It's a Pepper Thing

Dr Pepper reveals their first permanent flavor with a series of misdirects for Strawberries & Cream. On social, they partnered with Yung Gravy to make a rap and an animated music video for the new flavor.

The Story:

Hey world, do you want to montage? That’s what it took to launch Dr Pepper’s new tagline, ‘It’s a Pepper Thing’ We traveled our director from New Zealand, cast in Canada, Argentina & Norway and even did storyboards in Singapore. We all came together in Uruguay for 4x days of montage. Together forever is right, as even Rick Astley was involved.
