Stater Bros. - Date Night
Something Massive makes TVC for Stater Bros. Markets
Brand
Stater Bros. Markets is a regional supermarket chain based in California, with over 170 stores serving communities throughout Southern California. As part of their ongoing efforts to emphasize their commitment to community values, Stater Bros. Markets approached us to create a series of television commercials that would showcase their dedication to helping customers find the products they need and enjoy a great shopping experience. The first commercial we created for them was called Date Night, which focused on a young man who needed help selecting the perfect items for a special evening with his girlfriend.
Objective
The objective of the “Date Night” commercial was to highlight Stater Bros. Markets’ commitment to putting the community first by providing excellent customer service and helping customers find the products they need to create special moments with loved ones. By featuring helpful employees and emphasizing the quality and variety of products available at Stater Bros. Markets, we aimed to position the supermarket as a trusted resource for shoppers seeking to make special occasions memorable.
Execution
To execute the “Date Night” commercial, we worked closely with the Stater Bros. Markets’ marketing team to develop a concept that would resonate with viewers and effectively communicate the brand’s messaging. We settled on a storyline featuring a young man who was at a loss when it came to selecting the perfect items for a romantic evening with his girlfriend. As he wandered through the store, he was approached by helpful employees who guided him through the selection process and offered suggestions for wine, filet mignon, and flowers that would be perfect for the occasion.
The commercial was shot on location at a new Stater Bros. Markets, and we worked with a talented cast and crew to bring the story to life. We utilized high-quality cinematography, naturalistic acting, and a warm, inviting color palette to create a visually appealing and emotionally engaging spot that would resonate with viewers.
