As a celebration of spontaneous inspiration and creativity, Adobe Creative Cloud, in collaboration with creative advertising agency Pereira O’Dell launched a nationwide competition for college students to create a movie poster for a film that had yet to be created–until now.
Created by Boston University student Sam West, the winning poster was selected out of more than 1,1000 submissions, and inspired In The Time It Takes To Get There, a short film written and directed by Zach Braff, marking his first creation at his new roost, RSA Films. The short was lensed by cinematographer Mauro Fiore, ASC, an Oscar winner for Avatar.
The quirky comedic, RSA-produced film features elements of West’s winning #MoviePosterMovie poster and sports a cast which includes Alicia Silverstone and Florence Pugh. In The Time It Takes To Get There is a celebration of individual creativity and testament of the success of Adobe & Pereira O’Dell’s unique approach to branded content that puts the consumer in control.

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 campaign was built on a core strategic insight: While quality data is critical for financial professionals, facts in isolation provide little value. FactSet’s personalization, data connectivity, open and flexible technology, and dedicated service and support provide the context necessary for the investment community to turn facts into valuable insights--and make the most of them.
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. Starting this week, FactSet will roll out 16 unique spots—a combination of :30s, :15s, :06s and nine “shorts”—across multiple channels including digital, streaming and CTV.
This :30, “Dinos,” has an office worker’s relevant reference to dinosaurs spark our boorish colleague who proceeds to utter one irrelevant fact after another about the prehistoric creatures.
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
