Update: Subway seems to have quickly pulled it's sexy Halloween ad down from YouTube after receiving so much negative publicity.
Via: Laura Stampler @ TIME This new ad reminds you that it's never time to stop dieting
You thought it was over. You thought it was finally safe to sit down at lunch and eat one, just one, burger. Subway wants you to know that YOU THOUGHT WRONG.
Thank your lucky thigh gap the sandwich chain, which recent research asserts is just as unhealthy as McDonald’s, is here to remind you that it’s your moral obligation to stay skinny. Because “bikini season may be over” — that’s an actual quote from the company’s YouTube page — “but there’s more reasons right around the corner to stay fit.”
Namely: To wear skimpy Halloween costumes. Cue a video montage set to the tune of waiting room music where an excessively perky woman models an array of sexy costumes.
Except, Subway clearly isn’t allowed to say sexy. Rather, it’s a “hot devil” (too literal), “sassy teacher” (literally smacking a ruler against her hand), “foxy fullback” (please, let’s get into how women feel about the NFL right now), and our personal favorite, “attractive nurse.”
Luckily for Subway, there’s an emerging sexy (albeit bizarre) Christmas costume market, so that they can keep their “it’s never ok to break a diet” campaign going.
Your skinny coworker lunch buddy will be watching you!
The Flower Council of Holland, working with their creative agency Kingsday, has released ‘The Flower Effect’ a new online film to show the effect flowers have on people. The film is an initiative to promote fresh flowers from Holland in the UK, France, Germany and the Netherlands.
‘The Flower Effect’ is filmed by young Dutch talent Basha de Bruyn and evokes an archaic and romantic style of cinema. The film shows that walking around with a bunch of flowers provokes reactions from strangers, and effects people’s emotions. And ultimately how flowers can spread happiness. Only the two main characters, Sophie en Paul are acting, everyone else in the film are real people, their reactions are genuine.
“Switch on the news and you’ll agree it’s a pretty scary world that we live in today. With this film we wanted to return to a kinder, more naïve place with hints of French romantic cinema. ‘The Flower Effect’ is a fairy tale with a modern twist: all the reactions to the flowers in this film are real.” says Kingsday Creative Director Bram de Rooij,
The Netherlands is the world’s leading supplier of flowers; flowers from Holland make up over 50% of all sales of flowers in the UK, and 60% in Germany.

After scouring the planet for an undiscovered big wave, Ian Walsh and crew make a last minute call to chase a monster swell to a remote part of Western South Africa. Watch Ian as he attempts to make history on the other side of the world with South African surf legend Grant “Twiggy” Baker and next gen charger Frank Solomon.
Brandon Porter of Whitehouse Post cuts “Ghost Wave,” HP’s latest short film starring extreme surfer Ian Walsh via 180LA. Captured by famed surf cinematographer and director Taylor Steele, the short follows Walsh and his crew as they scour the globe in search of an unknown surf break.
The crew eventually lands in a remote fishing village on the Pacific coast of South Africa. Armed with the powerful HP Pavilion x360 for monitoring winds, swells, and tides, Walsh and his team quickly determine it to be the ideal location to scout for waves and immediately get to work chasing the elusive “Ghost Wave.”
Porter’s deft cuts allow us to experience the adventure and thrill as the crew scrambles to catch the swell. “It was great to team up with 180LA again for this project,” says Porter. “Ian is an incredible athlete and Taylor is a fantastic director. Watching Ian drop into waves of that size without hesitation was a mind blowing experience. It was exciting to showcase his skills as a surfer and adventurer, as well as the efficiencies technology brings to finding waves like these.”

Ever hear your Grandma say she’d like to “tap that”? Thankfully, neither have I, but you’ll hear just that from a trio of older female basketball fans in this funny new video from car sharing company Zipcar.
In the video, a trio of old female spectators chat near a basketball court, while evidently checking out the younger players. After they each mention how much they’d like to “tap” what they’re admiring, we soon find out the ladies are actually checking out a Zipcar parked just beyond the court. Mercifully, we don’t have to imagine the older ladies wanting to tap anything more than the car.
The video, which was created by the same team that made the funny and hugely popular “Hello Flo” video, cleverly juxtaposes the vernacular meaning of “I’d tap that” with the literal meaning of how a member uses Zipcar.

