Set on game day in a big city, sports fans have all turned into animals–literally–as they make their way to see the big match-up either at the stadium or a local bar. Among the animal activities: There are chimps swinging from traffic lights and swarming a ticket office, an orangutan hanging out of the window of a taxi, bears growling at each other while playing a game of table soccer, and sea lions flooding a subway platform and exchanging words with a group of hyenas crowded onto a subway car.

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

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.

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
