Barnes, Catmur & Friends Dentsu rebrands the golden crunch for Simplot

Undertaking a complete brand relaunch, Barnes, Catmur & Friends Dentsu has reinvigorated Simplot’s Birds Eye Golden Crunch chips and what the product stands for.

The new direction includes instore, online activity and packaging, with a TVC and cinema spot, capturing the idiosyncrasies of family life, done by Jamie Lawrence from Eight.

In the 30-second TVC a mother calls out to her family that dinner is ready. Despite her best efforts, other activities such as reading, PlayStation and pruning the garden, mean her calls fall on deaf ears.

Exasperated at the wait, the mum takes a bite of a golden crunch chip causing the whole house to shake and within a second the rest of the family is sitting at the table, ready.

Mick Stalker, creative director, says he initially touched on an insight dating back to his childhood years when dinner time in his household took some mighty shouting before breaking through the barrier of adolescent teens playing Sega.     

The collaboration saw Simplot combine several Dentsu agency capabilities, working not only with BC&F Dentsu but also MKTG and Vizeum.
