Virgin: Experience Days by Atomic
- Location:
Virgin’s latest campaign is the first-ever TV ad for its Experience Days, which allows customers to gift anything from short breaks to spa trips.
The film uses a match cut technique and sees people given a dramatic foretaste of their gifts, such as falconry or a cocktail masterclass when they touch the red book gifted to them. In a humorous final scene, a man transports his son to a skydiving instructor as they free-fall at 15,000 feet.
The red book as seen in the ad was also created by Atomic and will now feature at the heart of the actual gift experience when ordered from Virgin.
The 30-second spot ad will run across TV channels including Discovery, Sky Atlantic and Food Network, as well as Digital and Social channels. There will also be a Christmas version of the campaign on air over the festive period.
