Cossette Forms the New McDonald's Campaign to Closest Restaurant
References: cossette & designtaxi
The team at ad agency Cossette dreams up a new McDonald's campaign in a style reminiscent of the game Where's Waldo? The playful approach subtly hides the motif of the brand in a messy home backdrop, which reimages a moving day to insinuate that McDonald's would be the perfect meal. The logo is peaking out from the shadows of each of the backdrops or in a reflection of a cooking appliance.
This playful initiative immerses those into the image and reminds customers that no matter where they are, there is a McDonald's location close by as there are over 300 restaurants scattered across Quebec, where the ad is taking place. François-Julien Rainville, associate creative director at Cossette explains “Come moving time, you’re always looking for something. You look for boxes, you look for parking, you look for what you’re going to eat. But the one thing you don’t have to look for is a McDonald’s."
