Gabriel García Márquez by the Douglas Brothers

Spanish newspaper El Pais selected The Douglas Brothers' portrait of Gabriel Garcia Marquez for the cover of their photo tribute to the celebrated author.

Stuart, along with his brother Andrew, photographed García Márquez on an assignment with Esquire magazine in 1990 in Mexico City. 

Jeep "A Different Drummer"by Stuart Douglas

Stuart's latest film for Jeep picks up where his previous Cannes Lion-shortlisted film for the 4x4 carmaker left off. 

This new spot for the Chinese market, where the film was shot and recently aired, delivers a message in praise of the spirit of individuality in these fast-paced modern times.

The film was shot on location in the region of Shenzhen with Stuart's masterful photography showcasing the city's fast-growing, dramatic urban landscape with small contrasting vignettes helping to illustrate the film's message of marching to one's own drum. It's an intriguing and gorgeous snapshot of where modern China is today.

Doritos "Penalties" by JJ Keith

"Penalties. The nation's achilles heel..."

This summer's festival of football is nearly upon us so it's probably best to talk about England's penalty misery now rather then when the inevitable happens at the World Cup in just under two month's time. 

To spare our blushes, JJ's new one with Doritos sees their now famous mariachi band enlisted to give us a few tips on how to successfully navigate the perfect penalty shoot-out. The magnificent Mexicans use some pretty fancy and utterly convincing (*ahem*) football skills to outfox a group of lads (and, somewhat ominously, England goalkeeper Joe Hart) down the park all in aid of Doritos' competition to win an amazing football holiday of a lifetime. 

We're a big fan of this guy's work. 

Liz Murphy's brilliant Grief Encounter spot has been gathering further acclaim, this time from Campaign magazine's Private View feature. 

After being made Ad of the Day on the magazine's website, two industry figures were invited to pass comment on Liz's charity film in a round-up of the week's best work across all advertising mediums, with both columnists heaping praise on the emotionally-charged film.

Gemma Butler, creative director at MRY, remarked on how successfully the film connects with its audience on an emotional level, with Indy Saha, director of strategy at Google Creative Lab, calling the spot "an awesome ad".
