Overview

When Donutology set out to introduce its brand, the goal wasn't to create another bakery commercial—it was to create something people couldn't ignore. The idea was simple: send a donut into space. The campaign was designed to generate buzz, spark conversation, and give people a reason to discover a brand-new donut shop.

My Role

I contributed to the creative development of the campaign and edited the final film, helping shape the story of the donut's journey from launch to its return to Earth. The goal was to capture the sense of fun and curiosity behind the stunt while creating a memorable piece that audiences would want to share.

Impact

The campaign generated excitement across social media and gave Donutology a launch story unlike any other. After returning from space, the donut was preserved and displayed in the shop as a one-of-a-kind brand artifact, extending the campaign beyond the screen and giving customers a tangible connection to the story.
