    Leo Burnett Tailor Made Creates Web Tool To Help Find Missing Persons

    By SHOOTUpdated:No Comments955 Views

    Thousands of websites use a captcha tool, a cognitive test used to block spam by telling computers and humans apart. Normally, distorted words and numbers are displayed to the Internet user as a way to confirm that he or she is not a robot and thus can proceed to gain access the website. What if, instead of meaningless words, it were possible to give it a social purpose?

    With optimizing this space in mind, Leo Burnett Tailor Made in São Paulo, Brazil, created the “Missing Captcha” for the NGO Mothers of Sé, which consists of replacing the random words with the names and dates of disappearance of missing persons. “The person’s photo appears along with the name and date of disappearance. We also created a shortcut for Internet users to send messages to the NGO should they have seen or have any information on that person in the picture,” explained Marcio Juniot, creative director for Leo Burnett Tailor Made.

    To the portals that would like to join the campaign can simply visit the website of the Missing Captcha and incorporate the code into their HTML, at no cost. The security tool will display pictures, names and dates of missing persons, giving families’ greater hope.

    The expectation is that the portals will mobilize to support the cause. After all, the more people who see these pictures and names, the greater the chances of these missing persons being found. According to Mothers of Sé, it is very difficult to give a precise figure on the number of people who go missing in the country every year, but estimates place the number close to 40,000 cases annually.

    Mothers of Sé is a non-profit organization incorporated in 1996 by Ivanise Esperidão da Silva. After her daughter went missing just 120 meters from her home, Ivanise, feeling helpless and disorientated, began meeting with other mothers on the steps of the Sé Cathedral (in downtown São Paulo) holding up signs with pictures of their missing children, in protest. Today Ivanise is the president of the association that is engaged in the search for missing children. They today tend to the family and friends of missing persons–regardless of age–throughout the country and also provide them with psychological assistance.

    The Docter Twins Direct Part 2 Of FactSets’ “Not Just The Facts” Comedy Campaign From VSA Partners

    Thursday, November 21, 2024

    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.

    The new creative picks up where the previous left off. This time it focuses on a particularly boorish office worker, drolly played by character actor Wyndham Maxwell, who ticks off an encyclopedic list of facts and non sequiturs during business meetings and to the bemusement of his colleagues.

    The tongue-in-cheek campaign, which plays more like a perfect-pitch comedy series than a typical B2B commercial effort, is a major departure from financial services industry norm--both in its use of humor and in its humanistic approach. Starting this week, FactSet will roll out 16 unique spots—a combination of :30s, :15s, :06s and nine “shorts”—across multiple channels including digital, streaming and CTV.

    This :30, “Dinos,” has an office worker’s relevant reference to dinosaurs spark our boorish colleague who proceeds to utter one irrelevant fact after another about the prehistoric creatures.

    The Los Angeles–based Docter Twins (Matthew and Jason Docter) directed the original campaign and this new humorous work through their production company, Thinking Machine. The identical twin... Read More
