Saatchi & Saatchi’s Argentinian office has promoted local Andes beer in the past by spoofing Edward Scissorhands and casting a “miraculous” hen that lays barley wine instead of eggs.
In its latest campaign for the client, Del Campo takes a more Droga5-esque approach with an ad about ads…and super hot dudes.
The idea here is that the incredibly attractive men in question (none of whom seem to work in advertising) will take one night off their busy nightlife schedules in order to make a beer ad…and give the world’s average-looking guys a fairer chance at romance via their absence on the dance floor.
In case you missed it, the press release reiterates:
“It was actually a fake casting whose objective was to take all good-looking men out of the competition for one night, so that average guys could finally be the centre of female attention.”
We have no way of knowing whether the project really happened the way this spot claims it did (color us skeptical), but we CAN say that such a stunt would never really work in “the real world.”
Also love the European spelling.
