Stella Artois has hired an accomplished player to be part of its television spot. And the award-winning Actor, DJ, and Producer Idris Elba, has not only signed on to be in it, but he’s also its creative director.
The ad is part of the premium brand’s summer campaign, called Summer Like You’re On Vacation, where “Stella encourages consumers to rethink their summer surroundings with taglines like…
Why not think about Philadelphia as Vista Del-Phia? New York as the Isla de Manhattan? Chicago as the Chi-Town Riviera? Stella is inspiring consumers to rethink “home” with a vacation mindset.
Set in New York City and creative directed by Elba along with award-winning Director Henry Scholfield, the TV spot also behind Dua Lipa’s music video New Rules.
The commercial tells the story of how one man’s ordinary summer is another man’s extraordinary vacation through a series of scenarios that make home the place you want to write home about. It also features a never before streamed track produced by Idris himself.
And in it Idris (who’s also does resident DJ duties at raves in Ibiza) makes a convincing argument that rethinking how you see wherever you are “can give summer some added oomph.”
The ad, created by VaynerMedia, will be broadcast nationally in 15-second and 30-second spots throughout the summer. And social platforms that appeal to the brand’s key consumer passion points of food, entertainment and lifestyle will be fed it as well.
Marketing Dive explains Stella Artois summer campaign as attempting to refresh its image in ways that make the brand more “relatable.” The brand is tackling the idea of “usual,” this summer by positioning Stella Artois as a way to turn the ordinary into something special.
Using the #SummerLikeVacation hashtag, Stella Artois will be hitting summer beer drinkers on social with a series of humorous “vacation” scenarios that aren’t always what they seem.
