BBH New York launched a new campaign for Sony PlayStation, the brand’s promotion featuring discounted games and systems, running from June 9-17.
Set to the Steve McCarthy-penned “It’s A Sunshine Day” song from The Brady Bunch, the spot opens an idyllic suburban neighborhood on a perfect summer day. Except the pool is empty, there’s no one on the tennis courts, even the ice cream truck is abandoned. You probably know where this is headed.
A man walks into one of the houses to find seemingly the whole neighborhood gathered around watching two opponents square off in MLB: The Show 17, one of the games featured in the promotion, ending by highlighting that the limited-edition gold PS4 shown is $249.99 as part of the offering.
The 30-second spot made its debut yesterday and comes on the heels of the brand selecting AKQA D.C. as its new digital agency, following a review. It’s unclear if the assignment will impact the scope of BBH’s relationship relationship with PlayStation.
