Grandma goes wild

Astral introduces a wild campaign.

[iframe_vimeo video=”32873141″]
Astral has launched a new consumer campaign to build and increase consumer awareness about its diversified programming offering, which it is touting as anything but ordinary. To illustrate the point, it had Montreal-based BCP create a multiplatform campaign featuring the tagline “Switch off the ordinary,” including the above commercial. In it, a well-off grandmother and her family are sitting down to a quiet, seemingly mundane meal until granny announces that she has sold pretty much everything to go on tour. What sort of tour? Well we’re not sure, but it involves the sparkler bra that Lady Gaga once wore. We’re not sure who it looked better on.
