Coca Cola Christmas

A sneak preview of the new Christmas Ad that is going to reach millions of people across Europe during the next week.



whatever said and done, christmas in the west has always been associated with Coca Cola. the connection is definitely with the red color. coca cola as such does not claim to have created Santa Claus, but i am quite sure that a lot of people in the west do have that strong belief. i confirmed it too. last christmas, when i was in london, we had a christmas lunch at the office and our sourcing manager who is a jamaican by nativity brought up the topic of gift giving during christmas and then mentioned that Coca Cola had a historic connection with Santa Claus and they had originally created the concept of Santa. Ignorance IS always bliss.

This ad was directed by Kerry Conran who has directed the movie - "Sky Captain and the world of tomorrow". If you havent seen this movie, then you've missed another great movie in that ever expanding list of yours.
