This year, Uber Eats’ star-studded Super Bowl spot from agency Special U.S. highlights that you can get almost anything delivered with Uber Eats. But in order for folks to remember that, they have to forget something else…
In the ad, for example, Jennifer Aniston forgets she’s Friends with David Schwimmer, the Beckhams fumble to remember the Spice Girls, Jelly Roll doesn’t understand why the ink on his face won’t rub off, and USHER wishes he could host a Super Bowl halftime show.
Jake Szymanski directed the Big Game spot via production house Gifted Youth.

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 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
