A few highlights: Papa John's serves up a fresh 30-second cut of an ad in which its diverse employees—as opposed to its controversial, now-departed founder and CEO John Schnatter—talk up the pizza chain. (Jessica Wohl gave the backstory on the campaign and shared a 60-second web version last week: "Papa John's ad puts real employees to work repairing its brand"). Levi's also offers a diversity-themed commercial that encourages viewers to head to the polls in November (Adrianne Pasquarelli has the backstory: "Levi's promotes the vote in new campaign"). And FedEx presents a 45-second cinematic period piece that dives into the history behind a treasured family photo (one that, in present day, gets shipped by FedEx).
