“It’s been a joy teaming up with the creative team at BarkleyOKRP and everyone at Big O Tires,” said Josh of GoshDamn. “We’re pretty experienced at collaborating (being a duo), but it’s special when you really click with a creative team and a client, when all the long Zoom calls and late-night voice memos end in laughter and make you excited for what’s next. We all wanted to make something stand-out and bold. We were keen to go BIG on over-the-top reactions. The problems are relatable, but it’s those exaggerated responses that bring the humour… and maybe feel a little relatable too.”
The ad showcases GoshDamn’s signature visual style and storytelling sensibility, blending authenticity with a punchy comedic edge that resonates across audiences. Production by Late Shift brought the concept from script to screen with precision and flair, ensuring that each beat landed with crisp energy and audience appeal. Late Shift ran post production, managing editorial through finishing.
This collaboration with BarkleyOKRP continues Big O Tires’ tradition of creative advertising that connects with consumers while highlighting real value, in this case, significant instant savings on quality tire purchases.
