The Campaign

The film idea of Reese’s was based on Reese’s “perfect combination of chocolate and peanut butter”, where we teamed up with Alaa Wardi to create the perfect combination of music and comedy, creating the #bettertogether song. The film was created by compiling different sounds uploaded by users following Alaa Wardi’s initial recruitment video where he asked people to submit random sounds. Alaa then collected these videos and merged them in harmony to create the Reese’s song only using user-generated sounds.
