McDonald’s plays off of sneaker culture to hype up its latest offering with Big Mac x Bacon Limited Edition Collaboration

The Big Mac turns 50 this year and to celebrate the iconic burger in an interesting and relevant way, this campaign drops the burger right in the centre of hip-hop and streetwear culture in a bold and irreverent way.

Alexander Wang x Adidas, Supreme x Louis Vuitton, Fenty x Puma, Big Mac® x Bacon. To kick-off the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the iconic Big Mac, McDonald’s Canada is releasing the Big Mac x Bacon: Limited Edition Collaboration.

The collab launched with a weeklong teaser campaign across the country, filled with cryptic black and white imagery and design that played off fashion and sneaker culture, hinting at a mysterious upcoming collaboration: “BM x B.” A teaser TV spot aired during the Grammy’s to hype up the new mystery collab. “It’s the combination of two greats. Two powerhouses,” a mysterious voice said.


On January 30th, it was revealed that this next great release is actually the collaboration of Big Mac and Bacon. A series of cheeky black and white films across television, online, and outdoor, feature high fashion types analyzing and explaining this new collab’s importance to culture.


“We really wanted to showcase the Big Mac in a modern and relevant way by integrating it into pop culture, while at the same time not taking ourselves too seriously,” says Antoinette Benoit, Chief Marketing Officer, McDonald’s Canada. “We took inspiration from how a fashion company might launch an exclusive collection by revealing the promotion as a limited-edition collaboration, through a series of billboards and ads until we finally revealed the Big Mac, treating it like the cultural icon it is.”


“Over the course of its 50-year history, the Big Mac has become a culinary icon and the recipe has remained unchanged since its introduction. That’s pretty remarkable,” says Jeff Anderson, McDonald’s Canada Chef. “The addition of another Canadian classic—bacon—to the sandwich for a limited-time symbolizes the modern McDonald’s journey, with innovative menu items alongside much-loved classics. "

“The Big Mac x Bacon was designed to feel contemporary in outlook,” says Peter Ignazi, Global Chief Creative Officer, Cossette. “The look and feel were a departure from traditional McDonald’s campaigns to support the weeklong teaser period and misdirect fans into thinking the collaboration was between two fashion or cultural icons. We created a complete design system that included a custom bacon logo and an edgy modern typeface."

JCDecaux gets too personal with Marketing Directors

Closing business presentations with leading marketing directors is always a struggle. They are always very busy. JCDecaux found the perfect way to tackle that.

Instead of just mailing an invitation for their presentation about ‘The effectiveness of outdoor’, JCDecaux and BBDO Belgium came up with “Personal Billboards” to prove the effectiveness of the medium.

For every director they wanted to contact, they made a billboard with his a photo without asking for permission. Each billboard only had their name and a contact address of JCDecaux.

jcdecaux-gets-too-personal-with-marketing-directors


Then they waited for a reaction, so the marketing directors could tell for themselves how effective outdoor still is. They reacted exactly how JCDecaux wanted: confused, shocked and a little annoyed that people kept contacting them to know what the purpose was.

JCDecaux responded with an e-mail apologizing for any inconvenience: “We just wanted you to experience the effectiveness of outdoor advertising, As you said it yourself, you got so many reactions from only one single billboard. Just imagine what our entire network could do for your brand.”

After, they could to sign up for the presentation… And why wouldn’t they free up some of their time now? After all, it’s hard to disagree with yourself, right?

So every single one of them booked a presentation, and JCDecaux reached a response of 100%. Talk about effectiveness.

Carlsberg's poster is probably the best poster in the world

Carlsberg reintroduced its iconic strapline in the UK with a first of its kind OOH campaign.
A poster who works as a beer tap!

It's easy to say that a poster that gives free beer is #ProbablyTheBest poster in the world.

Carlsberg - Probably the best poster in the world


The poster was located at The Truman Brewery in London’s Brick Lane and offered to people over 18 free beer for one day. The stunt is part of the new £12m TV campaign which is based around the theme “If Carlsberg did...”

