Special Group has created a new Smile Guide campaign for Lumino the Dentists, featuring a 30-second tvc directed by Jamie Lawrence, created by Special Group. And, unlike the usual dental ad, it’s droll, dry – and seriously funny.
Lumino operations GM Josh Stent said: “While we take our work and our professionalism with patients seriously, we loved Special’s take on the outcome of a visit to a Lumino practice.
Special’s partnership with Eight has created a campaign that is the first stage of taking the Lumino brand in a fresh direction using honesty and humour while focusing on what we do best – making people smile.”
Special Group creative director Angus Hennah said: “With a tagline like ‘Love your smile’, humour seemed a natural path to explore. And although the spot marks a change in tone for Lumino, it reinforces that they not only leave you with a great new smile, but their friendly personalised service and great value offers also leave you smiling.”
Eight director Jamie Lawrence said: “It was a pleasure to work with the good folk at Special and a brave client who isn’t afraid to push the boundaries.
“This idea was funny on the page, so I felt a huge responsibility to serve the creative well. Can’t wait to see how the audiences respond.”
