KitKat is giving a nod to the freezing cold temperatures hitting the UK with a cool new out-of-home advert. The execution empathises with Brits as they faced the coldest night of winter so far, with some areas of the country reaching minus double digits. Inspired by the arduous early morning task of scraping the ice from your car windscreen, the iconic chocolate bar invites people to 鈥楾ake a Brrr鈥 from the cold.
Created by integrated creative agency VML, the work went live across the UK today and will be live for two days 鈥 throughout the cold snap. The creative will also run across KitKat鈥檚 UK social channels.
The execution itself went from ideation to live in just 36hrs, showcasing the power of a great idea and collaborative client partnerships.
Mike Watson, creative director at VML, said, 鈥淲ith an arctic cold snap having us all reach for jumpers, hats, gloves, coats鈥 and yet more jumpers, we wanted to entice people to take a brrr鈥ak with KitKat. An impressively quick turnaround from a brilliant team.鈥