Carlsber's “Probably the best...” slogan was revived in 2015 after four years (they had dropped it in 2011 after nearly four decades).

Samsung Galaxy S4: The Smart Phone Line

Samsung users are too smart to wait in line outside of a store for a smartphone. So, in New Zealand, Samsung created an online waiting line for the launch for the new Samsung Galaxy S4. For 12 days, people could get in the virtual line and as they shared and posted features from the S4 they moved forward in the line. A huge outdοor Led-screen visualised the line.

This is the first billboard that captures air humidity and turn it into potable water. A project by UTEC (The University of Engineering and Technology in Lima, Peru) and DraftFCB made to get student interested in their engineering program. Instead of running an advertising campaign though, they helped Lima, the second largest capital in the world set on a desert, solve the huge problem of lacking potable water.

Absolut Vodka: Absolut Purity


Since December 14th ABSOLUT Vodka has taken over one of Avenue de l’Opéra’s bus shelters in Paris, giving Parisians the chance to appreciate a poster of extreme purity. This unique poster, created from just one sheet of blank paper by artist Simon Schubert, embodies purity to the extreme. Portraying the limited edition multi-sided bottle released at the end of the year, this creation was made without ink or chlorine, on 100 % cellulose paper, and formed only from folds revealed by a play on light and shadows.

The Volkswagen Beetle: Juiced Up

The new VW Beetle's outdoor campaign in Toronto and Vancouver offers an enhanced experience, using augmented reality. The AR animations can be seen on gigantic billboards in Toronto’s Dundas Square, as well as on transit shelters throughout Vancouver and Toronto. The animations themselves show the Beetle launching itself through billboards, jumping off of a massive ramp that appears to emerge from the side of a building, and smashing through transit shelters after racing through a long tunnel that appears to be built behind the shelter itself. All the animations serve to demonstrate that this is a much more aggressive, performance-oriented Beetle than any of its predecessors.

Triodos Bank takes over Times Square's Nasdaq and Reuters ticker tapes

The guys at Dawn made a really nice ticker tape takeover in Time's Square to communicate to a hard-to-reach target group, that they don't have to choose between profit and planet. They can have both with Triodos Bank, one of the world's most sustainable banks. The takeover by Triodos Bank makes one thing absolutely clear; it’s time we find new ways to measure our prosperity and well-being, rather than just looking at profit and loss in the stock market.

Contagion: Bacteria Billboard

A live bacteria growing billboard was used to promote the latest Steven Soderbergh's film "Contagion".
Warner Bros. Pictures Canada hired microbiologists and immunologists from around the world to create a one-of-a-kind bacteria message board located at 409 Queen Street West in an abandoned store-front window. On August 28th, two large Petri dishes were inoculated with live bacteria including penicillin, mold and pigmented bacteria and almost overnight have revealed the true Contagion -- an artistic interpretation of the spread of a virus as depicted in the film.

The public was invited to witness first-hand the remarkable growing power of natural bacteria on Wednesday August 31st from 11:00 AM -- 2:00 PM. The first 50 people who arrived received passes to see "Contagion" in theatres and other themed prizes.

This is a truly remarkable idea for Tesco (actually “Homeplus since their re-branding) in South Korea.

The campaign just won Grand Prix in Media, and Gold Lions for Direct and Outdoor.

McDonald's: Pick n' Play interactive billboard

DDB Stockholm created a nice interactive billboard where pedestrian could use their smartphones as controllers to interact with the billboard and play a game. If they could last for 30 seconds they won a McDonalds's treat of their choice. They received a digital coupon on their mobile and they could use it in a nearby McDonald's store.

It's funny, interactive, engaging and brings traffic to the store. Good job DDB.

ASSS: Bring The Billboard To Life

sdfsfsd


Want a career in Public Health? Maybe the people who interacted with this great installation are already thinking of it.

A common poster in a bus shelter combined with an interactive mechanism with pressure sensors gave people the chance to bring somebody back to life by placing their hands on him. When someone did, the flat line on the electrocardiogram monitor start moving thus giving you the sense of saving a life.
