Power Vibe Studio: Before And After

Power Vibe Studio asked TBWA East Africa to create awareness for their new gym, and to convince people that their weight-loss strategies and special equipment could really build a difference in the physique and fitness of their potential clients. But they had to overcome the perception (even in Africa!) that all ads are retouched in Photoshop and therefore those images are no longer believable. The solution that TBWA proposed was a real-life “Before & After” demonstration showing the dramatic difference between a healthy & fit person – and someone not quite so fit! Two girls of quite different physiques were dressed identically and walked side-by-side through local shopping areas. As they passed, their T-shirts read “Before” and “After” on the back, with the “After” shirt carrying the gym logo and the slogan “build a difference”. Surprised onlookers had a bit of a chuckle. And quite a few of them asked for more information, with intentions of joining the programme.

WWF Earth Hour: Website Works In The Dark

In Turkey awareness and participation of Earth Hour still remains as a big issue. Some people are not interested at all; others who seem to be interested are not willing to spend one long hour in the dark. And today people in general are not willing to do any kindness without waiting anything in return. We needed to motivate people by showing them that no good intent in life remains unrewarded and spending one hour in the dark may not be that boring after all. We prepared a big surprise that can only be experienced during Earth Hour. The idea behind it was to reward people for their participations. People who switch off and enter our web site during Earth Hour had the chance to watch surprise videos from 22 top celebrities. The content of the videos were quite exciting since celebrities did performances that they never did before.
