MANILA, PHILIPPINES — It’s summer in the Philippines again. Temperatures are hitting new highs and doing simple, everyday tasks can make one sweat buckets. This is the premise of Grab’s most recent summer ad.
The film takes viewers through the day of a lovable character as he goes about his daily tasks. From community, to working at his office, and cooking a meal at home – he’s always drenched in waterfall-level sweat. Playing with this hyperbole, Grab promoted its services like the air-conditioned GrabCar and the ability to order cold drinks from GrabFood without needing to step out to meet the scorching heat of the sun.
Despite the heat being unforgiving, Grab promises a “No Sweat Summer” for its users in the Philippines. The film, conceptualized by GIGIL, is the agency’s first collaboration with award-winning Thai production house Factory01 Bangkok.
