Leo Burnett Israel Proudly Presents: “var Time”

Everybody who’s watching this year’s FIFA World Cup is talking about just one thing: the “VAR” or for those of you who are not football fans: the “Video Assistant Referee”. The system is the ultimate tool to help on-field referees make the right call on any given shot, using video replay technology – and so doing stop them from making a howler that could cost a side the game.

But it’s also the new universal icon for a TV screen!

So to drive fans to Azrieli’s new ecommerce website, we used the season’s hottest icon to steal the show. During the final, set to take place on Sunday July 15th, where France will attempt to take home the World Cup for the second time in history, every time the referee will signal for the VAR, we’ll give the first 5 viewers who text us a free large screen TV.

So what can we say? Keep your fingers crossed and your mobiles ready.

People, Not Symbols : Leo Burnett Israel

For December 3rd “International Day of Persons with Disabilities”, Access Israel –
the NPO whose mission it is to promote accessibility for people with disabilities in Israel,
is replacing all disabled parking spot signs with the pictures of real people.

You’ve probably seen it happen a zillion times and you’ve maybe even done it yourself once or twice. By that I mean park in a spot for disabled people.

Yeah, we’ve all seen it happen before: a car blitzing into a parking spot reserved for the disabled only for its driver to step out seconds later on two perfectly functioning legs. Sure, if you ask the driver he’ll probably have a whole battery of excuses to go with his blatant misbehavior and disrespect. Anything ranging from: “I’ll only be a second”, “I’m just picking up my wife” to “What’s the rush? You’re sitting in a wheelchair anyway!” and our personal favorite: “I DIDN’T SEE THE SIGN”.

Leo Burnett Tel Aviv Presents: The Peace Blanket

Summer is here, and with it comes the time-old war on the air conditioning:
He’s hot, she’s cold, he’s sweating, she’s freezing.

A battle that rages on all night as the air conditioner is turned on and off.

So Samsung invented the perfect solution so no one needs to fight at night:

 

The Peace Blanket,
half duvet and half pique
