VML, Kyle Schwarber Raise ‘The W’ for Gatorade

VML launched a digital campaign for Gatorade starring Chicago Cubs leftfielder Kyle Schwarber as part of the brand’s broader “#WinFromWithin” initiative.

“The W” celebrates the kind of hard work and determination it takes to win a championship, riffing off the “W” flags flying in Chicago following the Cubs first World Series victory since 1908. It opens by pointing out that “the Cubbies have been back at work since the parade ended” in preparation for defending the title.

“You see that ‘W’ flying?” the voiceover asks, “It doesn’t stand for weekend” and Schwarber, who missed the majority of last season due to an injury, isn’t about to take a day off.

It’s familiar territory for the brand, the latest execution of a brand message dating back to 2012. But it does have the benefit of a new baseball season on the heels of Cubs World Series win behind it.

“The video shows that winning is a reflection of the work you put in when you’re not playing and that you can’t #FlyTheW without putting in the work first,” Gatorade told The Drum in a statement. “Schwarber, who has already persevered in the face of adversity, embodies the idea that sports performance is driven from the inside.”

Sibylla: Hot Dogs with Extra Everything

When fast food-chain Sibylla launched their new Extra Everything Hot Dogs, we were asked to make radio spots to highlight the news. But these weren’t your ordinary hot dogs, so we figured we shouldn’t do ordinary radio spots.

Instead, together with professional musicians, we interpreted the three hot dogs in three full songs in three extra everything-genres.

The songs were then released on Spotify – A soul version with extra wail, a trap remix with extra bass, and a death metal edition with extra growl.

They became the center of a campaign with radio spots on FM-radio and Spotify, and music videos on social media.

But what version you got to see or hear, depended on your taste of music. On Spotify and Social media, the dominate genres on your playlists decided what version you would see/hear, and on FM radio we adapted the spots to the genre the stations focused on.