To launch GEOX’s newest collection of Amphibiox all-weather footwear, SMFB and Stinkdigital partnered to create ‘You Control The Weather’, an interactive film where the user influences the outcome of the story by taking control of the weather elements. Set in urban surroundings, the film is a love story between two strangers who face extreme weather changes that impact the course of their day. Choosing between sun, rain or snow, the user is prompted by the story narrator to set the weather of each scene in the hope to orchestrate a serendipitous meeting between the two potential lovers. Each scene and weather setting impacts the footwear worn by the individuals as they take their journey across the city. With the integration of a hand crafted 3D camera mapping technique, the user can zoom in on frozen moments to explore the footwear in 360°. As the camera revolves around, the user can quickly navigate through different conditions to see how each shoe’s unique performance is optimised regardless of the weather. All footwear featured in the film can be purchased at any point in the story with a click through to the online store. The responsive site allows users to experience the interactive film across different platforms and is specifically optimised for touch screen devices. The film was directed by Jonathan Entwistle. This launch follows ‘The Rainiest Place on Earth’, an interactive documentary following four volunteers who test the GEOX Amphibiox footwear in Cherrapunjee, a village in northern India with the highest annual rainfall on the planet.

Hartley’s Jelly has launched its first ever TV ad, with a comically surreal new spot for its Hartley’s Jelly Pots brand featuring a group of mischievous jellies trying to escape toys who are working together to put them into their pots.
The ad, created by Karmarama, shows the jellies wobbling around whilst lots of different toys, including a big orange teddy bear, a giraffe, a dinosaur and toy diggers, chase after them.
The jellies that appear in the ad are the real thing and were made to wobble and move through puppeteering techniques. The weird and wonderful jelly voices were provided by both professional beatboxers and comedians. The toys were brought to life via a combination of stop motion and puppetry. Both were combined to produce a visually arresting and entertaining piece of action.
The ad was created by Tom Woodington and Robin Temple at Karmarama. It was directed by Chris Cairns through Partizan.
Sam Walker, Executive Creative Director at Karmarama, said: "For Hartley’s TV debut, we wanted to create something really memorable and entertaining. We had a lot of fun on this shoot and I think it shows in the final film. ”
David Atkinson, Managing Director, Hain Daniels, said: “Not only have Karmarama managed to literally capture our mischievous jellies into pots but they’ve captured them in a funny, unique and entertaining way that will really resonate with our audience. Jelly has never had so much personality.”

