COMMERCIAL

“The Gut Gap” presented by MiraLAX

Agency: Energy BBDO & Oliver | Production: Biscuit Filmworks

Symone directed the award-winning, national ad campaign "The Gut Gap," tackling female gut health with the help of Broad City stars Ilana Glazer & Abbi Jacobson (and written by them!). Since the spot dropped, it's gone viral — getting excellent coverage and winning several Clios, including a Gold Clio in Entertainment. You may watch the 3-minute Director’s cut here.

 

“Bathwater” for Liquid Death

Symone's recent spec commercial "Bathwater" brings Liquid Death’s killer thirst-quenching power to a new audience. More women are reaching for Liquid Death and Symone created a spot that invites them in — keeping Liquid Death’s iconic brand voice, with just a splash of romance. Featuring their new Death Dust product & heroing the “Mango Chainsaw” flavor.

 

“Your One Nightstand” for Julie Emergency Contraceptive

Symone's recent spec commercial "Your One Nightstand" takes the conversation of emergency contraceptive out of the pharmacy and into the bedroom. Playing on Julie’s existing brand copy “Your Friend with Benefits,” Symone invites viewers into a relatable morning-after scene, all while keeping Julie’s youthful and comedic brand voice. Featuring their 2-pack product and heroing it in-world — in what else, but a nightstand.
