as seen on Tito’s

As summer came to a close and football season grew near, Tito’s Vodka wanted to kick off the conversation with an unsuspecting gameday drink: The Bloody Mary.

Styled to feel like a ‘90s infomercial, we created a cheeky spot complete with kitschy retro set design, a custom composed nostalgic track, over-the-top sound effects, and a silky smooth voiceover to seal the deal.

Inspired by vintage infomercials “ch-ch-ch-chia!”, we utilized rotating pedestals, rotary phones, and gave brand design elements a retro flair.

Fun times with a backup “dad-cam” camcorder, and some failed attempts playing garnish darts.
