Magnum China has teamed up with virtual human imma to launch its new Matcha flavor in latest campaign via Fred & Farid Shanghai

Magnum China has partnered with imma, the most famous virtual human in Asia and Fred & Farid Shanghai to launch its new flavor Magnum Matcha, available in China.

 

The new campaign follows the latest Magnum global creative platform “Never Stop Playing”, an attitude about being true to your pleasure, whatever it is. The main objective of the campaign was to launch the highly anticipated Japanese matcha flavor in mainland China with a playful twist, while increasing the brand’s awareness in a particularly competitive market. This was the first flavor created specifically for the Chinese market.

Fred & Farid Shanghai, Magnum’s lead agency in China, developed the campaign with a unique collaboration between the brand and imma, the most famous Virtual Human in Asia from Japan, produced by Aww Inc. With her very distinct energy, character, and look she is the perfect model to recall the Japanese cultural dichotomy.

The agency imagined an entire campaign with a TVC, key visuals, social content, and promotional sites with imma as the main brand ambassador. #NeverStopPlaying is about daring to be yourself without worrying about anyone’s judgment. In the TVC, we can discover the eye-catchy Imma having fun and riding a longboard among the surprised crowd of the Japanese megalopolis while enjoying her Magnum matcha Ice-cream.
