Tide “Uniforms” | Brand Anthem





Role Associate Creative Director
Agency Saatchi & Saatchi NY
Director Chris Malloy @ Farm League

        To demonstrate Tide’s status as the hardest-working detergent on the market, we created a :60 anthem celebrating the hardest-working clothes of all: uniforms. We looked at 500+ casting videos of real workers, selecting a group of people from waitresses to soldiers to create an authentically emotional ode to the clothes, the people who wear them, and the reasons they wear them every day. The spot aired on Labor Day, after about a year of passionately working to sell it to the client--a true labor of love.
