campaign: twitter launch
client: the original donut shop coffee/ keurig

the original donut shop coffee had never tweeted, but also wanted to appear authentic to genzennials. so we made it seem as if the brand actually had been tweeting, but that 15 years of memes, jokes, and references had gotten "clogged" due to a technical error.
