Agency: Havas, Prague. VIEW THE FIRST AD VIEW THE SECOND AD VIEW THE THIRD AD Hello Hub: Hate Unplugged
According to recent studies (Cambridge, at European Union level) The Czech Republic has been recorded as one of the most racist and nationalistic countries in Europe. Living here, we can say that the people are mostly accepting and nice.
Unfortunately, people arenât quite as nice online. The internet has become a breeding ground for awful, hateful messages, made worse by anonymity. Usually made toward those who are most vulnerable - the refugees. Agency: McCann, Prague VIEW THE CONCEPT McDonald's: Making Of HyperReality Application1224: Mafia
The number of secondary road accidents is rising every year due to the lack of knowledge of the right procedure after a car crash or malfunction. Why? Because the drivers simply haven't been trained how to react properly in these situations. In order to draw attention to such an important topic - besides putting together a safety card with simple steps to follow (like the ones you'd find in an airplane) - McCann Prague came up with a rather cheeky TVC idea for the Czech Insurer's Bureau. The TVC suggests that some rules - like these road rules - should be followed by absolutely everyone, so they don't die stupidly. Even the Mafia respects these rules. Try to forget that.
VIEW THE SPOT Mastercard: Fingerprints Portraits
With the PSD2 revisions under way and the SCA mandates about to go live, biometric authentication is becoming a hot topic in the European society.
But even though Mastercard has finished developing the tools necessary to comply with the new payment industry standard â ID Check being the most important one â the supporting consumer-facing communication frameworks to educate & carry the innovation message are yet to be developed. How can we send a clear and impactful message to consumers about the new biometric safety & security tools while it's still hot news? Agency: McCann, Prague VIEW THE WOMEN AD VIEW THE MAN AD Czech Red Cross: Someone Else
To celebrate its centenary, Czech Red Cross launched this campaign with the message about its most important mission - helping others. Many of us are often just too lazy, too oblivious, too uncertain or too frightened to help, when it's really needed.. But we can't rely on someone else to help instead of us. Because that "Someone Else" doesn't exist. Agency: Comtech

We all have seen the birds and the whales with their stomachs filled with plastic rubbish. And we believe that humans are the next species that'll be affected by the omnipresent plastic and surrogates.

CARE is an international NGO focused on helping people in African countries affected by hunger. They are known worldwide since the WW2, when they were providing CARE packages with help. To bring attention to the most endangered group - children, McCann, Prague, decided to use symbols of childhood well known for everybody despite their nationality or age - toys. Regular toys represent happy childhood, therefore we created something to represent childhood filled with hunger - skinny toys.
VIEW THE TEDDY BEAR AD VIEW THE YELLOW DUCK AD Coca-Cola: Roadtrip
McCann Prague has devised a creative concept for probably the first Instagram campaign with a TV trailer in the Czech Republic. The aim of the campaign is not only to promote the competition for so-called âWOW experiencesâ, but also to make Coca-Cola more attractive for Czech and Slovak teenagers. With this goal in mind, the film centres on a summer road trip taken by Czech Olympic gold medalist Ester Ledecká and Slovak singer Emma Drobná, with selected influencers, as they create content for social networks along their journey. Working with these figures, Coca-Cola is ensuring it stays relevant to young audiences. Naturally there is also strong point of sale promotion. The task of the agency was to introduce this road trip as well as the mechanics of the competition to the target group. So they came up with the âShall we fly?â campaign, which combines that summer carefree feeling with the main prizes on offer in the competition (a balloon flight, parachute jump, etc.) and which takes the form of a TV spot used as a social network trailer.
VIEW THE SPOT ING Bank: Like a Surgeon
ING doesnât like being JUST a bank. They believe in the next generation of banking. A bank that doesnât look or feel like a bank. One that believes in life. In a life well spent, not a life full of spending. One that empowers you to transform your work â your blood and sweat - into the means to achieve the things that you want, and the experiences you wish for. Effortlessly and pain free. Through this campaign via McCann, Prague, we visualize the every day lives, desires and needs of people for a life well spent. We donât show a world where everythingâs perfect, because thatâs just not how life is. Life is full of small, imperfect moments â and more often than not theyâre the times we reflect on fondly, and that drive us to strive for a better quality of life.

