Leo Burnett’s Always ad “Like a Girl” took home the 2015 Emmy for outstanding commercial Saturday night at the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences’ annual Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony at the Microsoft Theater in L.A.
The ad, directed by Lauren Greenfield and produced out of Chelsea Pictures, beat Gatorade’s Derek Jeter tribute “Made in New York,” via TBWA/Chiat/Day L.A.;Adobe‘s ad marking Photoshop’s 25th anniversary ,”Dream On,” from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners; as well as a number of ads created for the Super Bowl: Nissan’s “With Dad,” also from TBWA/Chiat/Day L.A.; Budweiser’s “Lost Dog,” via Anomaly, and Snickers’ “You’re Not You” spot “Brady Bunch,” from BBDO New York.

The like a girl ad is absolutely fantastic.
