CLIENT: GMC
AGENCY: LEO BURNETT DETROIT
ROLE: ASSOCIATE CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Super Cruise, sold through a simple, human truth: everyone claps to that song.
Instead of over-explaining driver-assist tech, we built the launch around a behavior the audience already knows by muscle memory. If you’re on the way to the concert and your hands are busy keeping the beat, hands-free driving suddenly feels not just impressive—it feels useful.
