Most viewers either appreciate Aivazovsky’s art or just don’t relate to it at all, perceiving his paintings just as ‘some sea pictures’. To overcome this emotional gap, BBDO Russia Group decided to shift the emphasis from the global ocean to the painter himself. The film recounts one of the most amazing moments in life of Aivazovsky, when he was working on the “Explosion of the Turkish Ship” painting just several hours before he passed away – almost to the very end.

After viewing hundreds of advertising works from all over the world it appeares that the favorite musical instrument of all advertisers is a piano. As soon as we heard the sad piano - we knew it would be a sad PSA. Moreover, all these sad melodies are similar to each other, because advertisers use the same musical drains. We decided to make fun of the situation and to make an advertisement for our friends at to420, a creative studio writing wonderful music on request.

They tend to believe in stories told by real people. That is why we created true life stories about real people who keep their promises. Stories that got under the skin and into the heart of our audience and caused the unprecedentedly warm response. Many people across Russian regions live simple lives not asking for recognition, money or fame. They do what they have to do, and often do it for others, disregarding their own needs. Such is the Russian common folk is. No matter the circumstances and difficulties he faces, he will keep his word, once given. He is reliable, unpretentious, honest, and humble. Selfless acts are common and expected of him. His close ones depend on him. You can rely on him, but he can rarely rely on his car, which is usually an either a poorly built one or an old one. Reliable person needs a reliable car. We elevate the everyday challenges of our everyday hero to the level of deep human drama, and we celebrate those who keep their word no matter the circumstances. As a result, VTR and CTR were 2-4 times above market norm and the average viewing time was 75%, 3 times greater than the 30” benchmark defined for video of automotive segment.

There is no censorship and no problems in Russia. At least, that’s what they say officially in mass media. There is no other opinion in Russia, since TV Rain – the country’s only independent TV-channel – was taken off air by all satellite and cable providers because of an order from ‘above’. TV Rain, however, hasn’t stopped covering the real state of affairs in Russia. Now one can get an access to truth only through paid subscriptions. In 2015 Vladimir Putin publicly declared to ease the censorship burden. He did it again in 2016 and 2017 during his annual press conferences. But the miracle did not happen. A week before the regular press conference we launched ‘Putin turns on the Rain’.Everyone could get access to TV Rains’s broadcast for 24 hours access for free if they demonstrated the president’s portrait to the web camera.

Our challenge was to launch the new 14nm mining ASIC chip on the market that's expecting 7nm chips. Yeah, it's that complicated. Customers are expecting something really small, but we delivered something better: a more powerful, more efficient and more reliable chip. Because it's not the size or the looks that matter, but the performance. Our creative idea was to compare complicated tech with people. Because when you are hiring, you don't look at gender, sex preferences, age or shirt size. You're looking at how good they are at what they do. That's what matters most.
