M&M characters come to the rescue for a passed-out Santa Claus, delivering his gifts to everyone. Only problem is that they delivered them to the wrong people–but somehow that's even better because folks have to seek one another out to make sure the right gifts fall into the proper hands. M&Ms brings people together this holiday season, in another whimsical adventure from animation studio HouseSpecial for agency CLM/BBDO Paris.

ServicePlan, Director Niclas Larsson Take Us On A Far-flung Journey For Lufthansa
Lead agency Serviceplanโs new cross-media campaign for Lufthansa, โAll it Takes is a Yes,โ includes this short film which follows a protagonist who is magically transported from her daily office life to dream destinations with just a simple tap on the Lufthansa app. We accompany her on a wonderful journey, discovering inspiring local experiences along the way. We see her at a dumpling shop in Shanghai, swimming in the turquoise waters near Rio de Janeiro, grabbing a sandwich at a New York deli, exploring the bustling streets of Mumbai, dancing at a wedding party in Rome and marvelling at the desert in South Africa. Along the way she connects with a character whoโs seemingly following her. Inspired by magical realism, director Niclas Larsson via production house Iconoclast has crafted a stunning visual journey that perfectly blends reality and dream. The campaign was developed and implemented by an international Serviceplan team under the creative lead of Serviceplan Germany chief creative officer Till Diestel, and global executive creative directors Erick Barrios Hernรกndez and Wolfgang Warzilek.
