    TJ O’Grady Peyton Directs Another Kind of Ultimate Driving Machine For BMW, KBS

    By SHOOTUpdated:No Comments3187 Views

    The “Ultimate Driving Machine” slogan takes on new meaning in this spot as the focus turns to the BMW-designed U.S. Paralympic Team performance wheelchair. 

    Each year, BMW meets with a variety of Olympic teams to determine where the greatest need and opportunity for positive impact exists. For the 2016 Rio Olympic games, BMW is putting its support behind the Paralympic track athletes with the goal of increasing visibility and support for the Paralympic Games. As the proud designer of the 2016 U.S. Paralympic Team performance wheelchair, BMW partnered with agency KBS to create a :60 spot, “Built For Gold,” to celebrate BMW’s commitment to all Olympians. The spot features Josh George, four-time Paralympian, putting in the miles on BMW’s Performance Wheelchair as he prepares for Rio. As he makes his way down the winding roads of Champion, Illinois, we’re reminded of the long hours, distances, and roads it takes to be a champion. 
     
    Directed by TJ O’Grady Peyton of production house Decon, the spot will run during the Olympic Opening Ceremony on broadcast and digital channels. There will also be a social component initiated during the Closing Ceremony that aims to keep momentum and enthusiasm alive during the two week period between the Olympics ending and the Paralympics beginning.

    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.
