The campaign revolves around a young man named Mads and his battle against the peer pressure from his friends. However to show the absurdity of how Danish youth often pressure each other into consuming more alcohol and tackle how normalised this kind of behaviour has become, we have replaced all alcohol in the scenes with red sausages. We follow Mads through a range of different drinking (sausage) situations and the continuous pressure from his friends to consume more and more sausages. When Mads has finally had it with the pressure and takes a stand against his friends, he fails miserably as the peer pressure overwhelms him. The call to action in the end says: “Are you pushing the sausage?". Urging young people to stop peer pressuring each other into drinking more alcohol.

In a daring and bold move, Brazilian photographer, Marcos Alberti, acclaimed for last year’s “3 Glasses” project on drinking alcohol in moderation, set out on a new mission to break down the barriers of female sexual well-being in his latest quest, the "O Project." Together with sexual well-being brand, Smile Makers, Alberti presented female sexuality like it's never been done. Alberti captured the facial expressions of more than 20 women before, during, and after their sexual journey, while using personal massagers. The four photos unveil the slow or, in some cases, rapid progression of each woman’s facial changes as she reaches and recovers from orgasm. The headshots are fun and sexy, but tasteful, keeping everything below the waist hidden from view – ­­­­­­­­­­even from the photographer.

Tryg in Danish means “safe”, but many Tryg Insurance customers don’t know that by choosing Tryg, they’re actually supporting hundreds of projects around Denmark that help make people feel safe. One of these projects is giving teddy bears to hospitalized children. So to tell people of this fact, we decided to give hospitalized Tryg costumers a little, fluffy surprise.

For 2018, the agency delivers its best wishes with Jacques Séguéla. The young agency Gloryparis shares the 83 years old pope of advertising’s recommendations. The video shows Jacques Séguéla turned into a puppet, speaking and moving as if controlled by a ventriloquist. If this greeting card is funny, it is also designed to be a humility lesson and a reminder that we shouldn’t take things as granted and that we relentlessly need to start over. Jacques Séguéla shows us that creativity is the key and that he remained a big kid. Happy new year to you all, and glory to Jacques.

You can’t avoid it. Every news cycle confirms that the world is heading in a disturbing new direction. One where authoritarianism, xenophobia, bigotry and corruption threatens to be the new normal. While our leaders spew their hateful vitriol all over social media, we realise the importance of telling the story of different kind of leader. One that was condemned to a prison cell for 27 years at the hands of a brutal Apartheid regime, and emerged only to choose love and forgiveness over hate. One that led his country to a peaceful democracy where every race, religion and creed would be free and equal. His name is Nelson Mandela and the world needs him now more than ever. But as Barack Obama remarked in his recent speech marking the former president’s centenary memorial, “We will never see the likes of Nelson Mandela again. But let me say to the young people of Africa and the young people around the world -- you, too, can make his life’s work your own.” In this context Ogilvy Johannesburg, in partnership with Philips and The Nelson Mandela Foundation conceived a way to turn Mandela’s legacy into a tangible action that is accessible to all. #ShavetoRemember, a call to action for all people from South Africa and beyond, to find the Mandela within them in them by getting his iconic haircut. It’s more than a hairstyle. Getting Madiba line shaved into your hair is a visceral commitment to bring those values to a divided world – no matter who you are, where you come from or how small your sphere of influence is. What has turned into a social movement was launched with a film. The film opens with a recording of Mandela's inaugural speech. This sets the scene as his words are delivered by a diverse cast of South Africans. Every word in the ad is Mandela’s own. The characters, all with the famous Mandela line shaved into their hair, use Mandela’s wisdom as inspiration and guidance in their everyday lives and struggles, The underlying narrative being that everyone has a Mandela in them.

To launch Arsenal’s 2021/22 third jersey, Iris created ‘Where we belong’, a 3.5 minute mockumentary. Instead of focusing on well-known players, the film spotlights a 60-year-old character to launch the latest shirt - Arsenal super fan, Len. The mockumentary turns Len into a true club legend, with players past and present telling stories about him and how his belief has influenced some of the club’s most historic moments. Directed by a diehard life-time Arsenal fan, the film is littered with insights and easter eggs that only ‘true fans’, like Len, will pick up on. The campaign taps into the fact that, for fans, there is nothing more powerful than belief. Faithful Arsenal fans have always had an elite mentality and believed that no matter what happens on the pitch, they are one of the best clubs in the world and they will get back to where they belong - Len is the embodiment of that belief.

Communications technology is supposed to bring us together. Instead, it has been tearing us apart. Especially mobile technology. So in an act of meaningful vandalism, we went out into the streets of Lisbon in the middle of the night and pasted up hundreds of posters bearing messages that directly question this great addiction of the 21st-Century.
