“You are the sum of your training.” And to exemplify that point, Droga5 went with star New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in this Under Armour spot which shows multiple Bradys going through a daily regimen designed to make him the best football player he can possibly be.
Wally Pfister of RESET directed and shot this spot which continues Under Armour’s “Rule Yourself” campaign.

FactSet, a global financial digital platform and enterprise solutions provider, has partnered with Chicago-based creative agency VSA Partners to unveil a second round of spots in its “Not Just the Facts” campaign. The campaign originally launched back in April.
The campaign was built on a core strategic insight: While quality data is critical for financial professionals, facts in isolation provide little value. FactSet’s personalization, data connectivity, open and flexible technology, and dedicated service and support provide the context necessary for the investment community to turn facts into valuable insights--and make the most of them.
