RE: "CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE" for Extra Gum - InItToWinIt - 06-16-2016
The Advertising Critic: Extra Gum: The Story of Sarah & Juan
Quote:If you have not seen this ad by now, you probably live in the middle of nowhere with no connection to the rest of the world. Wrigley's Extra Gum commercial, part of their Give Extra, Get Extra campaign, by Energy BBDO, "The Story of Sarah & Juan" took the internet by storm back in October of 2015 with it's captivating love story and the heart-wrenching cover of Elvis's "Can't Help Falling in Love" sung by Haley Reinhart. Now, with over 19 million views on youtube, over 70 million views on Facebook, over 1 million Facebook shares, the song reaching over 20 million plays on Spotify, and a spot on the AC Billboard 100, it is clear that Wrigley and Energy BBDO have concocted one of the most popular ads of the past decade.
....
Honestly, the song is what makes this commercial so moving and captivating.
P.S. You can listen to Haley Reinhart's new album Better featuring "Can't Help Falling in Love" on iTunes/Spotify and catch her on tour this summer!

ADWEEK: How Energy BBDO Made the World Cry (and Might Win Over Cannes) With 'Sarah & Juan' Creative chief Andrés Ordóñez reflects on Extra Gum's viral hit By David Griner
Quote:CANNES, France—From its first draft to its final cut, "The Story of Sarah & Juan" has been a tear-jerker, and soon the ad's creators might be weeping tears of joy.
The Extra Gum ad, a 2015 viral juggernaut with 19 million views on YouTube, is a front-runner in several categories at this week's Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.
In addition to likely being honored in categories like Film and Film Craft, the ad stands a strong chance at winning audio honors for its Haley Reinhart cover of the Elvis Presley classic "Can't Help Falling in Love."
We sat down with Energy BBDO chief creative officer Andrés Ordóñez to learn more about how the ad was made and why it's likely to be a Cannes favorite. Check out the video above.

Oh yeah Haley is a contender for Recognition for her efforts on CHFIL

Enjoyed hearing Andrés speak. Thanks for the link.
Winning at Cannes would be a much bigger deal than taking home the Women in Synch Award.

imo, Haley's spot ought to win hands down. Not just because it's a beautifully executed ad. It's a much more difficult marketing proposition to sell gum than charities, the NFL and computers.

There are some very moving ads that I watched, Europe has different taste than we do in the US. It is really cool the ad is in the awards categories that it is in, it is a great ad that is for sure. I really hope that the Sarah and Juan sound track wins!! *fingers crossed*

"The Story of Sarah and Juan," the viral hit commercial from Extra Gum, might take home the big prize at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, thanks to great creative by Energy BBDO, and a little help from Haley Reinhart and the ole Sync team!
On a related note:
There is a BBDO agency in Brazil that ran into some trouble. They won a Bronze Lion for an outdoor ad (billboard) for Bayer aspirin. Some people felt the ad was sexist. Bayer responded by saying they had approved the ad, but that arm of BBDO had paid for it to run.
Essentially what happened is BBDO created the ad to win creative awards. To qualify, it needed to have actually run. So they paid for the media placement. It's considered a "scam" ad because it wasn't created for a legitimate reason during the normal course of business.
BBDO has responded by apologizing and pulling all the ads submitted by that arm of their agency network from the competition.
That black eye could possibly taint the judging of S&J.
RE: "CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE" for Extra Gum - john - 06-24-2016
Boy, I hope that scam doesn't mess things up for Haley's commercial.
BTW, the listings on the Cannes Lions site are somewhat different than the list above and the Extra Gum commercial is listed in the "C06 (Cross Channel Brand Experience)" category.
