    The Best Work You May Never See: Ron Foth Advertising Takes Flight Into Dinosaur Age For Calif. Academy of Sciences

    By SHOOTUpdated:No Comments2361 Views

    Millions of years ago, pterosaurs ruled the skies. Neither birds nor dinosaurs, they were something all their own, and the largest creatures ever to fly. And now these winged wonders are back–soaring over San Francisco–in a new campaign for the California Academy of Sciences. Developed by Ron Foth Advertising in Columbus, Ohio, the campaign introduces the Academy’s new exhibit, Pterosaurs: Flight in the Age of Dinosaurs. The TV and online commercial spot features life-like pterosaurs flying over the Golden Gate Bridge, the San Francisco skyline, and the Academy itself in Golden Gate Park. The campaign’s digital, print and radio ads showcase rare fossils, and bring their prehistoric stories to life.

    Spot was directed by Ron Foth Jr. of Ron Foth Advertising, with animation from Copenhagen-based studio Ghost VFX.

    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the emotional strength and resilience of every woman who faces and overcomes obstacles every day, and boldly challenges outdated stereotypes.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.
