In this cheeky public service announcement-themed commercial, Pizza Hut reveals its new two-foot-long pizza called the 'Big Flavor Dipper, 'while advising people to "selfie responsibly." The commercial focuses on delivering hilarious entertainment and promotion of its new product.
The commercials has a spokesperson describing the pitfalls of taking self-portraits called sefies using the extendable selfie-sticks. The connection between pizza and selfies is that you need an extendable selfie stick to fully capture the massive pizza. Simply extending your arm won't allow the whole pizza to make it in the frame.
The creator of the funny commercial for the two-foot-long pizza is the co-funder of Sharabiliry, Tim Staples. He says that branding has taken a turn towards sharing content. Infusing this vibe into the commercial will hopefully make the ad go viral.
