Automotive body shop chain Maaco rolls out a “Join the Upside” musical campaign created by Charlotte-based ad agency Mythic and directed by Drew Kirsch of production company Tomorrow. In this spot titled “Old Red,” country music drives the fun as the story unfolds to a Nashville-inspired beat.
The commercial features a young woman not too thrilled about receiving a truck, “Old Red,” for free--because it looks a bit embarrassing with a faded paint job and numerous scratches.
But her adult benefactors implore her to see what Maaco can do--which serves as a cue for a highly enthusiastic Mr. Maaco, who appears on the scene, transforming the truck right before their eyes (“Old Red” becomes “New Red”), with an original, inspiring, uplifting country music interlude.
Music/sound house on the campaign was duotone audio group.
