3D Call of Duty ad lights up London’s Piccadilly Circus

Activision has taken over the largest advertising display in Europe ahead of October 28 launch of new game.

Activision has ramped up its Call of Duty marketing efforts with a 3D billboard ad in London to excite gamers.

The latest advertisement has dropped before the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II full game launch on October 28.

Running on London’s famous Piccadilly Lights, the short spot begins with Soap MacTavish dramatically busting through a glass panel and cutting the power, before the screen eerily transitions to an outdoor view where Ghost pops up from the grass.

Green strobe lights then beam toward viewers as the infamous Call of Duty logo pops up on the screen.

Earlier this month, Call of Duty released a spot featuring Nicki Minaj, Pete Davidson and Lil Baby, with the celebrities reciting I Don’t Know, But I’ve Been Told, the famous call-and-response song sung during US military training exercises.

Actor Dan Levy learns how to craft the perfect margarita in new Cointreau campaign

Want to know the secret behind creating mouthwatering margaritas? Cointreau has tapped Schitt’s Creek star Dan Levy, as well as chefs Nyesha Arrington and Sohla El-Waylly, to explain how. Since Dallas socialite Margarita Sames first created the margarita in 1948, it has become the most popular cocktail in the US, according to Cointreau. The 173-year-old brand has enlisted award-winning actor, writer and director Dan Levy to front its campaign that shows consumers how to make the drink using its orange-flavored liqueur, with the help of celebrity chefs Nyesha Arrington and Sohla El-Waylly. “Cointreau is the key ingredient in my favorite cocktails – an ice-cold margarita and a cosmo on the rocks in a tumbler – so when Cointreau approached me, it was kind of fated,” Levy said in a statement. “Having spent the spring shooting The Big Brunch alongside some of my culinary heroes, I needed to pull up my socks when it came to hospitality – so I chose to start this summer perfecting some co...

Hide The Pain Harold realizes cause of strained face in antacid ad

Hide the Pain Harold (aka András Arató) is using his famous face to front a new ad for Brazilian antacid brand Eno. In ‘Cara de Azia’ (‘Heartburn Face’), viewers see Arató emphasize that he always thought he had a normal face, but when it became a famous meme he desperately tried to change it to no avail. One day, on the set of a modeling shoot as his alias ‘Harold,’ Arató notices one of the technicians is making a face similar to his own due to heartburn. In a lightbulb moment, he realizes that perhaps acid reflux has been the source of his strained face all these years. The campaign was created by Publicis Leon. Creative directors Laura Azevedo and Ricardo Schreier said: “To have one of the biggest memes in the world in our campaign combines work and fun. The ’Cara de Azia’ campaign is not only a relief for Harold, but also for consumers. Talking about heartburn doesn’t have to be boring.” It’s not the first time Hide The Pain Harold has popped up in an ad. Last month, The Drum...
