The Brief: There are plenty of cat videos on the internet so how can you create something for one of the worlds biggest pet food brands that engages directly with cat lovers more than a viral ever could?
The solution: Inspired by customer submitted photos of cats ravaging their Temptations packets, our very own Josh Hine found out what happens when you let 15 cats loose in a studio with a bunch of treats. The result was pretty wild!
Why it Mattr’d: The film encouraged cat lovers to share their stories and photos via the hashtag #PackAttack on a microsite. The hero film was repurposed for online, pre-roll and TV spots globally and as much as we hate the word went 'Viral' (as all cat videos do!) Not to brag but it did pretty well on the awards too...
