Robin Hood “Memories” and "Teaches Us" are two 30 second, fully computer animated spots created by
Redrover Animation Studios Ltd. for Smuckers Canada, represented by Ogilvy & Mather Canada. The spots reveal two children named Andrew and Elizabeth who are being interviewed in a documentary style show about why they enjoy baking with their mom. The table shows various used baking utensils to suggest they have just finished baking muffins and the product, a rolled up bag of Robin Hood flour, rests nearby. The sunny afternoon setting fills the kitchen with a warm inviting sunlight and creates a visually engaging commercial that arouses immediate interest in the viewer. Currently, Andrew and Elizabeth are on the front page of the Robin Hood website (
http://www.robinhood.ca).
