Inspired by the amount of time people were spending with their pets while working from home, and now for some a start to return to the office, this DoorDash spot takes us on a journey of missing our furry friends. The experiences powered by DashPass featured in the creative highlight how a dog owner and his pup stay connected through multiple same-day deliveries on DoorDash thanks to DashPass’ $0 delivery fees. In the ad, we first see the dog receiving a doggy-door delivery of fast-food-themed dog toys. Then, peanut butter. And lastly, the dog is surprised as its owner returns home with a pick-up order of Busch Dog Brew, as well as a six-pack of beer for himself.
Busch Beer’s Busch Dog Brew is an alcohol-free all-natural broth that serves as the company’s first beverage intended for animals. To celebrate the DashPass Pup campaign, DashPass members can exclusively get BOGO Dog Brew starting on 9/13 for a limited time from 13 DashMart locations across the nation (Phoenix, Chicago, Dallas, Minneapolis, Denver, Baltimore, East Bay, San Diego, Sacramento, Columbus, Philadelphia, Nashville, and Seattle). This is the first time Busch Dog Brew will be available direct to consumers for same-day delivery, exclusively for DashPass members.
Directed by Luis Cerevo of Partizan for The Martin Agency, this spot is part of “DashPass Pup,” the first-ever dedicated DashPass creative campaign promoting DashPass membership and the wide range of items you can order through the service, including grocery, convenience, pet and alcohol items.

The Best Work You May Never See: United Sense of America, Directing Duo rubberband. Hunt Down Assault Weapons In “The Fawn”
This PSA titled “The Fawn” is from United Sense of America, a bipartisan coalition whose mission is to turn common sense and common ground into public policy. “The Fawn” was concepted and created by production company SMUGGLER in partnership with New York-based agency American Haiku and Austin-based agency Preacher. Written by American Haiku ECD Thom Glover and directed by the SMUGGLER duo rubberband., the film was designed as a common sense rallying cry aimed at the hunting community, questioning the need for assault weapons--in hunting and beyond that in our society generally. In light of the recent tragic high school shooting in Georgia, this message takes on a poignant urgency and underscores the need to craft progressive reform policy. The film, painful and seemingly unavoidable, forces the viewer to imagine someone else’s finger on the trigger and something else as its target. A voiceover initially seems to be talking about a fawn who is in plain view. But instead the VO turns out to be referring to the weapon which will claim the animal’s life. While the scene itself is graphic, the messaging is matter of fact. United Sense of America contends there simply is no defensible reason or excuse for assault weapons being necessary for sports hunting--and certainly not in mainstream society which includes our children’s schools. Glover said, “Every line in the film came from online discussions and conversations. Hunters are no different from the rest of us; the way people buy assault weapons is the same as the way they buy a refrigerator. We have to find a way to challenge this situation that doesn’t paint all gun owners as monsters, because they’re not.” [video width="1920" height="1080"... Read More
