Fruit Snacks - Big Smack

In this integrated campaign for General Mills, Buck partnered with Saatchi & Saatchi to develop a whole new world full of original characters, all made of Fruitsnacks. Creating four launch spots, and content for Fruitsnackia.com, the campaign features the antics of three young trouble-makers, Larry, Linus, and Lloyd (Gusher, Fruit by the Foot, and Fruit Rollup respectively).
