McCann New York: Mucinex ‘Mr. Mucus Misinforms’

Agency: McCann New York
Client: Mucinex
Date: December 2017
In Mucinex’s latest ‘Let’s End This’ creative by McCann New York, animated germ Mr. Mucus is back and trying to trick people into believing that regular cold medicine is a good as Mucinex, which lasts 12 hours. The idea started with a fact: 70% of people want long-lasting relief, but they stick with products that only relieve for four hours. The latest iteration features him showing up in contextually relevant media with creative design around consumer’s passion points.
On the Weather Channel, Mr. Mucus will show up on the live set to interfere with the anchor. On Twitter, he will show up in costume and recommend against taking Mucinex. One day he’s a mucusy meteorologist, the next he could be an anchorman delivering you “the news”. The campaign compliments the content viewers are about to watch, and plays into the role of Mr. Mucus and his constant goal to discredit Mucinex and its superior relief.
‘Mr. Mucus Misinforms’ will run through February 2018, the months with the highest cold and flu incidence in the 2017/18 season. It will be delivered across TV, digital and social with augmented reality on the Weather Channel. In addition to national broadcast on The Weather Channel, social will include Twitter and YouTube.

Laundry Service: Michelob Ultra ‘We Are Anti-Resolution’

Agency: Laundry Service
Client: Michelob Ultra
Date: December 2017
Michelob Ultra’s ‘Anti-Resolution’ is a part of the brand’s holiday campaign. From the beer brand that celebrates those who live an active, balanced lifestyle, ‘Anti-Resolution’ challenges consumers to rethink their New Year’s Resolutions by showing them that you don’t have to wait until the New Year to live fit and fun.
The new spot stars fitness influencers: Kenny Santucci (@kennysantucci), April Sutton (@suttonstrong), and Brad Kolowich (@bradkolowichjr). The spot pairs footage of each member of the trio writing out a resolution with a photo collage showing how they’ve already fulfilled those resolutions in 2017. At the end, each of them rips up their ‘resolutions’ reminding viewers that they can #LiveULTRA every day.

Agency: Phenomenon
Client: Flywheel
Date: December 2017
Flywheel Sports, a boutique fitness company, partnered with LA-based business transformation agency Phenomenon on an ad campaign titled, ‘F*,’ in tandem with Flywheel’s high-performance at-home-bike and streaming content platform, Fly Anywhere.
The campaign reminds riders to fly beyond the things that are holding them back – be it distractions, shortcuts, Monday mornings, or the perception of their own limitations – in the pursuit of a more full life fueled by a great workout. The 360 campaign includes video and digital components that will run in Flywheel studios and across paid social, pre-roll and digital media. The campaign is rolling out through 2018. 
Phenomenon also played a key role in the Fly Anywhere product design, including early involvement in product and design strategy, features, UX and UI design, and brand experience continuity.
