one question looms large: How many of these temporary buying…
On last week’s episode of Yeah, That’s Probably an Ad, we shared the mic with two Black creatives. This week in conjunction with our sister podcast D&I TBD, we hand the reins to BBDO copywriter Bennett D. Bennett and Periscope strategist Nathan Young as our special co-hosts. They are behind the urgent call to action…
It’s clear that agencies struggle with finding and recruiting talent of color despite the best of intentions. Longstanding programs like MAIP offer a continuous pipeline of junior talent, yet often, the excuse is that people are hard to find. While that notion is problematic for several reasons, a group of Portland, Ore. creatives may have…

Even before Stanley Tucci made it “internet famous” this spring during lockdown, the Negroni was a popular cocktail at Dante in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village.

Suddenly, an ad for a blender paired with a recipe…
TV ad sales executives have been publicly quiet since the Association of National Advertisers called for a shift to a calendar year upfront last week as part of what the group deemed “transformative” changes to the media ecosystem.
