Christmas is about magic and larger-than-life stories. In this case a weird story serves as a white lie on christmas eve. A lumberjack who lives in the misty mountains takes center stage in a father’s phantasy. Alone with nature he grows his own kind of trees. In his tree nursery the trees are all slanted. Even his small hut is full of objects and furniture which is bent in the same way. Nevertheless his son hesitates to buy into the story his dad came up with. It rather seems to be a nice white lie to excuse his failure. Film advertisement created by Publicis, Romania for Carrefour, within the categories: Food, Retail Services.

Summer can be a nightmare for teens in the city, watching their Facebook feed getting filled with happy vacation photos posted by their friends. To release that tension KFC is launching the Fakation concept – allowing everyone to take a fake vacation while staying at the city center. During the campaign, KFC branches would turn into resorts, tray liners and floor stickers in the restaurants would allow teens to troll their friends by faking a vacation photo using their regular mobile phone camera, and a website will show tips and tricks how to create the perfect vacation visuals – without getting there for real.

Black suit, gloves, oversized sunglasses. Does this outfit ring any bell? In the world of fashion, the most popular icons deliberately choose to wear the same clothes everyday and make it a personal trademark. How important is it to get out of your comfort zone and try new styles, then? To find out the answer, Baneasa Shopping City and Geometry Global Bucharest launched "The fashion experiment”. 2 characters, 30 days, more than 80 different outfits and 742 photos in order to build parallel Instagram accounts. Same characters, same locations, but different outfits, in order to answer the same old question: shall you keep a constant style or try something new every day? For a month, people decided what they like more, without knowing they are involved in a fashion experiment that will make the headlines for the brand's ATL Winter Sales campaign. The results? People who experiment with more outfits have twice the number of followers on Instagram and 55% more likes than those who display a constant fashion style.

Without a law regulating headphone use in Romania, traffic accidents related to headphone use have tripled in the last 6 years. Radio 21, Romanian hit radio station, changed its content to promote a new behavior: use just one headphone so you can hear the traffic around you. Working with famous Romanian artist Claudia Pavel, the radio station launched the Go Mono Anthem, the first song that has different genres in each headphone: rock if you use the left headphone and acoustic if you listen to it in the right headphone.

It’s a world of multitasking and efficiency and we’re delighted to be connected 24/7 and load our time with as many activities as possible. But is it possible that we forgot the one and most important connection of all? Awake is the kind of festival that wants to disconnect people from multitasking and let them reconnect with themselves through cultural activities, such as forest library, cinema under the bridge, of course, live concerts, arts and many others. As the official sponsor of Awake festival, Grolsch wanted to illustrate how important it is to press pause from time to time and, ultimately, reconnect with ourselves. Grolch invited people to Awake festival in an unconventional way: through a neuroscience & art Experiment which read people's brain waves in real time (using neuro headsets) & translates them into visual art. The Grolsch Awake Experiment repurposed the latest technology to show how beautifully the human brain works when we remove all distractions and focus only on one thing: the music.

Real women who’ve survived domestic violence are giving their voices to scenes from silent movies where female characters are being abused by men, in support of a Romanian domestic violence charity. In Unquiet Voices, a 40-minute film created by Cheil Centrade on behalf of Romanian charity ANAIS, scenes from seven different silent films are intertwined with narratives of romances that became nightmares for women. It is estimated that every 30 seconds, a Romanian woman becomes a victim of domestic abuse, but very few are empowered talk about their experience. The idea of Unquiet Voices is to reveal the almost unnoticed portrayal of violence against women in films and how men copy this wrong behaviour in real life. ANAIS, which supports domestic violence victims, wanted to undo the wrong. With the loss of copyright of dozens of these silent movies on January 1 2019, ANAIS wondered if they could be turned into an empowering cinematographic product for the next generation? The real-life stories brought to life in the movie show different types of abuse, from psychological to economic. sexual, and even attempted murder. The movie talks about physically assaulted women who are left breathless on the floor, men who should be in jail but are walking freely, and children witnessing tragedies. The footage from each movie chapter was taken from seven different silent movies, then rearranged to fit the real stories of victims, whose voices are recorded over the footage to finally unsilence every violent scene. Movies used in the campaign: A Woman of Paris, directed by Charlie Chaplin - 1923 Our Hospitality, directed by Buster Keaton and John G. Blystone - 1923 Flaming Youth, directed by John Francis Dillon- 1923 Safety Last!, directed by Fred C.

Apa Nova, the leading water management company in Romania, announces the launch of a fresh and innovative campaign meant to capture people’s attention regarding the correct use of the sewage system. ‘’Happy ending stories’’ is the concept by which Apa Nova brings to Bucharest’s attention that the sewage system is not a rubbish bin. The forbidden waste thrown in the toilet or in the drain affects both the sewer system and the environment. The campaign was developed by Porter Novelli, a communication agency based in Bucharest, Romania. The campaign was born out of the necessity for a more responsible sewage use: one without forbidden waste disposal such as fats, personal hygiene items, hair, detergents, food scraps and various other items that affect the sewer and the environment in the long run. ‘’Change your ways before your loved one changes their mind about you.’’ is the tagline that encourages the people of Bucharest to become better and more responsible. The campaign is centered around three types of waste which are frequently thrown in the sewer: hair, oil and condoms. These common-use items acquire symbolic value and become a behavioral catalyst for change.
