With AB-extras, Anheuser-Busch invites adult consumers to get up close and personal with the people (and Clydesdales) that make up its highly anticipated Budweiser and Bud Light commercials.
The social media dashboard and newsroom offers a visual journey through the human side of Super Sunday’s ads. It uses exclusive pictures, videos, and interviews to tell the story behind “Generations,” a touching commercial that features a modern Clydesdale’s journey from Scottish farmlands to the Budweiser hitch.
Ab-extras’s Social Media Rooms brings together conversations that are transpiring across multiple social networks (including Flickr, YouTube, Twitter, and FriendFeed) into a single view. It gives a place for the Bud community to participate and interact with each other, as well as the faces behind the global brand.
