The Story:
Marriott Rewards, Marriott International's loyalty program, today launches a new global advertising campaign from Grey New York. Real members tell their real stories, special moments, in their favorite locations showcasing the joy of travel and Marriott Rewards portfolio of 18 hotel brands.

Shot in some of the world's most sought-after destinations from Grand Cayman to Venice, the "You Are Here" campaign uses eye-catching techniques, including cinemagraphs to convey stories that are emotional, meaningful and inspirational to travelers everywhere.

The ads will run on U.S. television, Facebook's new mobile experience, Canvas, and multi-platform sponsorship with CNN in over 126 countries. Marriott Rewards members will be invited to share their own travel moments on their website and on Marriott Traveler, the company's digital travel magazine.
