LBB’s Josh Neufeldt reviews the north’s most appreciated articles of the past year

In 2022, Canadian advertising absolutely slapped. On LBB, there were countless cool campaigns, insightful interviews with the best brains from across the country, and neat studies into the lives that we, as residents of the north, lead on a day to day basis. It’s work that makes the country proud, and, on a personal note, makes me proud to be Canadian. It also seems like LBB’s readers felt the same way. Across the board, Canadian content pulled in some great viewership this year, which seems a positive omen for the start of 2023. 

But before we dash off into the holidays and the new year of advertising, it’s nice to stop for a moment and savour the highlights of the past 12 months. For your viewing pleasure, we at LBB compiled a list of Canada’s most viewed work in 2022. Including everything from an interview with a concept artist for Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of ‘Dune’, to a campaign in which Jeep turned their vehicles grilles into scannable barcodes, there’s something for everyone to love, and we hope you’ll enjoy this compilation of great content from the great white north as much as we do.



Dive Into Dune with this Beautiful Concept Art


There’s no doubt that Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of ‘Dune’ was one of the most acclaimed films of 2021. Naturally, it stands to reason that behind the film, there were some equally incredible artists. One such example is Rodeo FX’s Deak Ferrand, who, earlier this year, sat down for a chat about concept art with LBB’s Adam Bennett.

Heinz Asks AI to 'Draw Ketchup'
