BBR Saatchi & Saatchi and American Express present: HOME COUTURE

American Express x TimeOut Israel let its card members confine from home with style.

American Express card members are known for their impeccable taste and lust of life, culture, food and exclusive experiences. However, as we all know, the coronavirus outbreak has made enjoying even the most mundane of pleasures like eating out at a stylish restaurant impossible. So what do you do when your natural playground has been pulled out from under your feet? How do you provide American Express card members with that trademark stand-out experience?

Working with Time Out Israel, we created a dedicated content hub that lets the brand’s premium card members shop for the very best and very finest online has to offer. From special food packages and designer wines to online home styling services and specially created chef dinners – we curated “all deliverable to your doorstep” packages adapted for consumption from the comfort of your very own home.

No Lockdown For Education : MonkeyWrench, Kolkata

The crisis of Covid-19 has brought the world to a standstill. The hustle and bustle of our lives and the clockwork of the giant corporate world and various consumer industries have come to a grave pause. While we are safe indoors, our bankers, scientists, policemen and scientists have been fighting at the frontline to keep us safe. And to prepare the future for an even stronger fight, our teachers have been quietly sitting indoors and teaching online every single day to mould the future set of bankers, scientists, policemen and change-makers. From the blackboard to the laptop, from picking up chalk to picking up video classes – the world may be under a lockdown but the mind is free – and our teachers globally have been imparting knowledge with courage through every technological way possible. We salute our frontline warriors in the education sector for continuing to fuel hope and shape a stronger world.

Synopsis: There are women all around the world who spend their days outdoors – often traversing over uneven and steep terrain – who we don’t conventionally consider explorers. To the next generation of explorers, what could be more inspiring? We identify women in developing countries who champion causes such as education, entrepreneurship and empowerment. Collaborating with the popular fitness tracking app Strava, their daily walking route is mapped and mirrored all over the world. When women run, hike or cycle along these special routes, we turn their miles into contributions. Bringing sisterhood to the outdoors, we dare to lead the world forward through exploration.

We Didn’t Start The Fire : Miami Ad School, SFO

Title: We Didn’t Start The Fire
School: Miami Ad School San Francisco
Art Director: Willow Ennen
Copywriter: Hatem El Akad and Josh Peterson

Description:

Sustainability can be an ugly, overused word. It can mean greenwashing for the sake of it and compromising on taste. Which Adnams doesn’t.

Sustainability needs to taste good.

Adnams has a deep heritage and ongoing commitment to sustainability. It constantly innovates to create products that give back to the earth it borrows from.

But Adnams is only one company pursuing sustainability.

What happens when other companies aren’t sustainable?

Rising tides, lakes of fire…

In other words? The apocalypse.

BBR Saatchi & Saatchi and Mazda present: Your Getaway Car

Mazda x Spotify set you up for some badly needed peace and quiet and uplifting tunes

We’re all feeling the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. Whether it’s worrying about our health, juggling between looking after the kids and working from home or simply the stress that comes from being cooped up all together 24/7 with no privacy – this crisis is definitely taking its toll. So Mazda thought it would give you a little ‘Me Time’.

For many the car is the one place they can get a little respite and privacy. In regular times it’s their private sanctum –and now even more so. That’s why teaming up with Spotify, Mazda decided to create and curate a few playlists (only 10 minutes long each – so you won’t get into trouble with the misses) that are bound to lift your spirits. Whether you’re looking for an energizing ‘Pick Me Up’, ‘Zen Me Out’, or ‘G-d Give Me Strength’ effect – Mazda has the perfect playlist lined up for you.

So Apple Watch decided to innovate in order to alleviate the social and personal stress of panic attack patients.

BBR Saatchi & Saatchi presents: “Embracing The Haters”

‘Torteet’, ‘Teami’, ‘Egozi’ and ‘Twist’ are chocolate bars from a different era. Had you come to Israel in the 1970’s you’d have found only one chocolate brand on supermarket shelves: Elite’s bars. They were the brand everyone grew up on and loved.
But with the years, the Israeli market opened up and international brands made their way into the country and its supermarkets. Israelis, many of whom had never been abroad, were enchanted by the opportunity to get a taste of being abroad even if it was only by intermediary of a chocolate bar made overseas. So they slowly began ditching Elite’s chocolate bars in favor of the international power brands – a gradual but ultimately mass exodus which ended with the shaming today of the few consumers who remained faithful to Elite bars. Consumers the public has branded as ‘weirdos’ and ‘misfits’.

Publicis Israel and BBR Saatchi & Saatchi present: “Don’t Just Stand By”

Here is a disturbing fact: A survey carried out among Israeli children and teenagers found that most Israeli children would rather experience physical violence than experience bullying.
Today’s reality however is harsh. If before the advent of social media bullying ended at the gates to school; today with much of kids’ social lives managed via platforms like Whatsapp, Instagram and Facebook, bullying goes way beyond the schoolground – following children throughout their day, whether they are at home or at after school sports activities. And when you’re being picked on, when you’re excluded from the class Whatsapp group, shamed on Facebook by bullies hiding behind their keyboard, the scars stay with you well after you graduate.
Bullying is cruel and heartless and can lead to harsh consequences and in some cases even suicide. But rather than appeal to the bullies or reach out to the victims – we decided to opt for an audience that carries a lot more sway – the silent majority who sit on the sidelines. The kids who while they do not take part in the boycott, also do nothing to stop it.
The campaign initiated by the office of the President of the State of Israel, Mr. Reuven Rivlin, under the hashtag #Don’t_Just_Stand_By, was created in collaboration with stars and influencers children love and aims at empowering the silent majority by directing them to a website with tips to help them fight bullying and not stand idly by.

The campaign, which launched just a few days ago, has so far shown amazing results:

Talk About Menstruation In The Open : Spec Work from Miami Ad School Students

Kindly note that this is STUDENT SPEC WORK and has not been commissioned by the brand.
The credits are as below:

Advertised brand: McKinsey Design + The Case For Her
Advert title: TMI – Talk about Menstruation In the open
Advert Type: Integrated
Advertising School: Miami Ad School, Mumbai, India
Art Director: Saloni Doshi
Copywriters: Palak Kapadia, Yashashree Samant, Nagma Dhingra

Synopsis: Talking about menstruation is largely a social and cultural taboo. McKinsey in partnership with The Case For Her wants to tackle issues and social stigmas around menstruation. Women themselves have internalised the stigma related to menstruation to the extent that they refrain from talking about it openly and certainly not in detail. Normally women are extremely particular about nuances in colours. However, when it comes to periods, women refrain from talking about the different shades of menstrual blood. Research shows that a change in colour can be an early indicator of underlying health issues – a conversation we shouldn’t be shying away from. In order to execute the same we use various touch points that women encounter and talk about anyway, to normalise the “uncomfortable” period conversation.
