Nescafé surprised visitors in a coffee bar

People expect to drink a nice cup of coffee when they go to a coffee bar. So what happens when you switch their usual coffee? BBDO Belgium made an experiment. They brought their own Barista in a trendy Ghent coffee bar who served people Nescafé Gold Barista Style. They filmed everything with hidden cameras and you can see their reactions when people were told that they had actually been drinking the new NESCAFÉ Gold Barista Style.

Dove: Choose Beautiful over Average

Dove's new social experiment asks women to choose how to see themselves. They placed the labels "Beautiful" and "Average" above walk through doorways in San Francisco, Shanghai, Delhi, London and Sao Paulo, so women could choose under which label they will cross. Then Dove, asked them about their choice.

Dove wants to prove that beauty is a choice and the power of this choice is in any woman's hands.

Seems good at first, but if you think it over, this label idea makes the average look really ugly which is not good. I don't say that women shouldn't see themselves as beautiful. They should. The problem here is that Dove labels average as the lowest score.

Diversity & Inclusion – Love Has No Labels

Love has no labels. This installation with dancing and kissing skeletons proves that before anything else, we are all human and calls us to stop discrimination and embrace diversity. To put aside labels in the name of love.

Did you know that we do 98% of our thinking in our subconscious mind? This might be the reason that many people in the US still report feeling discriminated against, though most Americans agree that people should be treated respectfully and fairly.

The important thing is to educate ourselves and watch for biases when they surface. Implicit bias influences how people are treated and how they interact with each other. It can also perpetuate disparities by altering someone’s ability to find a job, secure a loan, rent an apartment or get a fair trial.

To end bias, we need to become aware of it. And then we need to do everything within our power to stop it. In ourselves, others, and institutions. The world will be a better place for it.

During the World Cup, Knacki ball has launched its limited edition Knacki Football, Knacki balls which resemble small footballs. So they completely transformed the interior of a vending machine located in Antwerp Central’s train station into the world's smallest football stadium. The #footballmachine.

Passersby were asked to press a button to receive their free sample. Once they did, to their surprise the door opened and the mini football stadium appeared.

McDonald's: Save the Sundae Cone

A giant billboard with a melting McDonald's Sundae Cone was placed in the middle of Bukit Bintang, one of the most famous shopping districts in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. People could use their smartphones and spin the fan on the billboard to bring down the temperature, stop the melting and receive a 10 minutes voucher for a free Sundae Cone. Funny, interactive and relevant to the product. Nice work.

Yaocho: The Sleeping Drunks Billboard

This stunt will make all drinkers in Tokyo to think twice before they drink. There is a big problem in Japan with thousands of people who drink till they drop and sleep on the street. To address the problem of Drunk Sleeping, the bar chain Yaocho with the help of Ogilvy & Mather and Geometry Global, turned sleeping drunks into human billboards against excessive drinking. All they needed was duck tape, printed headlines, logos and a hashtag. See the case study.

Heineken‏: The Better Halves

You have half of the ticket for the Champions League Final. Would you ask your better half to perform the Champions League anthem live to get you the other half? That’s what Heineken and the digital advertising agency NEXT-DC asked Bulgarian fans and the answer was positive.

62 wives and girlfriends took the stage all because of their men and their passion for the game. Custom hardware and voice recognition software detected the three performances that were closest to the timing of the original anthem. They were awarded with the second half of the ticket and a seat at the Final.

So, bars sell beers and get on Instagram, customers gets discounts, Carlsberg gets content. Everybody's happy.

Coke Zero: What do pétanque, knitting and fishing have in common?

Zero. A magic number which when added it can mean nothing or change everything. In Duval Guillaume's latest stunt for the Coca-Cola Zero "Just Add Zero" campaign they did just that. They added zero and changed everything.

They asked ordinary people playing pétanque, knitting and fishing to film them. As you can imagine all of these hobbies have non-to-a-few spectators only. Then they added zero. 6 spectators became 60 then 600. Fishermen, knitting ladies and petanque players felt like superstars when, out of nowhere, supporters started to appear, cheering, creating a crazy atmosphere. (Thanks Sophie)
