True, we are a Chicago agency. But when your client sells a Lone Star State staple, you learn Texan right quick.
Our new campaign for venerable Wolf Brand Chili had to reach a dual audience: native Texans familiar with the #1 brand they’ve known since 1895 and new markets where we will introduce this bold and bean-less delight. We needed authentic content, and lots of it. So we spent two weeks shooting all over the state with director/Texan Jeff Bednarz. We staged some scenes then hit the road to find what we’d find: cattle drives, longhorns, rodeos and lots and lots of chili. Powers Boothe’s deep, gravelly voice finishes these two spots of the Texas we found…and love, Yankees or not.
