📣Your Attention Please📣 MJ Delaney’s brilliantly attention-grabbing, boob awareness spot launched at the Super Bowl last night. Starring Hailee Steinfeld and cancer survivor Wanda Sykes, cleverly urging the importance of regular breast checks to stay ahead of cancer. Directed by MJ and produced by Moxie US, this impactful call to action marks a powerful return to her roots and follows up hot on the heels of M&S Christmas food.

This week, along with our friends at Creative Outpost, we welcomed the winners of a competition organised by House 337 as part of the IPA’s Advertising Unlocked initiative. At Merman, we strive to nurture young talent so we’re proud to be a part of this incredible initiative. They had the chance to explore how we bring stories to life, from concept to final product and what opportunities are available in the world of production. A huge congratulations to the winners! We look forward to seeing where their talent takes them next. A big thanks to Nicola Weekly from La Retraite Roman Catholic Girls' School and Kainan Belfatmi, alongside Kimoy Mais, Victoria Fischer, and Nici Robson from House 337 for making this opportunity possible.

To mark the 50th anniversary of Women’s Aid, we’re proud to share a very special project that Merman has made in partnership with LadBible. The aim was to tell a story, targeted at young people that examines how small controlling actions can escalate into full-blown abuse, and how we all have a role to play in identifying the red flags. The project was written by Bad Sisters writer Ailbhe Keogan, with Sharon Horgan and Dearbhla Walsh overseeing as executive creatives. Director Rachel Stubbings (from the duo BARBARA) superbly harnessed the nuanced subject matter in an impactful, warm and emotive way. Click the link below to watch the full film or head over to LadBible’s platform to get a wider sense of the integrated campaign. Most importantly, for the women who see themselves reflected in Liv’s story, and for the onlookers seeking the courage to speak up about a loved one, this film is dedicated to you. https://lnkd.in/eA_MUxmr
