    The Art of the Meal: Google Translate, m ss ng p eces Bring People Together to Celebrate Food From Different Cultures

    By SHOOTUpdated:No Comments3387 Views

    Production house m ss ng p eces conceived this pop up restaurant idea with Google, designed all branding components, and produced every aspect of the experience, telling the vibrant story of an experiential event in the #EveryoneSpeaksFood film. The experience entails bringing food from different global cultures to Small World (Google Translates’ free pop up restaurant in NY), for a single meal, illustrating that food is a universal language.

    The experience brings dishes and more importantly people from different cultures together, forming a community united by food.

    The project was headed by PARTY executive creative director Masa Kawamura, who had recently joined the m ss ng p eces roster. Executive producer Kate Oppenheim explained the impetus for the campaign, “Everyone Speaks Food is an idea that celebrates the connections that we build over a meal and the richness of food cultures around in the world. We were inspired by the way that Google Translate creates functional and personal connects between people everywhere.”

    TDA Boulder, Director Michael Downing Tackle Banking Clichés In “No Nonsense” Campaign For First Interstate

    Thursday, August 27, 2026

    Indie ad agency TDA Boulder has unveiled “No Nonsense Banking,” its debut campaign for new client First Interstate Bank. The rolling launch runs through the end of the year, and spans across 10 states.

    The batch of spots includes this one titled “Every Step,” epitomizing a call to end the nonsense. “Every Step” opens on a couple experiencing life’s biggest moments (marriage proposal, first child, a kid learning to drive, and packing up for college). Each meaningful moment, though, has one odd addition: their banker is actually really there, experiencing those moments with them. The unexpected inclusion calls out the cliché that banks love to be with you every step of the way, even in life’s most intimate moments. The spot lands on the twist: First Interstate isn’t promising to be there for every step; just the ones that matter, with a straight answer and a real person on the other end.

    Michael Downing directed via The Sweetshop x Chirp Films.
