Asylum Kissed Again New Ad For Hershey's Kisses "CheckList"


Asylum VFX, via Arnold, created two vibrantly animated Hershey's spots, directed by Kommitted's Nathan McGuinness, the latest in a string of projects that the companies have collaborated on for the chocolate-making giant.

The two :15s are set in the now-familiar elaborate, glimmering CG Hershey's factory, with anthropomorphic Hershey's Kisses running about. Checklist features a Kiss moving along a conveyor belt as quality-control personnel examine the candy to see that is has sufficient levels of "delicious," "shine," and "one of a kind" before it is catapulted out into the live-action world, where a mother and daughter smile over their newfound treat. Timid features a Kiss who's frightened to board the catapult. A fellow Kiss comes to the rescue, offering the timid Kiss encouragement, and the two are hurdled out of the factory and into a live-action setting, where a young boy shares the chocolate treats with his grinning parents.

"We're really pleased to put out another pair of spots for this popular campaign," noted Asylum EP Mike Pardee. "Asylum and Arnold have always been strong collaborators and I think it reflects not only in this campaign, but the previous as well."
