Mullen, Psyop Somehow Make Yogurt Look Visceral, Sexy

Mullen has debuted its first creative effort for its new client, Greek yogurt brand FAGE, and suffice to say, this isn’t your average Dannon, Yoplait or Activia spot. The campaign has been dubbed “Plain Extraordinary” featuring a lyrical rhyme that tells the story of how “Plain became so much more than more than plain” or something to that effect which is mouthed from someone who may or may not be Willem Dafoe (if so, the man has found a second career).

Mullen Mark Wenneker says in a statement, “If our advertising is half as good as the yogurt, I will be pleased.” We’ll let you be the judge of that, but in addition to the broadcast component, there’s a website re-design included along with a Facebook page and Twitter stream.
