McCann New York launched a campaign for the New York Lottery which includes this music video-style spot directed by Christian Breslauer of London Alley.
The :30 features a signature song, “Sounds Grande,” as we see our featured music video protagonist get into the lotto spirit thanks to the new GRANDE Scratch-Off Games (up to $3 million in cash prizes, and a chance drawing for one of 100 VIP trips to Billboard Latin Music Week in Miami).
The new lotto games were designed by McCann Design, inspired by the colorful storefronts of New York bodegas.

Isn’t it nice to know that some things are still real?
In a world increasingly crafting fakes, replicas, and perfectly rendered simulations, there are fewer and fewer places that still celebrate authenticity.
On a day dedicated to lighthearted hoaxes and twists of fate, it seemed a perfect time to release a film that explores what’s real, and not.
That tension sits at the center of “L’ultimo Uomo Reale” (“The Last Real Man”), a new film from Team One and director Sebastian Strasser, in partnership with the marketplace for authenticated luxury resale, The RealReal.
Conceived as a response to The RealReal’s 2024/25 “Ask Yourself What’s Real” campaign theme, the film pushes that question further, by exploring the growing tension between perception and reality in today’s digital world.
At a moment when much of the industry is using AI to scale content, this work flips the lens—using it as both subject and storytelling device. A humorous, slightly unsettling take for anyone who still values the real thing.

Because what carries value now isn’t just craft. It’s credibility.”
