This short film directed by Nicolas Galoux for TBWA/Paris (and produced by TBWAELSE) introduces us to a burn victim who enjoys going to the movies. But he is in the theater only when the lights are off, meaning he arrives late and leaves early. Thus he never sees how the movie ends. For him the silver lining is that he’s never disappointed by the ending of a movie because he simply imagines the ending the way he would like things to turn out.
Most importantly, at least for the time he’s in a darkened theater, he can laugh with other people and feel part of a community–never having to fear being seen and judged by the scars on his face.
This profile of a burn victim is brought to us by The Burns and Smiles Association, founded by Laurent Gaudens, himself severely burnt at the age of 4. Burns and Smiles aims to help burn victims recreate social connections.
This short is designed to raise public awareness of burn victims, and support for The Burns and Smiles Association.

Minties® is taking on dog breath again. And this time, it’s personal.
Back in November, PetIQ’s Minties boldly declared “Dog Breath Is Over” in a newsbreak-style ad that introduced Minties FreshBitesTM--a line of innovative, chewy dog dental treats with that can be offered throughout the day for a long-lasting chew, so nothing gets between you and your dog in your closest moments. America responded by buying new Minties FreshBites by the millions, exceeding the brand’s most optimistic forecasts.
So Minties and independent creative agency TiNY (the team behind the “Dog Breath Is Over” campaign) are following up on this story. And this time, it starts at Minterventions.com. “‘Dog Breath Is Over’ was the big message,” said Jissan Cherian, PetIQ’s chief marketing fficer. “Minterventions makes the message personal. If you’ve got a dog with stinky breath, we want to hear from you.”
TiNY turned out two new spots for the Minterventions phase of the campaign. The first is this one titled “Cabbage” which features a dog named Mollie and an extendable hand. Why the extendable hand? “Mollie’s breath smells like she ate a skunk (who also has bad breath).”. A voiceover then asks the question at the center of the campaign: “Does your dog need a Mintervention?” Minties FreshBites is the answer, of course.
Both spots were directed by Evan Silver of Reform School and edited by Tina Mintus out of Northern Lights in New York City. (Silver is an alum of SHOOT’s 2007 New Directors Showcase.)
“It starts with a real, relatable problem,” said Mike Rovner, TiNY partner and chief creative officer. “That’s the TiNY way--we help clients build worlds they can live in. Once you set up the rules of the world, you can have... Read More
