Project Description:

We collaborated on Toys'R'Us' UK webstore relaunch in 2022, creating a heartwarming 30-second TV commercial and stunning photography. The campaign celebrated nostalgia and the bonds toys create across generations.

The Problem

Toys'R'Us needed to reconnect with the UK market, appealing to both longtime fans and new customers in a competitive environment. They required engaging content that would resonate emotionally with their audience.

The Approach/Solution

We crafted a narrative around a parent and child to show how toys can build stronger connections within families. Using warm tones to evoke fond memories, we chose the 30-second video ad format for its high engagement potential. Filmed in Australia, we used styling and cinematic techniques to create an authentic UK feel. Our team executed high-quality video shoots and photography sessions to create compelling content.

The Result

The campaign boosted Toys'R'Us' brand awareness and engagement, driving web traffic and sales while receiving positive feedback. The emotional resonance of the content helped strengthen their market position.
