Fancy VFX, a sister company to Goldcrest Post, New York, recently teamed with BBDO and production company Biscuit to tell the fictional story of an NFL star who unwittingly turns a small business into an overnight sensation in a new spot for FedEx.
Featuring Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry, the spot is the first in a new campaign themed "Where Now Meets Next," highlighting FedEx’s support for small business. Tweeting from the living room of his home, Henry mistypes the hashtag “Titanfans” as “Titanpans” causing a boutique kitchenware retailer of that name to experience a surge in orders. FedEx comes to the business owner’s rescue with a package of ecommerce solutions.
