Five years ago today, It’s On Us launched a movement to empower students to take action to stop sexual assault in their college communities.
Now It’s On Us is celebrating the mission to uplift student voices by releasing its newest video campaign: “I Owe You,” created by ad agency Fancy. The campaign includes three videos with real It’s On Us student leaders who courageously share their stories to help put an end to assault. This piece tells the story of Christina who reads a letter to herself.
Directed by Sheldon Candis via Cutter Productions, the videos will be shown on-campus and paired with live on-campus information sessions, robust on-campus and online discussions, and social media activities led by students. The campaign is being rolled-out nationwide across 250+ college campuses.
“Conversations about sensitive issues like sexual assault are required in order to create change,” stated Erica Fite, co-founder and co-chief creative officer, Fancy. “Witnessing the courage these young people showed in telling their stories and opening their own wounds so that others won’t be hurt resonated with truth and hope and literally brought us all to tears on set—a rare moment in an advertising lifetime.”

The Best Work You May Never See: McCann NY, Director Christian Breslauer Sound Grande For New York Lottery
McCann New York launched a campaign for the New York Lottery which includes this music video-style spot directed by Christian Breslauer of London Alley. The :30 features a signature song, “Sounds Grande,” as we see our featured music video protagonist get into the lotto spirit thanks to the new GRANDE Scratch-Off Games (up to $3 million in cash prizes, and a chance drawing for one of 100 VIP trips to Billboard Latin Music Week in Miami). The new lotto games were designed by McCann Design, inspired by the colorful storefronts of New York bodegas.
