GoldDigital - Online Film Campaign – 30 Seconds and Under

SilverDesign - Promotion

SilverIntegrated Campaign

It began with a teaser campaign that hinted at a great artistic collaboration. Was it a new album? Haute couture fashion? Fancy French perfume? Black-and-white films featured pretentious trendsetters like bearded hipsters, turtleneck-wearing designers and an art critic channeling the legendary style of Anna Wintour. In the end, the campaign revealed a collaboration that was far more accessible – a Big Mac and bacon. The new menu item was still hailed as beautiful high art, but those characters’ breathless praise gave way to satire as audiences were let in on the joke.
