 | Duration: 30 seconds BBDO New York and Mill+ teamed on this public service commercial which shows an ape pick up a gun and place it under his chin, about to commit suicide. The piece articulates the harm that is done to apes when they are cast in commercials and entertainment. The startling revelation is that an ape doesn't appear in this spot although viewers would clearly think otherwise. | |

 | Duration: 60 seconds Mike Mills of The Directors Bureau directed this commercial in which young twin daughters tell us about the bear in their lives.

 | Duration: 2 minutes Creative production company Portal A turned out this video which depicts a woman overloaded with work on a business trip, her hotel room serving as an office.

 | Duration: 60 seconds David Gordon Green of Chelsea directed this spot featuring the iconic Agent Smith from The Matrix who serves as the ideal narrator/spokesperson for GE's innovative Healthcare technology.

 | Duration: 60 seconds Baker Smith of harvest films directed this :60 starring the AFLAC duck--but uncharacteristically our feathered friend never quacks the brand cry "AFLAC." Instead the duck is silent throughout as we see him progress through sessions of physical therapy, initially barely able to climb stairs, lift weights or paddle in the water. | |

 | Duration: 30 seconds Brigg Bloomquist--who's being handled by GO Film--directed this :30 which depicts the sprawling, image-obsessed Los Angeles market. Boutique agency Union Made Creative was tasked with developing a grand theme that could not only hold all the disparate sports in the region but also nod to the city's preoccupation with fame and the oft-overlooked work it takes to attain it. | |

 | Duration: 60 seconds Jim Jenkins of O Positive directed this spot which shows what an ambitious youngster can do for his science project once he accesses the Fios Quantum Internet network. The results make for an entertaining tie-in to the upcoming "Iron Man 3." | |
