Christmas spots from elsewhere: As the holiday season kicks off Toyota is celebrating the joy in creating holiday memories with family through a message about spreading love this season. “Present from the Past” via Saatchi & Saatchi Los Angeles ~ which is creatively led by Aussie expat chief creative officer Jason Schragger ~ is the first of two Toyota holiday ads, which debuted last night during NBC’s primetime special “Christmas in Rockefeller Center” with a personalized throw from a show host. At the heart of Toyota’s Hispanic creative is the message that nothing says love like an airport pickup, especially during the holidays. Latinos will never back down from picking up their loved ones, even if it means sitting in endless traffic because the holidays aren’t complete until they’re together. The Hispanic spot titled, “Arrivals,” shows relatable moments of families and friends attempting to find their loved ones amidst the rows of cars, defying weather and traffic. Ultimately, reuniting with their family fills their hearts with joy and comfort, knowing they are finally home for the holidays. The bilingual spot was created by Conill Advertising and directed by Max Malkin.
