The mom from the Emmy-nominated Christmas Tree, The Phone Call and Make Mom Proud is back for Mother's Day. "You talk to your mother like that on Mother's Day?" is my favorite line (I'm sure I heard that one growing up). Mother's Day is written by John Roberts and Clay Weiner, starring John Roberts and directed by Clay Weiner (repped by Biscuit). Watch it here with full credits or on YouTube.

Dan Bergeron (aka fauxreel) has been very busy this past month plastering Canada with 324 seven-foot-tall Vespa Squareheads wheatpastes to promote the new Vespa S. Pictures from Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver are posted here (along with a pic of Dan's tired hands). Agency is Dentsu Canada. Full credits. If you have some time, check out the "projections" on fauxreel.ca. I promise, you will not be disappointed.

The Vigorsol squirrel is back and this time frosty flatulents freeze the melting polar icecaps (if only it were true). Global Freezing is directed by Mateus de Paula Santos, animated by Lobo and produced by The Ebeling Group. The previous Vigorsol spot was The Legend. Scooped from Feed.

LA-based Blip Boutique was kind enough to put me on the guest list to see Robyn on Monday night (thank you blip), and today they sent me over a series of what they call "blips" (short-format visual works) for Robyn. Watch the Robyn blips here. I love the parrot's performance (dumb dance) in Konichiwa Bitches. Full credits.

Here's the latest for Surfrider Foundation via Saatchi & Saatchi LA. To put beach pollution into perspective, trash was collected from various beaches, packaged it to look like seafood and displayed it at local farmers' markets. View three executions here. Scooped from Ads of the World. Full credits.

I love this action-packed twist on BBC's Antiques Roadshow. I secretly love these shows - I actually have a crush on Alistair Appleton (oh, and I see on his blog he likes Herzog. Crush has just intensified). Back to BBC HD Cinematic. It's directed by Jeff Labbe (Sonny, London) with visual effects by MPC, London. Agency is Fallon London. Scooped from Boards.

Cheil Worldwide Canada (Toronto) has just launched an extensive "Express Yourself" campaign for Samsung Canada. First off, I love mobile phones. I have to get a new one every year and often judge (I admit it) people by their mobile phones. So I like that Cheil has gone with this campaign to encourage people to get a phone that suits their needs and personality. View the multiple executions of the print (magazines, bus shelters, billboards) campaign here. See some Toronto subway cars with the ads here. Full print credits are here.
