London agency adam&eveDDB, Droga5 New York and McCann New York were the leading Gold Pencil winners on the first night (5/8) of The One Show 2019, The One Club for Creativity’s global awards program celebrating excellence in creativity of ideas and quality of execution.

Also winning big was Wieden+Kennedy, Portland, Ore. for Nike’s “Dream Crazy” which was honored with the Gold One Show Cultural Driver Award, recognizing influential ideas and executions that had a major impact in their respective cultures and environments, and exist outside the traditional categories in advertising and design.  Produced by Park Pictures in L.A. with editorial by Joint in Portland, “Dream Crazy” features star and not so prominent athletes striving to excel. It also touches on the controversy of NFL players kneeling during the national anthem to protest racial inequality and instances of police brutality. Kaepernick was the first player to protest in this manner during NFL games, leading to his, some contend, being banished from playing professional football. Kaepernick first appears on camera midway through the commercial. As his face is revealed, a reflection of an American flag is visible on a building facade behind him. At the start of the ad, Kaepernick says, “If people say your dreams are crazy, if they laugh at what you think you can do, good. Stay that way because what nonbelievers fail to understand is that calling a dream crazy is not an insult. It’s a compliment.” He later declares, “Believe in something, even if it means sacrificing everything.”

Lance Acord, Emmanuel “Chivo” Lubezki and Christian Weber of Park Pictures directed “Dream Crazy.”

The top Gold Pencil winner on this first night of The One Show 2019 with a total of eight honors was adam&eveDDB London with Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) London and This Morning ITV London for CALM’s “Project 84.”  The agency’s eight Gold Pencils for “Project 84” consisted of three Golds in Health Wellness & Pharma, two in Creative Effectiveness, two in Design and one in Public Relations.