Grey London has unveiled its first work for Volvo Car Group: a beautifully-shot, highly sensory film urging the viewer to ‘seek feeling’ – a dramatization of Volvo’s human-centric ethos.
The quietly epic film – a global TV campaign for Volvo’s existing XC60 model – is a shift in tone for the car manufacturer. Moving the brand into a more premium space, it introduces some of the pillars that will underpin its revamped brand positioning: ambition, simplicity, authenticity, Swedishness, and the same level of design quality and craft that goes into its cars. It represents a stylistic prologue to what is to come from the Volvo Kreativ Studio, including a high-profile, multi-faceted campaign for the launch of Volvo’s revolutionary flagship model XC90.
The film itself is about movement; about dynamism and intuitive response – the visceral, emotional experience of the Volvo XC60 brought to life. It begins in the passenger seat of the car –parked on an empty beach, radio quietly humming in the background, door left open, and a pair of shoes discarded in the footwell. Moving toward the water, the radio fades into the distance – drowned out by the sound of the ocean as we reach the shoreline…
“to feel to really feel is a rare thing these days”
…then out into the surf. Through the water, through the first tentative laps to the thundering crash of enormous waves, out into the darkness…until the water is still. Serene. A lone figure sits on her surfboard, her windswept silhouette visible only through the moonlight. Staring out toward the horizon, she’s waiting; a defiant look in her eyes.
And then it comes. The swell rises. A wave approaches, powerful and unstoppable. Adrenaline racing, we rise up. She rises up. Her arm takes one graceful, powerful swipe through the water as the wave is about to break…and then we cut. Against the black, we hear the earth-shaking thunder of the wave collapsing. The film ends with the line ‘Seek Feeling. The responsive XC60’.
Hollie Newton, Global Creative Director at Grey London, says: “The last thing the world needs is another overly-retouched car, hooning down a mountain road to a soft rock soundtrack. There's a defiant, slightly renegade Swedish spirit to Volvo that simply doesn't fit with the bland world of car advertising. And thank god for that. We have an enormous suite of work coming up for Volvo which challenges the conventions of the sector. This is the first. A quietly epic piece of film that, hopefully, makes you feel something.”
Marcus Söderlund, Director (and Swede), adds: “I am working my way through the four classical elements with Grey: last time it was a fire film, now water. The perspective in this film is pretty special; it´s not a first person perspective. The whole way through it’s the viewer’s film and view. Working in the element of water is fantastic – there is so much you just can´t predict or control. If you embrace that, you can get imagery you can’t even dream of.”
As very specific weather, moonlight and tidal conditions were required for the highly technical shoot, the time of year made shooting in Sweden impossible. Instead, the film was shot in Durban, South Africa. After looking at dozens of potential locations, Durban emerged as the only that could provide the essential quartet of good waves, high-quality levels of moonlight, shark nets and – most importantly – an area which closely resembled Swedish environments. Just as vital as the location was the casting – with 46 year old Cape Town resident and experienced surfer Lisette Forsyth eventually chosen. Not only was she at ease in the ocean and a passionate surfer, she had a beautifully graceful and serene look in the water.
The campaign is Global Creative Director Hollie Newton’s first for Grey since joining from Wieden + Kennedy last year, where she created Lurpak’s multi-award-winning Good Proper Food. It was directed by Gothenburg-born Marcus Söderlund through Academy. Print photography was from Gian Paul Lozza, best-known for capturing his subject using only ambient light. Allan “Willy” Wilson – famed for his surf films – was underwater DoP, while André Chémétoff – known for his beautiful, technical films such as Our Day Will Come by Romain Gavras and Jaron Albertin’s Sony Volcano – was DoP.

This year marks the 30th birthday of Toys”R”Us Canada. As the company matures into adulthood, what better time for the brand to pledge a promise to its supporters to remain forever young.
Toronto-based creative agency Open created a film dedicated to the young at heart, be they young, old, or somewhere in between. The message is a playful reminder to never grow up and a shout-out to those who stay playful by doing the things they love. A corresponding Facebook app, called “Never Grow Up”, was created to allow users to take the Toys“R”Us oath online. After submitting their own oaths of what they will always do to stay young, a map then shows their location, along with others, to create a cross Canada portrait of the young at heart.
“The film demonstrates the things that those who are young at heart promise to always do, from playing with bugs, to keeping a sense of wonder, to rolling down hills or firing off bottle rockets. The film has a sweet side, but focuses on the lightheartedness that is inherently Toys”R”Us.” Says Martin Beauvais, Partner, Creative, Open.
“The film is also a nod to the brands’ roots and the nostalgia associated with the jingle we all know,” adds Christian Mathieu, Partner, Strategy, Open.

