Reinventing the Cheese Wheel

PROJECT: SHRED THE COMPETITION

Atalanta is one of the largest importers of international products in the United States and wanted to stand out among the piles of cheese found in typical grocer aisles.

THE CONSUMER CHALLENGE
How do you stand out among the piles of cheese found in typical grocer aisles?

FIT FOR THE KING OF CHEESE

Led and funded by the Italian Consortium to help educate American consumers on the benefits and usage occasions, Spitball orchestrated a program that would make even DaVinci cry with pride. We created a custom kit, modeled to look like a cheese wheel. We halved and hinged it with the bottom serving as the food-friendly sample vessel and the top housing a motion-sensor video screen that would play educational shorts. A work of art we must say.

MUNCH AND LEARN

We put on our Coppola and Scorsese caps to create a series of videos to help bring viewers into the kitchen and discover new ways to use Parmigiano Reggiano. Unlike other stale and expected cooking video approaches, Spitball looked to make the series feel authentic and unique. Careful lighting, shot aesthetic and incorporating children cooking into the visual storytelling helped the campaign win numerous awards.

 

 

We were looking for creative ideas to help Parmigiano Reggiano stand out in-store. Spitball completely blew us away. Their vision helped turn our pilot program into one of the cornerstone initiatives of our company. The program is helping us sell more at retail, which was the goal. Thanks to them, we now have another sales/marketing tool that we can offer to help us secure new customers and I have fancy trophies on my desk from our award wining social campaign!
