30 years after the iconic “Dancing Man” ad, Guinness introduces a playful stop-motion film to showcase its innovative Nitrosurge device and cans Guinness is inviting more people to experience the joy and communion of a perfect pint at home with its new campaign, “Dancing Can,” a modern nod to the beloved 1994 “Dancing Man” ad. This latest campaign highlights how the Guinness Nitrosurge device puts the power of a perfect pour directly into consumers' hands. Launched in Great Britain last year, the pocket-sized device uses ultrasonic technology to create the iconic surge with perfectly formed nitrogen bubbles delivering satisfyingly smooth Guinness every time, everywhere. Developed in partnership with AMV BBDO, “Dancing Can” uses a stop-motion twist to capture the ritual of pouring a perfect pint of Guinness, featuring a ‘dancing’ Nitrosurge can and device. The device is activated by clipping it onto the top of a Guinness Nitrosurge can, before pushing the button and pouring. The resulting pour is unmistakably Guinness, with its iconic dark liquid and creamy domed head. The 30-second hero film, directed by Johnny Kelly and produced by BAFTA-winning Nexus Studios, was shot using is a blend of live-action and stop-motion techniques. Set to the lively “Guaglione” track by Perez Prado, just as in the 1994 ad, the spot celebrates the quality and cheer of enjoying the perfect pour at home while highlighting the charm and innovation of the product. Anna MacDonald, Guinness GB Marketing Director, said, “We wanted to translate the excitement and desirability of the Nitrosurge device, that gives Guinness fans an enhanced pouring experience which delivers beautiful, great tasting Guinness, every time. It’s a true celebration of innovation, in a fun and engaging way.” AMV BBDO creative team behind the campaign Anzhela Hayrabedyan and Luca Grosso said, “Whether it’s a person or a can, 30 years later, the excitement and joy of watching the liquid settle into the perfect pint of Guinness still rings true. The unique charm and craft of stop-frame animation was the answer to bring this emotion to life." Johnny Kelly, Director at Nexus Studios, said, “The original ‘Dancing Man’ video is one of my all-time favourite pieces of advertising, so it was a complete pleasure and terror to dance in its footprints. But I think our animator answered that conclusively. Our Guinness Can has moves I could only dream of.” The campaign will run across Great Britain on TV, online, and social platforms in various formats, including 30, 20, 15, and 6-second versions, ensuring widespread reach and engagement .
