OVERVIEW

Background

Consumers with severe asthma who face every day not knowing what might trigger an attack — Pet dander? Strong smells? Exhaust fumes? Cold temperatures? Other medications are indicated to treat certain types of severe asthma. But TEZSPIRE works across all severe asthma types. So you can be more yourself.

Execution

We meet several extremely unique characters, each with unexpected interests. A hardcore punk rocker, who happens to love kittens and fragrant flowers. A sweet, old grandmother who happens to drive a loud, exhaust-belching hot rod. A native Samoan, who escaped the warmth of the tropics to become an ice sculptor. A fashionable soccer mom, who loves to get dirty and chop wood while her broad-shouldered husband (who looks like a lumberjack) prefers quiet time with the kids. And an extremely petite woman, who not only owns her own dog-walking business, but just happens to be strong enough to walk three enormous, powerful dogs, using one hand.

Despite their initial appearance, each character exudes a passion for their favorite things in life, no matter how unexpected. And they’re clearly confident in being themselves, despite what anyone might think — and despite their severe asthma.
