Brief Explanation

'Carabao Fitness Center' always has special offers for people to lose weight. The main message: no matter how high or low your motivation is: at 'Carabao' we will challenge your body –and that will be fun. A brand new course you can take at Carabao is 'CROSSFIT'. This workout promises to reach the maximum effect of weight loss with very little effort. Therefore, we were looking for a music that transports this idea perfectly. The solution: we use the body of our actor as an instrument and demonstrate 'beat your pounds'. The new course offer 'Crossfit' - which promises high effect with little effort - is represented by the little people who energetically work on the body.

Creative Execution

This commercial is the follow-up of a TV-Spot for the Carabao Fitness Center that has already been running last year. This one now promotes the new course offer 'CROSSFIT'. The music track is an original score written specifically for this video.