In Czech Republic pensioners feel useless and deserted. Technology deepens their disconnection. Young vendors use too much jargon and donât have any patience for elders. Technology can be better explained to seniors⦠by other seniors. McCann, Prague, developed an HR experimental program to reconvert pensioners into Vodafone sales force. The recruitment was based only on 2 criteria: to be over 65 y.o. and know nothing about modern technologies. We redesigned our training program, using less memorization but learning by play. Ageism became a public topic, next to feminism and racism. Czech Senators is supporting the initiative.

Thanks to its brewing process, Peter's Cold Brew is a much blacker (stronger) coffee than any other. To show how black it actually is, McCann, Prague, created probably the blackest campaign in the world. They hired an infamous, local print house and crafted a series of hand-made posters, printing on black paper with blacker ink: Black 2.0 Ink, it absorbs 98.9% of visible light, and takes only one coat to eliminate nearly all light. So they used 5 coats.
They cut the posters 66.6 cm wide and covered the city with them on Friday the 13th. That's how black. VIEW UNICORN OUTDOOR VIEW TINDER OUTDOOR VIEW VOLDEMORT OUTDOOR VIEW FILM NOIR OUTDOOR VIEW KITTENS OUTDOOR Opavia: Detective
Opavia is the number one biscuit brand in the Czech Republic in sales. But the Opavia brand was not much recognized as their packages carried a sub-brand name. Our goal was to show that everyone's favorite biscuits were actually Opavia biscuits by introducing the brand in their packs. During research, we had discovered that people like their cookies so much that they even hide their favorite ones from family members. So we used that insight to brand their communication with the concept: "where do you hide your Opavia?", and created the detective character, who goes around the house finding everyone's Opavia.

VIEW THE SPOT Ceska Pojistovna: Parrot
Young & Rubicam Prague took the unusual step of enlisting the help of an African Grey parrot in its latest campaign for Ceska Pojistovna, the largest insurance company in the Czech marketplace. The African Grey parrot was trained by a specialist with experience coaching animals for Hollywood blockbusters as Bourne Supremacy (2004) and The Illusionist (2006). The parrot, named Carl, was taught to say "Pet Insurance", thereby enabling him to take up his job in sales. After three months of daily practice, he was ready to show off his newly acquired skill all over the country.
VIEW THE SPOT Bornier: Napoleon
A stain. A mustard stain that can be the mark of a proud heritage, traveling through history in the company of famous people who actually enjoyed the product at the time. That was the idea of this posters campaign.We found historical figures known for their epicurean side and associations with dijon mustard, and we suggested the beginning of an indulging tradition every since. Because Bornier is one of the very few big names of original Dijon mustards, with more than 200 years of tradition. But its remarkable heritage was known only among connoisseurs. McCann Prague helped changing that, raising quick awareness thanks to the surprising visuals.Â
VIEW THE NAPOLEON AD VIEW THE HORTENSE AD VIEW THE BEETHOVEN AD Cointreau: Haute Couture
Czech language is not an easy language. And for foreigners, trying to pronounce words with 4 consecutive consonants can be challenging to say the least. The interesting fact is that the reciprocity is also valid Czechs are having trouble to pronounce some of the fancy French names. Words like Louboutin, boeuf bourguignon or chaise lounge are as hard to pronounce by the Czechs as Cointreau is. Hence our idea of turning the hard-to-pronounce challenge of our brand into a sign of a fancier belonging. This campaign from McCann Prague not just teaches our customers how to pronounce Cointreau, but also turns this disadvantage into a benefit, that gives the brand a hallmark of luxury.
