The Super Bowl has two teams aspiring to pro football’s summit. Fittingly during the Big Game another expedition to the top takes center stage–the ascent being up the iconic Paramount Mountain to introduce ViacomCBS’ Paramount+ streaming service.
The “Journey to the Peak” campaign from Droga5 New York consists of multiple spots chronicling the sojourn, including this one, “Sweet Victory,” showing myriad celebs reaching the highest point–turns out they’ve all congregated and will soon be found by audiences on Paramount+.
The celebs are all ViacomCBS stars ranging from actors to athletes, news anchors to reality hosts, cartoons, puppets and Snooki–all scaling the legendary Paramount logo.
Directed by O Positive’s David Shane, the journey unfolded over six films, each one exploring a different side of the mountain with a different collection of properties. Some of the spots started rolling out during the AFC Championship and now the ViacomCBS stars will reach the peak during Super Bowl Sunday.
When the summit is reached in “Sweet Victory,” the celebs find Sir Patrick Stewart and Stephen Colbert.

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.
