    GUT, Director Tucker Walsh Put Veterans Day Into Perspective For Fisher House Foundation

    By SHOOTUpdated:No Comments2238 Views

    Creative agency GUT, founded by Anselmo Ramos and Gaston Bigio, along with The Fisher House Foundation and director Tucker Walsh of m ss ng p eces have rolled out this piece timed to Veterans Day on November 11. Fisher House maintains a program that provides a “home away from home” for families of patients receiving medical care at major military and VA medical centers.

    Veterans Day has long been regarded as a national holiday to honor military veterans who have served in the United States Armed Forces. However, over time, America has lost sight of its original intent, and its true meaning is often overshadowed by retail promotions and discounts, football and free food.

    To remind people of the true importance of Veterans Day, GUT filmed real veterans who fought in World War II, Vietnam and Korea reacting to Veterans Day sale ads and discussing what the day means to them. Their honest reactions and responses remind us that the true spirit of Veterans Day is not for sale. This campaign, a first from GUT, aims to take back Veterans Day and honor all who have served and currently serve.

    The campaign will run across Fisher House Foundation owned social channels (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) and GUT social channels. 

    “With this campaign, we want to highlight how far we have shifted the conversation away from the original significance behind Veterans Day,” said Ramos, co-founder and CCO of GUT. “We hope that by highlighting veterans’ reactions in this manner we will remind people that Veterans Day is not about the next shopping sale, but was created to celebrate and honor these heroes and the sacrifices they’ve made.”

    Top Spot of the Week: AlmapBBDO, Director Lu Villaca Team On A Show Of Strength For Women and Johnnie Walker

    Thursday, December 19, 2024

    Johnnie Walker wraps up the year with an inspiring campaign that is a direct and bold response to those who would question the strength of women. Created by AlmapBBDO in São Paulo, Brazil, this anthem film--“Forte São Elas” (“Strong are the Women”) starring actress Alice Braga--references one of the most iconic productions in the brand’s history worldwide:”The Man Who Walked Around The World.” Produced by Surreal Hotel Arts, directed by Lu Villaça, and featuring an original soundtrack by Cabaret Studio, “Forte São Elas” shows Braga walking as she describes how strength plays an essential role in the daily life of every woman. Whether facing stereotypes or countless other barriers, women are the masters of their own choices and stay true to their journeys. “The campaign recognizes the emotional strength and resilience of every woman who faces and overcomes obstacles every day, and boldly challenges outdated stereotypes. And when they say that whisky is too strong for women, we will tell them: it’s the women who are strong,” said Andrea Rubim, head of marketing for Johnnie Walker.
