Dairy Queen

Guilt Trip, Working This Whole Summer, Always Gone

Agency: BarkleyOKRP

Description

42% of parents didn’t take a single day off in the past year. To combat this disturbing statistic, Dairy Queen and creative agency Barkley are challenging parents to get OOO for their kids by taking a summer skip day.
Beginning on June 21st to coincide the longest day of the year, the #SummerSkipDay campaign implores parents to play hooky from work and spend the day with their kids. DQ uses a children’s choir, The Summer Skip Day Singers, to deliver a guilt trip that no parent can ignore. The choir performs classic songs we know by heart, but with new lyrics that have a brutally honest bite, in summer locations like a lake, a baseball field and a park to show parents where they should be with their kids instead of at the office
Songs include Guilt Trip set to the tune of Ode to Joy and Working This Whole Summer set to the tune of I've Been Working on the Railroad with lyrics like, “You don't have to write that email, forget those status reports. Wouldn't you feel better at the pool in some shorts?”

This professional campaign titled 'Guilt Trip, Working This Whole Summer, Always Gone' was published in United States in June, 2018. It was created for the brand: Dairy Queen, by ad agency: BarkleyOKRP. This Film medium campaign is related to the Food industry and contains 3 media assets. It was submitted almost 6 years ago.
