Did you catch all five on the Verdin blog this month?
For big brands, holiday commercials have gone beyond pushing products. They’re feature films. They’re works of art. They swallow massive budgets and touch the holiday heartstrings.
They’re fun to dream up, and they’re really fun to watch.
2017 brought an impressive lineup. We’ve narrowed our favorites down to these five, and we’d love to hear if you agree!
#1
M&M reminds us that the act of giving is as a special as the gift itself. It doesn’t have to be flawless if it’s done with a lot of heart.
#2
The relatable drama that surrounds cooking a turkey underlines a message of inclusion from British grocery store Tesco.
#3
Reminiscent of a black Friday experience, anyone? Thanks for the laughs, Audi.
#4
In this Apple commercial, when two strangers share a song, they share a spectacular dance, too.
#5
This heartwarming ad has a strong finish, as Macy’s clinches it with a line that gets at the reason we all shop in the first place.
