NEILSON INTRODUCING NEW CRISPY CRUNCH COUPLE
By Adnews Staff
Neilson-Cadbury of Toronto has chosen the new Crispy Crunch couple. The pair wil make their debut in commercials beginning March 10. The three candy bar spots were created by the Leo Burnett Company of Toronto and shot in Toronto. One commercial is set in an apartment, another in a laundry room and the third in a clothing store. Each continues the theme of one person trying to manipulate the other out of his or her fair share of the bar. Four thousand people tried for the parts, including singles, sisters, mothers-and-daughters and entire groups. Original auditions were made in front of Crispy Crunch Couple Cams set up in Cineplex-Odeon theatres across Canada between November and mid-January. The chosen pair are a man and a woman in their late 20s who have no acting experience. Their names will be announced on Thursday.
