This year again, the Classico (Olympique de Marseille VS Paris Saint Germain) will be broadcast live and exclusively on Canal+ on Sunday, February 25th at 9pm.

A dedicated website launched at the same time lets supporters join the experience and sting a virtual doll of the rival team.

Opavia is the number one biscuit brand in the Czech Republic in sales. But the Opavia brand was not much recognized as their packages carried a sub-brand name. Our goal was to show that everyone's favorite biscuits were actually Opavia biscuits by introducing the brand in their packs. During research, we had discovered that people like their cookies so much that they even hide their favorite ones from family members. So we used that insight to brand their communication with the concept: "where do you hide your Opavia?", and created the detective character, who goes around the house finding everyone's Opavia.
