Gillette Lights Up Boston Harbor for the USA Olympic Team
Just as the world finished watching the Opening Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games, Procter & Gamble and Gillette staged an unforgettable event to wish Team USA a great start to The Olympics. The event was a spectacle of light and water featuring 60-foot holograms of Team USA athletes Tyson Gay launching off the blocks and Ryan Lochte diving into historic Boston Harbor. Set to the music of M83 "Steve McQueen", the event officially launched Gillette's global 'Get Started' campaign.
Part science, part nature and part digital art, Gillette created a series of projected light displays on buildings throughout Boston culminating in a massive water show. The event used half a dozen projectors to display video images of Ryan Lochte and Tyson Gay in action on two massive screens of particulate water vapor sprayed above the surface of the water adjacent to Boston's Institute of Contemporary Art.

The Olympic Athlete A Look Inside GE TV Ad
New commercial for GE takes a look inside a 2012 Olympic Athlete.
The human body is an amazing thing. Olympic athletes perform feats that require power, speed, grace, and unimaginable coordination. Take a deeper look -- past the cheering crowds and the gold medals -- and see inside the body of an Olympic athlete.
In this video GE's advanced imaging technology lets you see how a swimmer generates the power needed to shave .1 seconds off his time, how a biker's arm muscles strain to help propel him forward, and how a runner's leg strides toward the finish line. These candid images demonstrate why biceps need triceps, how a shoulder creates torque, and why a longer muscle is a swifter muscle -- insights that can be insightful for Olympic training.

BBC Sport Advert for London 2012 Olympic Games
The trail is based around the concept of 'Stadium UK' -- bringing the nation together in a huge Olympic Stadium to enjoy the BBC's comprehensive coverage of the London 2012 Games. Designed to be used across all the BBC's television, radio and digital Olympic content, it features the specially commissioned music First Steps by Elbow.
BBC comes under fire recently for their animated ad promoting the 2012 Olympics for copying the Lloyds TSB ad. Ironically both promotional spots were created by the ad agency Rainey Kelly Campbell Roalfe Y&R. The BBC’s trailer features the UK as a huge stadium with athletes preparing and competing for the Games which start on July 27.
Lloyds TSB’s ‘For the Journey’ adverts are known for their animated characters and utopian landscapes set to the classical piece Eliza's Aria by Elena Kats-Chernin.
The BBC advert featured cartoon swimmers in lanes created by buoys cast out by a fisherman, a BMX rider on a cliff edge and track cyclists racing around quarries.
Here's our new London 2012 TV ad (above). The ad brings together some of the favourite characters from previous Lloyds TSB adverts and shows how we're bringing London 2012 closer to communities all across the UK.
And, the ad features a new version of Eliza Aria, the great piece of music that's become as synonymous with Lloyds TSB TV adverts as the familiar voice of Julie Walters.
BBC 2012 marketing head Louisa Fyans said: ‘Animation enabled us to deliver to this brief and helped us create something really special for the BBC's London 2012 campaign.’
It was seen by millions – as Gary Lineker and his cohorts pulled in a peak of 15.5 million, averaging 13 million for the game.
The advert - which uses the tagline ‘wherever you are, never miss a moment with the BBC’ - will be used in the title sequence for the BBC’s Olympics TV coverage.
A Rainey Kelly spokesman said: ‘It is the culmination of a lot of hard work and we are very excited to feel part of the inspiration that this summer will bring.’

Adidas invited a group of people to take the stage in support of TeamGB, as part of the campaign a photo booth was installed. The surprise of a lifetime was unveiled at Westfield Stratford City as adidas brought astonished shoppers face to face with David Beckham.
This campaign got me thinking of two things, what a genuinely great person Beckham is, he seems be an approachable celebrity unlike so many celebrities are today, and secondly this sweet kid...it was hard for myself to hold back a tear as I watched this boy who just met his idol cry. It got me thinking who would I cry for, who would make you cry?

