An old-timey holiday campaign for See’s Candies, the beloved California classic :)

“Sharing is Caring” :15

“Family Tradition” :15

“Ode to Lolly” :15

“Stocking Stuffer” :15

We also photographed the candies in a series of festive geometric arrangements (shot by Laurie Frankel and her team) at the See’s studio in San Francisco.

In post, we compiled the photographs into stop motion videos for social content and static layouts for OOH.

And if you’re into this kind of stuff, below I’ve included some of the rationale behind the campaign’s art direction choices:
