Oreo: Stay Playful by The Martin Agency
- Location:
Playfulness has always been part of the Oreo brand’s DNA, and now with the debut of its new 'Stay Playful' campaign, the brand is outwardly establishing its playful spirit as the core of all creative communications including new TV, digital and social and content partnerships. For over a century, Oreo has been bringing out the playful spirit in the young and old to connect us, and now, at a time we need it the most, the Oreo campaign is inspiring the world to keep the playful spirit alive.
To kick off the campaign in the US and Canada, Oreo partnered with musician Wiz Khalifa and his five-year-old son, Sebastian, for the brand’s newest TV ad. The 'Stay Playful' TV spot tells the story of a busy father and his son who is closely watching and mirroring everything his dad does, ultimately making them realize the importance of taking time to be playful with one another. Khalifa recorded an original song about the importance of staying playful, which serves as the soundtrack for the ad.
'Stay Playful' will debut the 30-second version of the spot during the 2019 Grammy Awards on February 10.
Oreo is also releasing Khalifa’s full-length original Oreo song to fans in an unexpected, playful way – via a new, limited edition of the Oreo Music Box. Fans will be able to hear the newest full-length Wiz Khalifa track exclusively on an Oreo cookie. The Oreo X Wiz Khalifa Limited-Edition Music Box is a miniature record player powered by Oreo cookies. Just place an Oreo cookie on the music box turn-table (like you would a record), slide the record arm into place and a song will play. Oreo will give away a limited run of the boxes on Grammy Sunday. For a chance to win, fans can visit Oreo.com on February 10.
