Hasta La Motion!

Cup Noodles, the instant ramen noodles snack by Nissin-Ajinomoto, is being promoted in Brazil with the launch of drones with cows, chickens, corn cobs and shrimps. The tagline, “You never know when you’ll get hungry,” is put to the test in a 2:30 commercial by a team sending Cup Noodles Drones to surfers, skateboarders and high liners. Filmed in São Bento do Sapucaí (Pedra do Baú), Ubatuba e São Bernardo do Campo, the online commercial features skateboarders Felipe Foguinho, surfers Marcelo Trekinho, Carlos Bahia and Gabriel Pastori, and skyliner Cadu.

The president and CCO of Dentsu Brasil, Mario D’Andrea, says that the campaign is focused on bringing entertainment and even products to the brand’s young fans. The campaign is focused entirely on online communication. “With an authentic and modern identity, the campaign is part of a true and very simple concept: “Cup Noodles can be consumed not only at home but also in the street, on the beach or while playing sports.”
