Created by Goodby Silverstein & Partners and directed by Jonny Mass of RSA Films, this spot for BMW’s annual Road Home Sales Event shows how a quirky happening gives a father the wrong idea about the holiday gift he’s getting from his son.
This :45 commercial puts known category tropes (big red bow, anyone?) together with the power of Mother Nature to show us what can happen when the right thing falls into the wrong context.
“The idea is a welcome shift from the usual. It takes what we know of the holidays and holiday car commercials and adds a signature wink,” said Wes Phelan, executive creative director, Goodby Silverstein & Partners.
Starting this week and running into the World Cup, BMW plans to run the "Big Red Bow" spot on TV and online.
