“In Common: Defying Expectations” [Director’s Cut]

Director / Editor: Katherine Fairfax Wright

“In Common: Heroes in Disguise”

“For McDonald’s first brand campaign in more than four years, it wanted to focus on the things Americans have in common. As the country’s largest fast-food chain, in terms of sales, its goal was to showcase how the chain stands apart as a gathering place for consumers across demographic, philosophical, political, and geographic divisions. Each of the final films—which appeared across digital, social, and linear on MTV, Comedy Central, BET, and VH1—starts with one of the subjects performing some aspect of their day-to-day routine and welcomes the viewer into their world. The campaign resulted in 47.5 million impressions and 524,820 total engagements across social media.”
