T&Pm is thinking small for the European debut of M&M’S Minis, which are launching across European markets this summer.
Mars Wrigley and its agency agency partner are introducing the brand with the “Mini in size, big on fun” campaign which plays with scale through a variety of disruptive media choices.
From a TV commercial that shrinks before your very eyes, to outdoor posters that feature sports in miniature, every media placement reflects the theme of big to small.
The playful manipulation of media formats cleverly highlights the small-in-size nature of M&M’S Minis, while also amplifying the big-on-fun attitude of M&M’S.
Lily Akerman, global M&M’S experience ecosystem lead, said: “The innovative approach of shrinking media space to highlight the unique, bite-sized nature of M&M’S Minis was both clever and impactful. We’re excited to see M&M’S Minis bring big smiles across Europe this summer.”
James Fernandes, creative director at T&Pm, added: “When you actively look at media as your creative canvas, it can easily elevate your story telling. This is a great example of creative and media working together perfectly at every touch point.”
The campaign also saw the brand team up with miniature artist and photographer Petit Monde to create the outdoor posters, which are being launched across Paris this July.
The artist was briefed to create charming miniature athletes interacting with the M&M’S Minis, leading to engaging visuals across the city to tie in with the summer of sport.
The campaign is based on the insight that consumers are increasingly looking for small but indulgent treats that feel permissible.
T&Pm is a full-service creative and media agency formed by the integration of The&Partnership and mSix&Partners, and backed by WPP and GroupM.
