Advertising wizards The Monkeys have created a new campaign highlighting Australian Beef’s sponsorship of the Australian Olympic and Paralympic teams ahead of the Tokyo Games.
Directed by Trevor Clarence, ‘Feed Your Greatness’ showcases world champion javelin thrower Kelsey Lee-Barber engaged in a battle with her brother at dinner for the last piece of beef.
Meat & Livestock Australia’s domestic market manager, Graeme Yardy, said: “We know Australians take great pride in putting Aussie beef on their tables.
“Our partnership with the Olympic and Paralympic teams allows us to put the nutritional benefits of beef on centre stage.”
Scott Dettrick, creative director at The Monkeys, said: “We wanted to show in a fun way that the nutritional benefits of Australian beef can help you be your best every day, and it’s not just athletes that can benefit from that.”
The ad launched across free to air and subscription TV nationally last night, and will be pushed out across digital, social and retail OOH channels by UM, with the ad running on Channel 7 free to air, BVOD and Twitter for the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
One Green Bean will be driving coverage for the campaign across earned media and owned social.
