Description
British kitchen appliance manufacturer Kenwood has unveiled a new social-first global campaign to launch its new compact Go Collection. The push was developed in partnership with M&C Saatchi UK.
Although many young people have a growing passion for food, they often have limited space in the kitchen as they’re living in flatshares or small rentals. This inspired Kenwood to create the new compact Go Collection: three products that have been designed to give cooks more space for creativity in the kitchen.
To drive awareness and sales of the new range amongst a Gen Z audience, M&C Saatchi has partnered with Kenwood to create a campaign which reveals a series of fortuitous events, showing how the compact Go Collection can turn a small ingredient into a “make it big” success story.
In two fast-paced 30-second films, directed by Giacomo Boeri and produced by Utopia, two different starting points, The Flour and The Egg, kick off a series of hyperbolic disasters and radically happy endings. Shot in Milan, the spots feature a real chihuahua, a statue that took four weeks to carve and a bespoke dress that looks like a meringue. Stylised visuals are balanced by a straightforward, matter-of-fact voiceover, provided by stand-up comedian, writer and actor Sunil Patel in the UK version of the campaign.
The launch films are supported through the funnel by a full suite of social-first product assets.
This professional campaign titled 'Go Collection' was published in Australia and United Kingdom in September, 2024. It was created for the brand: Kenwood, by ad agency: M&C Saatchi. This Digital and Film media campaign is related to the Food, House, Garden, and Household Products industries and contains 2 media assets. It was submitted 23 days ago by Owner: Julia Conroy of Julia Conroy Limited.