Coca-Cola | Move to the Beat of the London 2012 Olympic Torch Relay
To celebrate the London 2012 Olympic Torch Relay and your Future Flames, Coca-Cola brought the UK's hottest music artists to 66 nights of celebration around the UK.
Take a look back at the most memorable moments of the relay, as we follow the Olympic Flame on its journey from Land's End, all around the country and back to London in preparation of the Finale in Hyde Park and the start of the London 2012 Olympic Games. Featuring Dizzee Rascal, Eliza Doolittle, Friendly Fires, The Wanted, You Me At Six, Emeli Sandé, Labrinth, Rizzle Kicks, The Wombats and Wretch 32. via: YouTube
Also celebrating this Olympics Coca-Cola recently unveiled the "BeatBox" building, designed by architects Asif Khan and Pernilla Ohrstedt which will promote Coke's "Move To The Beat" ad campaign. The building was built with 230 bolsters that respond to touch with sound, the structure becomes one giant instrument.
Mark Ronson's "Move to the Beat" anthem -- which has sounds like the squeaking of sports shoes, heartbeats, or an arrow striking a target -- is the centerpiece of the building: visitors that touch the structure at different parts will essentially be remixing the track. Visitors can also climb up the exterior, and upon reaching the roof, will see the view of Olympic Park. Within the structure are different light and sound installations as well, designed by Jason Bruges Studio in Hackney. via: creativity-online

"Everyone at Ogilvy is very hands-on, explains Superlounges Jordan Brady. I learned a lot from the creative team. How do you motivate people about gasoline? Prices fluctuate and, frankly, it's not something people like to talk about. But the team found a way to motivate, crafting an anthem-like spot.

Australian supermarket giant Woolworths enlisted the music and lovely voice of Gossling to sing Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, I Love You in this new TV commercial.
Gossling is the name on the tip of everybody's tongue at the moment. "That voice" you may recognize from recent Triple J hit “Wild Love”, her performance as part of the wedding challenge on Channel 9's The Block, or perhaps from triple platinum, "Boys Like You" on which she guests with 360.

After putting her Psychology/Sociology studies on hold to concentrate on a Bachelor of Music (Composition), Croome met the musicians now joining her as Gossling.
Gossling's style is distinctive and sweet; mixing heart felt lyrics with graceful melodies. Prepare to be charmed, heart broken and delighted as Gossling enchants your ears and warms your heart.

Adidas’ Ajax Experience Prank
The Adidas Ajax Experience prank might not go over so well here in North America but in Amsterdam, Adidas and the ad agency Iris pulled off an epic prank.
Imagine: The new home shirt of your favorite football/soccer team has arrived. You go to the fan shop to try one on and Adidas pulls this on you with the help of the entire Ajax soccer team.
A series of fake fitting rooms were installed inside the Ajax Experience, Amsterdam. Inside one room, one of the walls was fake with a two-way mirror. When fans entered the room and started trying on their jersey, the mirror/wall suddenly opened. And there were Ajax players Vurnon Anita, Kolbeinn Sigthorsson, Daley Blind, Jasper Cillessen, team captain Siem de Jong and women's team players and Leonne Stentler Babiche Roof to cheer them on.

Racy CougarLife Billboard is Sure To Cause Some Trouble
This new billboard popped up on Sunset Boulevard today for CougarLife, we'll just back and enjoy the fallout from all the Mother F$%#kers.
via LAWeekly by By Dennis Romero
We're not sure what's scarier, the new billboard above Sunset Boulevard that declares "CougarLife.com for MOTHER F***ERS" or the fact that there is actually a site for such classy MILF-chasers and granny-philes.
Okay, they're not all grandmothers. The recommended starting age for a cougar-dating search on the site is 35.
Feel sleazy? Just wait, because CougarLife claims that ...the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, home of said tasteful billboard, is the epicenter of American cougardom.
Cindy Rocker, the site's "head of cougar relations" (really), claims the 90069 zip code (hair city USA) has the most cougars per capita of any other zip code.
It's like the Def Leppard groupies moved there in 1985 and never left, yeah?
Anyway, this is supposed to be about that startlingly shocking billboard. A publicist says it's "controversial" and that it's "turning heads."
Sure.
Who are these bottom-feeding, cougar-hungry people anyway? Oh yeah, men.
