With summer holidays in full swing, Europe’s leading airline and the UK’s fastest growing holiday provider, easyJet, is back on the airwaves with a new fully integrated campaign and … read morebrand platform. Holidays are precious. Despite the cost of living crisis people are continuing to prioritise travel. To bring this sentiment to life, easyJet and creative agency of record, VCCP London, have embarked on a new creative direction; producing a distinctive and memorable campaign that premieres its new brand platform, ‘Get Out There’. The platform encapsulates the emotion of travel alongside embodying the brand's bold challenger spirit. In the pan-European campaign, crowd-drawing objects of tourism become the tourists themselves. Breaking free from their frames and plinths to experience the tonic to life's noise, travel. Mona Lisa, Girl with the Pearl Earring, David, The Thinker and even a couple of cherubs learn what it's like to fully immerse themselves in the unbounded joy of travel. Instead of creating the protagonists in digital form or using AI, easyJet and VCCP London opted to cast across Europe to find real people to capture the humanity and unbounded spirit of these historic icons experiencing travel for the first time. Their story unfolds in a 30” film directed by renowned commercial and music video director, Patrick Daughters. The spot opens in Paris’ most famous gallery, Le Louvre, with the shocking scene of Mona Lisa having left her frame. We cut to see Mona Lisa, passport in hand, escaping her everyday and checking in for an easyJet flight with a boarding pass - destination: Athens. Over the next few scenes, other familiar faces are seen, unexpectedly experiencing the best that Europe has to offer, from sunbathing on the beach to taking a road trip up the coast. A sentiment that is also captured in impactful stills that support the campaign and which will run across owned channels. Social sits at the heart of this campaign, with bespoke content featuring the ‘Get Out There’ characters. By taking the body language of travel influencers and overlaying it with the campaign idea, we elevated how the brand shows up across its social channels. Running across paid campaign assets and always-on organic content, each piece of content adheres to platform best-practice for both Meta and TikTok providing an authentic and unique approach to amplifying the campaign through social channels.
