Scooter Giveaway
The Concept
The idea was to shine a light on a Volkswagen giveaway that stands out from the rest.
What if we did something completely silly?
Because most other dealerships are:
- Take themselves too seriously
- Don't have the talent to produce anything
- Are too scared to take a swing
By leaning into silliness we wanted to stand out among a sea of sameness.
Creative Direction
The tone needed to feel fun, a bit silly and slight clever all at the same time.
We leaned into:
- Showing the vehicles
- Explaining the prize
- Moving quickly
- And having fun
The result is a video that feels authentic, slightly chaotic and genuinely funny.
Production Approach
To keep it feeling fresh, the production was intentionally simple.
- Minimal crew presence
- Keeping the camera almost still with the subject darting across
- Natural lighting where possible
- Basing it in the showroom and at the dealership
- Clear script delivered slightly chaotically
The humour comes from the silliness and general sense of fun being had.
The Outcome
The finished piece does more than get a laugh. It resulted in over 10,000 views and used as an ad for duration of the campaign which saw a spike in sales.
It positions Tristram Volkswagen as:
- Fun and real
- Different from the others
- Confident enough to not take themselves too seriously
It’s memorable. It’s shareable. And most importantly, it draws attention to a limited time offer without being too heavy handed.
