Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, Martin Scorsese in The Audition

An (allegedly) $70 million commercial finds Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro fighting for the same role, in a Martin Scorsese Film. "May the best man win," De Niro tells his rival. "No, I don't even want to say it like that. Let the best person for the part be the person who's in the part." We also see Brad Pitt appearing in a still image in the second spot.

"The Audition", written by Terence Winter (The Wolf of Wall Street) and produced by Brett Ratner. is a short film that promotes 2 new Casinos, Studio City in Macau, China and City of Dreams in Manila, Philippines.

The Ad Doritos Don't Want You to See

It starts like a perfect Doritos cheesy love story. But things change when the cheesy couple learn that PepsiCo, Doritos' parent company, buys 427,500 tonnes of palm oil every year and that the production of palm oil destroys rainforest and threatens species to the point of extinction. This deforestation results in the death of over 1,000 Sumatran orangutans every year. The ad was made from Sum of Us, who is a world-wide movement focused on creating a better global economy.

Ikea: The joy of storage

Disposing bombs, operating on someone's brain or fight fires may be tough jobs to do. But it's nothing compared to being an Ad Man.

Wieden + Kennedy made 3 funny videos for the ANDY Awards 2015 Call for Entries. An Explosive Ordnance Disposal Specialist who would choose the bombs over an advertising job trying to make killer social media campaigns in a week.
