Gatorade’s inspirational new film, “Every Day Is Your Day,” features sports icon Mia Hamm and rising U.S. star Mallory Pugh and taps into the iconic Dr. Seuss poem, “Oh the places you’ll go,” to demonstrate the powerful impact that sports can have on young athletes’ lives.
The film is part of the brand’s Sisters in Sweat initiative, which addresses an alarming stat: by age 17, girls drop out of sports at 1.5x the rate of their male peers, and as a result, disproportionately miss out on the skills and long-term benefits associated with playing sports.
“Every Day Is Your Day” is meant to inspire young athletes about the power, skills and confidence instilled by playing sports.
Rachel McDonald of Biscuit Filmworks directed the piece.

CarMax, The Martin Agency, Director Ulf Johansson Take Us To Car Dealership Run By Beetlejuice
CarMax, the used car retailer known for promoting “the way car buying should be,” understands that sometimes the best way to appreciate doing things the right way is by showcasing the wrong way. In collaboration with the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice team--which is elated given that the movie topped this weekend’s North American box office--CarMax is taking a playful approach to show what car buying shouldn’t be. Showing a family’s nightmarish car-buying experience by turning a character from the movie into possibly the most devious car salesman ever, the campaign, titled “BeetleMax: The Way Car Buying Shouldn’t Be,” humorously illustrates what to avoid when purchasing a car, highlighting CarMax’s commitment to providing a trustworthy and enjoyable car-buying experience for the whole family.
The campaign, concepted by The Martin Agency and directed by Ulf Johansson via Smith and Jones Films--includes this hero spot depicting a car dealership, Beetlemax, run by Beetlejuice himself.
“Beetlejuice is among Warner Bros. most beloved franchises and continues to be sought out by audiences of all ages. Theatrical partnerships with brands like CarMax and their BeetleMax campaign are exciting because they allow us to extend the cinematic world for moviegoers and offer an enhanced entertainment experience. We are thrilled to be partnering with CarMax in such an innovative and immersive way for Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice,” said Dana Nussbaum, EVP of worldwide marketing for Warner Bros. Pictures.
