In the third cinematic Kroger holiday campaign within our ongoing relationship with DDB, a story of curiosity and neighborly care reminds us that sharing is a key ingredient of the holiday season.
Following the tradition of our Kroger Holiday campaigns, the iconic “Kroji” design language established by Hornet's César Pelizer is given a cinematic air and an emotional narrative.
Brilliant color design and lighting bring rich vibrancy and subtly guide the audience through the story from solitude to warmth and connection. The CG and compositing teams diligently crafted sweaters you'd want to touch, snow you'd want to fall into, and as always, foods so appetizing you can practically smell the aromas.
