Lucky Generals Takes an Other Worldly Trip for Little Moons Ice Cream
Lucky Generals has embarked on an other-worldly trip out to launch Little Moons’ new brand platform; ‘Ice Cream From Another World’. This is the agency’s first major campaign for the brand since winning the account at the end of 2020.
The campaign and new platform aim to reflect the joyfully uplifting and unusual sensation of eating Little Moons mochi ice cream, while also building brand fame as the company looks to become one of the biggest Ice cream businesses in Europe.
The campaign directed by Em Cole through 1stAveMachine currently consists of two 20 second films ‘The Flavour System’ and ‘Necks Appeal’. The creative features other worldly settings of block colours and upbeat music. In ‘Necks Appeal’ two people eat Little Moons as their necks elongate and twist in delight. In ‘The Flavour System’ a woman enjoys a Little Moon while floating on a massive mochi ice cream ball, while smaller versions orbit around her. A third film will follow in 2022.
The work launches on 27th September during Gogglebox and First Dates. The ads follow a one-off mural at Ferdinand St in Camden and an OOH and social campaign all created by Lucky Generals, with MediaHub having done all the media planning and buying. The campaign will also run in France and Germany as well as the UK.
Vickie Ridley at Lucky Generals, said: “We wanted the work to reflect the joy you feel when eating a Little Moon…or twenty Little Moons…”
Ross Farquhar at Little Moons, said: “Developing a brand platform and campaign that captured why the world has fallen in love with Little Moons was no mean feat, especially given they’re unlike anything you’ve ever tasted before. Thankfully Lucky Generals have done just that, and I’m both proud and excited for what’s to come.”
Launched by brother and sister, Howard & Vivien Wong in 2010, Little Moons has since gone TikTok viral, achieving worldwide fame on the platform. It has captivated consumers with its unique product of gelato, wrapped in a layer of mochi dough.
