    The Best Work You May Never See: 72andSunny, Director Tucker Walsh Put Viewers In Opioid “Treatment Box” For Truth Initiative

    By SHOOTUpdated:No Comments5802 Views

    More than 115 people in America die every day from opioids and, in 2016, 2.5 million young adults (ages 18-25) reported misusing an opioid in the past year, making this one of the most critical public health issues of our time. That’s why Truth Initiative®, the Ad Council and the U.S. Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) collaborated to create The Truth About Opioids campaign, a multi-channel opioid public education truth® effort, which first launched in June.

    Produced in partnership with 72andSunny, the second phase of the campaign has just been unveiled. Titled “Treatment Box,” this phase brings Americans face-to-face with opioid addiction, withdrawal and treatment. The project entailed filming three full days of 26-year-old Rebekkah’s real treatment experience with opioid addiction. That footage was placed on a multimedia installation in NYC  to capture the emotional reactions of passersby viewing the installation that highlights the importance of treatment and the fact that opioid dependency can happen after just five days.

    The Truth About Opioids campaign focuses on preventing and reducing misuse of opioids among youth and young adults. It’s designed to destigmatize addiction by showing how it can happen to anyone and quickly. The campaign is designed to help young people understand the facts about opioids, the risk of addiction and the crucial role young people can play in solving the crisis within their communities.

    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.
