ASOS launched its first Christmas campaign, ASOS Hotline. Ziwe and Farron Clark answer style and gifting calls, Law Roach styled the looks. A retro phone line for gift panic. Smart or nostalgia? 📞

Morrisons' Christmas ad is Goldilocks meeting the bear family. She's Baby Bear's new girlfriend, and Daddy Bear picks a salmon at Market Street. 90 seconds, animatronic bears, Leo UK.

Swap the person. Keep the photo.

A new open adapter for the Qwen image model swaps each person whole and keeps the pose, framing, background and light. One character sheet per person; two people in one pass.

Netflix's new campaign with Mother London has three hero films. An axolotl keeps a Bridgerton marathon alive with his feet. An astronaut wakes his crewmate to talk about K-pop Demon Hunters. 🎬

Under half the size.

HyperFlow H3 Flash by Video Rebirth: an open 14B model that makes video and synced stereo sound in one go. A 5.2 s clip takes 92 s on an RTX 5090, and the 9.1 GB build fits 24 GB cards.

Amazon Quick is now AWS Quick, with a first ad campaign called "Built for the Job". Elevator screens and the Las Vegas Sphere, both. Work-only AI is getting a billboard moment (a big one) 😅

Quince just made its biggest campaign ever (7 years in), and it's David Schwimmer plus a red sweater from Friends season 8. Nostalgia marketing, but make it knitwear. 🧥

Xfinity's new holiday ad has John C. Reilly, as a Christmas ghost, telling you to pause your WiFi with one tap (Holiday Mode). A WiFi company begging you to log off. Kinda bold, honestly 👻

Burlington put Love Island's Kaylor Martin and Amaya Espinal in a holiday party ad, set to a remix of "I Feel Love". Off-price, but the soundtrack is not. 🎄

Plaud AI made a comedy ad series where an entire office loves meetings. Shot in one day in Chicago with improv actors, directed by Lee Einhorn. The note-taker is the straight man here. 😄

The National Lottery's Christmas ad is a reindeer who believes he can fly, helped by a robin friend. VCCP made it, Framestore did the VFX, Claudia Winkleman closes it. Ten weeks of this, ngl. 🦌

Etsy's second Christmas ad, 'Ornaments', runs on Olivia Rodrigo's first-ever holiday song. She co-designed the crackers in the video with an Etsy seller, and they're sold only on Etsy. Pop star merch, but make it cozy 🎄

WWF Norway's new ad stars a stressed Arctic guide rushing tourists past polar bears and whales before oil exploration hits. Shot in Svalbard, timed to Norway's budget talks and COP31. Funny panic over guilt trips, ngl. 🐻‍❄️

Martin Short is Santa's loudest elf in Verizon's holiday ad. Dr. Seuss-style visuals, Megan Stalter, Marsai Martin, and literal "money snow" for cash back. Subtle it's not 🎄

Wendy's launched WendyQuest, a free pixel-art RPG. Beat the Golden Archers, copy a promo code, get real fries or nuggets in the Wendy's app. Built by hand, no AI, they say. Ngl, I'd grind for the Frosty 🍦

Tina Fey and Rachel Dratch just made a 60-second VW Atlas ad, and it airs on SNL this Saturday, November 7. Part of NBCUniversal's NBC100 push. Casting SNL vets on SNL, ngl, smart. 😄

Jaguar's 'Copy Nothing' rebrand skipped the cars in 2024. Now Annie Leibovitz shoots Florence Pugh next to the Type 01 GT. Progress, kinda. Orders open early 2027 🙂
