California's Happy Cows Hit Airwaves in New Commercials.

California Milk Advisory Board Debuts Two New Spots This Fall

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO South San Francisco, city (1990 pop. 54,312), San Mateo co., W Calif.; inc. 1908. South San Francisco has several industrial parks; its manufactures include medical supplies and equipment, foods, paint, paper products, consumer goods, and clothing. , Calif. & MODESTO, Calif. -- Is it "moo" or "omm"?

Poking good-natured fun at a common California stereotype, this is the question posed by a new television advertising campaign featuring California's Happy Cows and a meditating, chanting duck. The new commercials for Real California Milk and Real California Cheese, which debut nationally this fall, portray the latest entertaining adventures of California cows.

In the first spot, titled "Meditation," Happy Cows Janice and Diane stumble upon a meditating duck and inform him that his technique is backwards - he needs to reverse his chant chant, general name for one-voiced, unaccompanied, liturgical music. Usually it refers to the liturgical melodies of the Byzantine, Russian Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and Anglican churches and is analogous to cantillation in Jewish liturgical music, Qur'anic chanting  to say "moo," not "omm." In the second commercial, titled "Bob," Bob the bull tries out a few shaky lines in French in order to impress the Happy Cows, claiming that he is a French bull. Bob is taken aback when he learns that the multitalented Happy Cows are fluent in French and have seen right through his antics antics

The popular Happy Cows advertising campaign is being expanded to support the new Real California Milk seal nationally. The television advertising will now close with a scene depicting the broad range of dairy products dairy products dairy nplproduits laitier

 produced in California and a new tagline: "Great milk comes from Happy Cows. Happy Cows come from California. Make sure it's made with Real California Milk."

"We use uniquely Californian storylines to help position our milk as uniquely Californian," explained Eric Hirshberg, Managing Partner and Executive Creative Director, Deutsch/LA. "Our strategy is to create an affinity for California dairy products." Deutsch/LA developed the Happy Cows campaign concept and has been creating the commercials since the campaign began.

Since their introduction in late 2000, the Happy Cows commercials have won numerous advertising awards for the California Milk Advisory Board (CMAB CMAB California Milk Advisory Board

) and have been an important part of the Real California Cheese promotional campaign that has increased visibility for California cheeses across the country. The CMAB will continue to promote Real California Cheese, and the cheese seal will continue to appear in advertising.

"The Happy Cows ads continue to score high with consumers across the country," said Michael Freeman Michael Roy Freeman (born 9 December 1960, London, England) is a New Zealand chess player. He emigrated to New Zealand in September 1967.
