MINI
Defy Labels
Small... cute... chick. MINI has been called a lot of things over the years. So we went ahead and embraced these labels and abruptly turned them on theirs head to create a year long campaign.
CHAPTER I: SUPER BOWL
We launched the campaign with a Super Bowl spot. The spot ended up being the most watched car commercial and third-most watched commercial of SB50 garnering over 40MM views on YouTube.
CHAPTER II: THE OLYMPICS
This is the Olympic chapter of the "Defy Labels" campaign. We featured athletes who exceeded expectations on their road to Rio.
CHAPTER III: FEEDING AMERICA
Under the umbrella of Defy Labels, we launched #DefyHunger, a partnership with Feeding America, to raise awareness of the hunger epidemic and the issue of food waste across the U.S. With #DefyHunger, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure for 4,477 MINI owners became a 4,396-mile road trip with a bigger purpose. Owners took to their social channels and fundraised using their cars. Ultimately the initiative delivered 1,385,917+ meals to Feeding America and 2,631 pounds of local food bank donations along the way.
