This spot features a technician showing an expectant mother how to use the home charger on her Chevy Bolt EUV. When the expectant mother says she hopes being a mom is as easy, the female technician laughs as to offer comfort and then says, “It’s not.”
At least Chevrolet makes some things easy by covering the cost of standard installation of Level 2 home charging capability for eligible customers who buy or lease a 2022 Bolt EUV or Bolt EV.
Titled “Life Changes,” the spot was directed by Simon McQuoid of Imperial Woodpecker for Commonwealth//McCann.

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
