Comments:
This campaign appeals to a younger demographic with its unexpected and amusing visual pairings. This advertisement demonstrates the benefits of “thinking light” by featuring a sumo wrestler elegantly pirouetting in ballet slippers. He appears to be floating above the glossy hardwood floors, emphasizing his unexpected lightness. This eye-catching advertisement pulls teens in and attracts them to Merit Ultra Lights through humor and surprise.
