It was announced today that The Horizons Project has been shortlisted at the 59th Cannes Lions in the newly created Branded Content & Entertainment “division.” OgilvyEntertainment created the ongoing effort for DuPont. The campaign centers on a long-form, thought-provoking TV series called Horizons. The program and its accompanying website were developed independently by BBC World News and sponsored by DuPont. To support Horizons, Ogilvy commissioned broadcast television company TwoFour to produce a series of 2-minute documentary-style commercial films showcasing DuPont stories of collaboration, and staged a series of debates on important global issues. All elements came together to answer three crucial questions: As our world’s population continues to grow, how will we feed every mouth? How will we decrease our dependency on fossil fuels? How will we protect people and the environment?’

It’s not often we come across people who find ingenious ways to follow their dreams. Tristan Shone is one such individual. Tristan creates music out of what others might see as industrial parts. He crafts his instruments by hand and hooks them up to his computer, transforming into a one-man band… all on his Lenovo laptop. OgilvyEntertainment is proud to bring you Tristan’s story.

After our first completed calendar year of the Horizons Project, OgilvyEntertainment is proud to announce winning the Gold Stevie Award for the mini-documentary series “Stories of Inclusive Innovation”, one of four pillars in the Horizons Project campaign for DuPont started in May of 2011.
