amazing Aero candy bar commercial from the UK-featuring Bob Burnquist
£7m bubbles ad for Aero
Link to this video Nestlé is seeking to reinvent the female-targeted Aero bar, last promoted by Sex and the City hunk Jason Lewis, with a £7m ad campaign featuring skateboard star Bob Burnquist.
The repositioning of the Aero bar will see a new TV campaign launch tonight on Channel 4. The 60-second ad, called "Feel the Bubbles", is the first new TV work for the brand in two years.
The ad features Burnquist, a winner of countless X Games competitions, skating through chocolate-coloured balloons in a skate park to a soundtrack of the Jackson Five's catchy song ABC.
The TV ad was shot at a skate park in California using 50,000 chocolate coloured balloons to create a "bubble-filled environment" in which Burnquist performs tricks.
Ad agency JWT's campaign aims to reposition the Aero brand to target a slightly younger demographic of males and females.
In another radical departure for the brand, JWT hired skateboard movie cinematographer Ty Evans to direct the commercial.
Aero was previously backed by a £6m TV campaign featuring a shirtless Jason Lewis, the actor better known as the male model Smith Jerrod from Sex and the City, telling women why there are bubbles in Aero bars.

No offense but your posts always are really hard to read/understand.
You should put a little more thought into them than just copying and pasting new clips.
