Broadcast Ad Series – "MightySat"
Masimo is the creator of MightySat – a fingertip pulse oximeter that measures your oxygen saturation, pulse rate, perfusion index, and pleth variability index so that athletes can discover what they’re body is telling them, and push themselves to perform at their peak potential.
The Challenge
Since most of the MightySat ads we created were high-intensity and serious in nature, Masimo requested we make this next ad more light-hearted and comical. Oh, and since the availability of certain talent was limited, we needed to concept, write, and shoot this in 10 days.
The Approach
Oftentimes, comedy is found in two very contrasting characters found on the same stage. In this case, the contrast was between that of a young, upcoming pro (Taylor Fritz), and an older, retired pro (Tommy Haas). The question we wanted our audience to ask was, “Does Tommy have what it takes?” Enjoy.
The Challenge
Similar to the Tommy Haas ad, Masimo needed a light-hearted commercial that focused on the benefits the MightySat can bring to retired athletes.
The Approach
What better way to showcase an effective product, than to see how it can help you overcome some young blood? Cue Daniela Hantuchova versus Coco Vandeweghe.
The Challenge
As our third installment in the Masimo series, we were tasked with spotlighting Taylor Fritz, an up and coming tennis star.
The Approach
We determined the best way to tell Taylor’s story and how it relates to the product was to showcase his desire to be number one, and how the MightySat is helping him do just that.
The Challenge
This was the second MightySat ad we created for Masimo, and they needed us to capitalize on how even the most aggressive players can hone their skills thanks to the MightySat.
The Approach
Let’s just put it this way… Coco Vandeweghe is a very passionate player, so anything that can help her control her passion is a major benefit.
The Challenge
This was our first MightySat National TV spot for Masimo. They came to us because they wanted something exciting that captured the Olympic spirit.
Approach
After learning that MightySat was sponsoring Olympian Dotsie Bausch, we chose to focus on what it takes to achieve Olympic success. And since we were targeting athletes, we knew that it wasn’t enough to simply speak athlete… we had to make ‘em feel it.
