Christmas is coming, and among manic Christmas shopping and office parties, there's another festive tradition that gets people talking: Christmas ads. Nowhere does this debate happen more than on Twitter, so this year, those conversations have inspired the platform to launch one of the most unique adverts of the season. It starts back in November 2020, when @DanannMcAleer tweeted saying that at age seven he wrote the perfect Christmas advert, a story he wrote as a child, complete with illustrations. He even tagged John Lewis inviting them to use it for their 2021 campaign.
Agency: DAVID, Madrid Well, John Lewis didn’t, but Twitter did. To show how the Christmas spirit floods Twitter every year, the platform brought this story to life: a surreal tale about two snowflakes, or rather ‘snow flacks’, called James and Jack, whose adventures include bouncing from an octopus in the sea into a snow spray factory. It’s magical, it’s absurd and it’s proof that all kinds of Christmas conversations are on Twitter. Alongside the film is an interview documenting the reaction of the original Tweeter and writer, Danann McAleer. His shocked and delighted reaction speaks for itself. “I absolutely love it,” he commented. “It’s beautifully done, and I think it should be the start of a franchise! That’s made my day. And made my Christmas too.” It doesn’t end there. To celebrate the launch, Twitter will even be giving away some physical mementos on the platform to fans of the film, including some very special soft toys. Worth watching out for!
