BBDO Induces Mass Gyrations for Mountain Dew Kickstart

By Kiran Aditham 


BBDO has unveiled the next installment of its ongoing campaign for Mountain Dew’s energy drink line, Kickstart.

Here, the three lads we first met earlier this year during the Super Bowl take their odd dance party and cans of Kickstart out of the basement and onto the streets, where their spastic movements prove to be rather contagious for everyone in the “Neighborhood.”

From robe-sporting weirdos and a raccoon to a fireman and a rather nimble “suit,” the members of our dancing fools’ neighborhood seem just as as odd as their own moves.

While the ad does drag on a bit, viewers can click through random hotspots on the video itself to check out :15 mini-ads that are focused on specific characters in the ‘hood.

Now that we’ve seen the trio busting a move, we’ll just have to wait for the inevitable crossover ad with Oklahoma City Thunder star and fellow Kickstart pitchman Russell Westbrook.
