For its new “Strip Down to Naked” campaign, the Naked Juice brand teamed with agency Cramer-Krasselt, Chicago, to create work that would inspire people to escape from everyday life–stripping away the unwanted, the hassles of the daily routine–and instead do what makes them feel good, like drinking delicious 100% fruit and veggie juices from Naked Juice.
Visual effects artist Olivier Gondry directed the campaign’s two spots while his brother Michel Gondry, writer and director of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, served as creative director. The Gondrys worked via production house Partizan with Fell Visuals serving as VFX house.
In this spot titled “Sidewalk,” viewers are transported form a busy backdrop of everyday life that is physically stripped way to reveal an escape to a new, serene environment.

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emotional strength and resilience of every woman who faces and overcomes obstacles every day, and boldly challenges outdated stereotypes.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