Client:Wendy’s
Project:Wendy’s X DJ Khaled

What happens when you mix Wendy’s burgers, mini golf, Daytona 500 and DJ Khaled? Well, here's your answer!

Developing a vibrant, bold and fun series of looping animated films, the brief was to fill the screens of the Wendy’s x DJ Khaled drive-thru immersive experience, which took place as a pop-up attraction at this year’s Daytona 500, the first race of the NASCAR Cup series. Attendees could hop on a golf cart and speed through a tunnel of psychedelic visuals.

Honing in on some of DJ Khaled’s favourite pastimes–golf and hip-hop–we created nine mind-bending animations… DJ Khaled riding a giant golden key in a zero gravity field of Wendy’s burgers? Say less. A trippy mini golf course with liquid rainbows and flamingos? You got it. Underground trophy rooms to the glory of square patties and exuberant hip-hop producers? Allow me. Pools of golden burgers and golden golf balls? Don’t even ask.
