Brentter points us to Coke’s latest spot Endless Summer, courtesy of Singleton Ogilvy & Mather and Monkey Labs, Sydney. It reminds us of W+K’s Happiness Factory and is a far cry from the benign but boring polar bears of early Coke ads.
We find it cute and wonderful but can’t help wondering why the Coke droplets are cannibalizing one another. Don’t they know it will eventually be them in those bottles they’re so gaily clinking? Or is their leap into Coke bottles representative of an endless summer’s cyclical nature?
Is this some kind of metaphor about the frothy continuity of life? Has someone at Ogilvy been reading The Stranger?
