On January 30, 2017, at 10:30 PM, under the pretext of poor prison conditions reported by E.U., the government passed an emergency ordinance that would help corrupt politicians escape justice and this decision lead to Romania’s greatest post communism protest. Primus, a small brand of construction materials, focused on responsible honest handymen, wanted to show support for a protest that fights dishonest decisions. The brand made a public commitment to solve the heart of the issue: if the government repeals the ordinance in due time, Primus will donate renovation materials for fixing up Romanian prisons. Each day the government postponed the decision, the brand would help renovate less prisons. Thus, 18 prisons are today renovated with Primus adhesives, grout and concrete screed.

Studies show that every year, in Romania, 2/3 of underprivileged children interrupt school by the end of 8th grade, because they are put to work. Having the mission to help underprivileged children to continue their education, the non-profit international organization United Way asked Rusu+Bortun to create a PSA, in order to raise awareness about this problem. Coming from the insight that children who interrupt school have a much lower chance to recover and build a career, we came up with this idea idea: To interrupt school is to interrupt a career. Every child is a potential adult with a successful career. But children who drop out of school, even just for a while, will never fullfill their potential. To show the consequences of interrupting education, we took this idea into the future by applying it to adult careers.

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.

The existence of filter bubbles and echo chambers on social media platforms presents a wide variety of challenges to brands and people interested in reaching a wide audience across political allegiances and cultural divisions. The nature of the web is to reinforce what we already know and like. Algorithms are designed to show us content that aligns with our own predispositions, and people’s historical behavior online tends to prevent them from seeing or accessing material from opposing viewpoints and perspectives. This leads to customized internet experiences for everyone that rarely stray into the unexpected. Telekom Romania wanted to turn this tendency on its head. As a brand built on sharing content, it worked with Leo Burnett Bucharest to devise an attention-getting stunt that would open up young people’s eyes to communities and perspectives far from their ordinary inclinations. The brand launched Vloggers’ Swap. Vloggers’ Swap was built on a deep analysis of the data of different Vlog channels on Youtube. LB/Bucharest identified Vlog channels whose audiences did not overlap at all. These groups of young viewers had very little in common, and their viewing habits led them to inhabit very rigid filter bubbles. For one day, Telekom Romania initiated a “swap” of these Vlogs with their polar opposite vlogger, helping to introduce each specific audience to a perspective and vlogger far out of their normal comfort zone. This stunt drew massive interest in Romania, and helped Vlog channels to broaden their appeal to audiences they normally wouldn’t reach. Launched to coincide with Telekom Romania’s offer of unlimited video, this work serves up a fantastic example of how brands are helping people to build wider audiences in spite of the algorithms that would limit their reach and appeal. By helping millennials to broaden their viewing diet, Telekom Romania is cultivating a younger audience of viewers who cannot be restricted by the constraints of filter bubbles or echo chambers. As Telekom Romania has championed for years, “life is for sharing.” Digital advertisement created by Leo Burnett, Romania for Telekom Romania, within the category: Electronics, Technology.

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.
