If you can't say it, sing it

Ogilvy, one of the top advertising agencies in the world, has been creating impact for brands through iconic, culture-changing, value-driving ideas for over 75 years. Milka, one of the most beloved and recognizable chocolate brands, hired Ogilvy to create a campaign centered around 48% of Gen Z being uncomfortable sharing their feelings.

To help share their feelings, Ogilvy and Milka took inspiration from an old Dutch proverb, “If you can’t say it, sing it.” That’s why they partnered with Snelle, one of Gen Z’s favorite Dutch rappers, to create the campaign “Let Snelle Sing It for You.” Within minutes, anyone can make a custom song using his voice, appearance, and unique writing style. All they have to do is buy a Milka bar, scan the code, and write down their emotions.

The campaign utilized three AI engines. OpenAI creates lyrics in Snelle’s signature style, Uberduck clones his voice, and HeyGen produces life-like videos with flawless lip synchronization. Together, they craft an experience that is engaging, personal, and touching.
