Hasta La Creative!

Em julho do ano passado, a Volkswagen anunciou que iria encerrar a produção da Kombi, o que de fato ocorreu no final do ano. Isso não aconteceu, entretanto, antes que o mítico veículo fosse coberto de todas as homenagens possíveis, em campanha criada pela AlmapBBDO. Agora, a agência assina um documentário dirigido por Fernando Gronstein Andrade, da Spray Filmes, que revela os últimos desejos do carro aposentado.

Com criação de Benjamin Yung Junior, Marcelo Tolentino, Marcelo Nogueira e Marcelo Pignatari Rosa – autores da campanha – o filme nos leva por uma emocionante jornada pessoal da Kombi, narrada em primeira pessoa. Coube à atriz Maria Alice Vergueiro emprestar sua voz ao veículo, que revela histórias compartilhadas ao longo de sete décadas. E, sem vergonha nenhuma, confessa que está muito “rodada”.

Os seis meses necessários para a produção do documentário se devem à herança deixada pela Kombi a algumas pessoas especiais para ela, não só no Brasil, mas também nos Estados Unidos – o designer Bob Hieronimous, que ajudou a fazer do veículo um dos símbolos da cultura hippie -, e na Holanda, onde vive Ben Pon Jr., filho do criador do carro, a quem ela chama de irmão.

Dê o play e prepare-se para a poeirinha que vai entrar nos seus olhos…

Electric vehicle maker Tesla Motors has made a big splash in China, grabbing the attention of Chinese media and car buyers and luring investors to companies that make EVs and EV components.

China’s media have closely watched Tesla’s progress in the United States and its efforts to sell the Model S electric sedan here.

Some Chinese journalists question whether Tesla can sustain its growth. But most admire the company’s innovative business model — selling the Model S through its own stores. And CEO Elon Musk drew kudos after his company declared a profit last year.

Full-service integrated marketing agency Neighbor Agency recently launched a campaign for Tillamook’s new line of Greek yogurt, Farmstyle Greek, which was led by the agency’s new creative director, Jodi Pierce, who began work with Neighbor Agency late last year.

The campaign, entitled “Slow and Steady Wins the Taste,” is “a digital-centric campaign that also includes out-of-home billboards, radio and experiential engagement through a sampling tour.” But Neighbor’s involvement began long before that, with the agency collaborating on “product development, ingredients, flavor profiles all the way to creative conception and execution of the campaign.”

Video vignettes introduce viewers to Tillamook’s Farmstyle Greek yogurt by showing simple recipes, rooted in the brand’s “slow and steady” philosophy, that complement the yogurt, like homemade granola and blueberry jam. It’s an interesting approach, one that emphasizes Tillamook as a lifestyle brand while providing viewers with information to better enjoy the product.

“We’re proud to debut the work that our creative team, and new Creative Director developed for Tillamook’s Farmstyle Greek Yogurt,” said Chad Seymour, CEO of Neighbor Agency. “The hire of Jodi is one that we took very seriously, and didn’t fill the position until we found the perfect fit for our agency, and our clients.”
