Intuity Medical, Inc., a medical technology company, rolled out a campaign promoting Pogo Automatic, which checks out a person’s blood sugar level sans any of the typical hassles involved–such as having to wear a glucose sensor.
Conceived by creative agency Cutwater, the campaign includes two centerpiece spots, including this one titled “Pickleball” which introduces us to two naturist pickleballers. They play the sport stark naked, except for socks and sneakers. The woman also has to wear a glucose sensor on her arm, which makes her feel self-conscious on the court. But Pogo Automatic comes to the rescue, meaning she can return to the court unencumbered.
Hank Perlman of production company Hungry Man directed both commercials in the “You’re Good To Pogo” campaign.

Uber Eats launches its new brand platform for the U.K.--”When You’ve Done Enough, Uber Eats”--which celebrates moments of often-needed relaxation and downtime delivered by Uber Eats. The first in a series of films has been rolled out to showcase iconic figures entertainingly embracing their downtime.
“Evil’d Enough” stars Academy Award winner (No Country For Old Men) Javier Bardem, who is well known for playing malevolent characters during his acting career. This TV commercial is directed by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker David Shane and produced through O Positive for agency Mother in London.
Bardem said “Playing a bad guy can be very demanding. Even villains deserve a little downtime after a long day of being evil. And that’s exactly what Uber Eats delivers.”
“Evil’d Enough” parachutes us into what appears to be the middle of a classic film scene, starring Bardem in his next iconic evil role. He and his generals sit at a menacing boardroom table in his lair, discussing the next steps for world domination (for what must be the millionth time). But when Bardem decides he’s had enough of evil-ing for the day, he knows exactly what he wants: a little downtime, provided by sushi ordered on Uber Eats.
Director Shane said, “It’s such a strong idea. We’ve all kind of chafed under the weight of other people’s expectations for us. We may not all be cinematic evil masterminds, but we’ve all needed a break. Javier was a gem to work with. Super invested and really collaborative. There was never a false moment from him. It was just a lovely magical couple of days.”
The integrated campaign launched yesterday (2/3) across the U.K.