BBDO put together an all-star team to produce “We Wish” and “Deep Breath,” the broadcast spots that launched the rebrand of CVS Caremark as CVS Health. Led by BBDO producer Regina lannuzzi, the team included RSA director Jake Scott, Crew Cuts editors Sherri Margulies and Danielle Sclafani, and Nice Shoes colorist Chris Ryan.
Nice Shoes’ Ryan collaborated with the BBDO team and the editors from Crew Cuts to bring out the natural beauty of the footage, which features real people in real environments rather than actors on constructed sets. The spots highlight the brand’s desire to aid customers in living healthier lives, both by removing cigarettes from store shelves and by providing smokers with comprehensive plans to quit smoking.
“The BBDO team and their clients really liked how Jake and his DP shot everything,” said Ryan, who was impressed by the footage and the agency’s approach for the color grading session. “I worked with them to create a look that let the cinematography shine through. Rather than trying to fix anything, we were all struggling to make a choice between three or four directions that all looked beautiful. It’s a great problem to have.”
The spots made their debut on a giant screen in Bryant Park in New York City as part of a massive installation executed by BBDO that also included a 50-foot cigarette that was gradually extinguished.
“This campaign is on par with some of the best advertising being produced right now,” said Ryan. “It was crafted by an expert team, which really let me focus on letting the stunning imagery that was shot come out naturally.”

Supply & Demand director Gerard de Thame has wrapped the director’s cut of “Forever Faster” for Puma, work that continues to separate the brand from the sporting pack with an open invitation to join its rebellious cause.
“One of the main things Puma wanted to get across was a different message than the likes of Nike and Adidas whose athletes often tow the line and take themselves far too seriously,” say de Thame on Puma’s new branding platform. “Puma’s whole approach is: ‘we are different, we are individuals’ in work that is told in a very unique way.”
“Forever Faster” sidesteps convention by striking a rebellious pose using the world’s fastest man – all to prove that when you set the pace, you’re the one to chase. Rather than mimic serious-minded pleas we are introduced to the wise cracking persona of Usain Bolt, who instead revels in impatience, hostility and a bevy of impossible odds.
De Thame’s director’s cut sees a more rhythmic spot than the agency’s earlier version, focusing on the world’s fastest man as he speaks of Puma’s primal call. “It was a great collaboration between Gerard and the agency,” explains Tim Case, Supply & Demand’s Founder / Managing Partner. “Matt Anderson and Jeff Benjamin were fantastic, it was fun to be around and watch them develop this with Gerard. Usain Bolt turned out to be a terrific guy.”
The campaign was a competitive pitch, the commercial forming after different machinations of the original idea. “At one point we almost went with Usain hopping fences and jumping into people’s swimming pools,” de Thame reveals. “That was quite interesting, but the idea was eventually dropped.”
A desire to reference branding from the 70s was also examined before production, a move recalling one of Puma’s greatest marketing moments when Pele wore their black and gold Puma King boots, specially-crafted for Pele during the 1970 World Cup. In a beautiful piece of marketing excellence, Pele effortlessly pushed the brand by asking the referee to stop a game moments before the final whistle – just to tie up his Puma laces as everyone watched enthralled.
Shooting on location in Italy with Oscar-winning cinematographer Mauro Fiore (Avatar, Training Day, Smokin’ Aces), de Thame shot most of the football footage on green screen. Additional material was also garnered with supporters at real football games:
“Mauro’s work is phenomenal and we had complicated lighting and green screen work to achieve,” explains de Thame. “As always we were limited to the time the athletes gave us, but that served to keep us on our toes. We managed to capture everything we needed while Usain was a pleasure to work with. He has the perfect persona to encourage the use of rebellion and defy social norms, is such an interesting guy, and definitely breaking barriers like Puma.”
Asked why he finds himself in the US more often than Europe of late, de Thame responds that creativity and budgets are simply more attractive here. “The American market is more vibrant,” he explains. “There’s more going on, the reverse of how it used to be with better creative in England and money to go with it.”
De Thame wraps up by mentioning that post on the spot was also productive, giving props to both The Mill and Final Cut on the look of the final product – The Mill creating full CG stadiums with crowd differentiation between various football players on the pitch, while matte painters also created various custom landscapes.
“The agency really let us get on with it,” says de Thame on wrapping the work. “I supervised both the edit and the post effects. Joe Guest over at Final Cut did an amazing job, flying in from London to give us the right flow.”
