Overview

Description

The advert serves as a provocation to the established order of doing things. It’s a powerful exhortation to reject a success at all costs mentality and enrich the lives at others; a notion which lies at the heart of the Chivas brand. The advert also celebrates those who embody our values – social entrepreneurs –pioneers who embody a generous business philosophy that builds a strong bottom line as well as tackling some of the world’s most pressing social issues. The advert ends by directing the viewer to engage further and submit their own ideas for companies – for the chance of funding and mentoring from Chivas and a panel of experts.

The advert uses innovative editing techniques to cut between the provocateurs and footage of the social entrepreneurs at work. Key points are underscored via simple but bold interstitial frames of text. The base footage has been edited into more than twenty different adverts of different time lengths.

Execution

Super: Chivas presents

Chiwetel Money.

What is it good for?

If not for doing good.

Some people only understood

Making it for themselves

And those they know

But they've had their go...

Super If not now

Then when?

Now this is we.

Being the change

The world wants to see.

Chiwetel This is chivalry

Living not as 'them and us' but 'we'

Chiwetel You see the world is changing.

Then who?

Don’t avoid their eyes

Make them your brothers.

Realise their dreams

And feel the joy of what they achieved

Give and receive

Make your potential their potential.

Make character an essential.

Dare enough

To let your actions say

This time?

We win the right way
