We missed this one when it came out a couple of weeks ago but thanks to Copyranter, who published it today, we can share it with you now. We all know Stride gum has done some interesting work over the years, most notably, the work it did with Matt Harding who traveled around the globe to do his strange and contagious dance with the people of the world…all sponsored by Stride. Seriously fun and moving stuff.
This time, the brand, working with JWT which, sadly, just made staff cuts today, is going a bit darker. In a commercial that centers on a woman who just lost her husband and travels home with his ashes only to have them fall to the floor to discover…well…just watch the commercial to find out.
It’s no feel-good Matt Harding video but it does smack you with the brand’s message; Stride gum lasts a very long time.
