1 – YEO VALLEY ORGANIC – Boyband
In a follow-up to last year's rapping farmers ad, Yeo Valley launched a tv spot during the first ad break of The X Factor live show. The one-off, two-minute music video features a farming-inspired boy band called The Churned, singing a ballad entitled Forever. The ad was shot on location in Blagdon, in the heart of rural Somerset. The launch tied in with a Facebook karaoke competition, where users could sing along to the Yeo Valley track. The winner appeared in a 30-second version of the ad, which ran during the X Factor final on 11 December.

3 – PUMA – Hardchorus
We open on a small group of hardcore soccer fans, also known as hooligans, standing in a classic British pub. Suddenly, one of them starts singing the first words of "Truly, Madly, Deeply" by Savage Garden. Another hooligan joins in, and as the camera pulls out, we see that the whole pub is packed with hooligans. They all sing together with the power of an entire stadium of fans during a soccer game, turning the cheesy love song into something big, beautiful and romantic. After the last chorus, a super appears: "It's match day. It's Valentine's Day. Let your better half know how you feel. Dedicate and send this song at pumahardchorus.com". Followed by Puma's "Love = football" next to the Puma logo.

8 – HONDA – Impossible Dream
A man travels on an incredible journey using some of Honda's landmark products whilst miming to the Andy Williams song 'The Impossible Dream'. His journey comes to an abrupt end when he leaps off a giant waterfall in a Honda Powerboat into the mist below. Surely, this is the end of his dream? However as Andy Williams reaches the crescendo of the song, our hero returns in a Honda Hot Air Balloon to finish off the song in style. Garrison Keillor – the voice of Honda – sums it all up with 'I couldn't have put it better myself'.

9 – COCA-COLA – Choir
Here's Coca-Cola celebrating along with Santo its 125th year, and once again, we are guilty of naivety. We believe that, even today, the world is not far from the world that we dream of. In fact we are so naïve about thinking this way, that we decided to carry out an investigation to evaluate just how justified our reasons to believe in a better world were. We are proud to present to you "Choir", created by Santo for Coca-Cola Latin America and their new communications platform: "REASONS TO BELIEVE IN A BETTER WORLD".

14 – REXONA – Sensitive Armpits
A tough lumberjack is chopping down a tree. As he rearranges his cap, we notice at the same time he does that his underarm begins to song a sweet song. The corny melody is really annoying him. At this point, we see different cliché images of rough and tough men all undergoing the same situation. Finally, one of them applies the New Rexona Men Sensitive and succeeds in shutting up the underarm voice. A male voice in off says: New Rexona Men Sensitive. Even the most insensitive guy can have sensitive underarms.

16 – GOOGLE – Demo Slam: Realtime Karaoke
Google is more than just a search bar. However, most of us don't use, let alone, are aware of its many features. We needed to find a way to share all this free technology with the world. To educate everyone about all of Google's innovations; we decided to change the way people learnt about it. We got precisely the people who didn't use this free tech, to explain to the others why they should. Because, only they would be able to explain it in a way that would be fun to watch, and understood by all. By bringing in just a little bit of courage, creativity and fun; each of them pushed the role of technology in our lives and inspired the rest to use it in ways never imagined before.
Transforming something few were aware of to something the whole world cared about; we were able to re-define the role of technology in everyone's life. From celebrities, scientists, soccer moms, teens to even sports personalities; everyone came forward to find new ways in which technology could make their world a little better.

This 60-second commercial shows a lifetime of moms by their children's sides doing the daily, sometimes mundane, things that help their children grow up to be Olympians. All the while, they sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" from the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical Carousel. The ad builds from a child's birth and culminates with the Olympics and a proud mom seeing all her hard work pay off. We then cut to a card that says, "Thank you, Mom," followed by a series of product brand images that ends on the P&G logo with the voice-over, "P&G. Proud sponsor of Moms."
