Hasta La Creative!

In Mucinex’s latest “Let’s End This” creative by McCann New York, Mr. Mucus is back and trying to trick people into believing that regular cold medicine is a good as Mucinex, which lasts 12. The idea started with a fact: 70% of people want long lasting relief, but they stick with products that only relieve for 4 hours. The latest iteration features him showing up in contextually relevant media with creative design around consumer’s passion points.

On the Weather Channel, Mr. Mucus will show up on the live set to interfere with the anchor. On Twitter, he will show up in costume and recommend against taking Mucinex. One day he’s a mucusy meteorologist, the next he could be an anchorman delivering you “the news.” The campaign compliments the content viewers are about to watch, and plays into the role of Mr. Mucus and his constant goal to discredit Mucinex and its superior relief.

“Mr Mucus Misinforms” will run through February, 2018 the months with the highest cold and flu incidence in the 2017/18 season. It will be delivered across TV, digital and social with augmented reality on the Weather Channel. In addition to national broadcast on The Weather Channel, social will include Twitter and YouTube.

Actiu, leading brand in office furniture design and manufacturing, says goodbye to a crucial year in their history, receiving a multitude of awards and recognitions. A 2017 full of milestones, such as the recognition of European Entrepreneur of the Year in the European Business Awards to its founder Vicente Berbegal; the LEED Platinum Certificate which awards the commitment to sustainability in its facilities; and the recent National Design Award 2017.

A year to remember where Actiu wanted to say goodbye with a communications campaign intended as a tribute to the main ingredient to its success: the people. Be it clients, collaborators, followers, colleagues, family or friends. So, Actiu dedicates this campaign to them and it does do so by literally taking its hat off to them, an iconic element in its visual identity.
