Streaming with Snickers
Created with MARS
Snickers wanted to reposition themselves as the hanger snack of choice among the convenience-oriented Millennial & Gen-Z audience.
The Approach
Aligning snacking with binge-watching snackable VICE content, we developed the idea of using VICE playlists and custom pre-roll interstitials as a vehicle for promoting Snickers as a convenient re-fueler across all VICE channels.
The *unhinged* interstitials centered around a single protagonist navigating a bizarre set of hunger symptoms, speaking to the immersive nature of our custom playlists while hitting on key Snickers brand messaging.

Each was paired with each passion-centric playlist: top performing content in sports, gaming, and entertainment. Treating the spots as a binge watcher’s palate cleanser, we leaned into the zany kitsch typical of our VICELAND interstitials, keeping each surreal and dynamic to keep viewers energized.
