BBH London has made some brilliant ads for British juice brand Robinsons over the years—notably, this Wimbledon spot and, of course, the famous "Pals" ad from 2013, which really is one of the great twist-ending ads ever.
Now, agency and client are back with a fun new :60 that uses some mildly freaky CGI to illustrate the new theme "They grow up fast."
We open on a mom, dad and baby boy. But within seconds, he's always getting bigger and bigger, and trying to run away from them. While some of the visual effects are maybe a little creepy in an Evian-like way, there's enough humor here that the spot works—and ends up being endearing.
"Play thirsty" is the tagline.
The campaign launched Saturday on Britain's Got Talent. The spot will be supported by out of home, digital outdoor and online advertising.
