Canal Plus: AiMen


Online
Canal Plus

For the launch of the CANAL+ Young Pope series, we wanted to promote Pius XIII, a modern yet ultra conservative pope played by Jude Law. We created AiMEN by programming the artificial intelligence IBM Watson to the image of this pope so that he could express himself in real time on social networks. It answers users in a contextualized way by only quoting verses from the Bible when they go too far or are contrary to the morals of Pius XIII.

CDOT

Simply buckling up could have saved 60 Coloradans in 2016. To show what this number means, CDOT and Amélie created 60 reflective yellow memorial wreaths and placed them one after another on Bandimere Speedway. We gathered footage of the installation and created a video that included an interview with CDOT’s traffic safety manager who pointed out that the seat belt usage rate in Colorado is 84%, well below the national average. Holger Forrest also spoke out in the video for seat belt safety as his family lost their daughter last year in a car accident, and had she been wearing her seat belt she would have lived. To push our efforts out even further, we turned seat belts into awareness ribbons. They overlaid the seat belt ribbon onto photos of severely wrecked cars and pushed them out on social. The drivers and passengers of these cars all survived the crashes because they were wearing their seat belts. This campaign helped prove to people that seat belts make survivors.

LG: Bring Cinema Home


Media
LG

For the launch of LG’s 2017 range of OLED and SUPER UHD TVs, LG Australia briefed their agency Tonic to develop a high impact integrated campaign challenging Australians to experience cutting edge advancements in TV technology for themselves.

Going up against big brands such as Samsung and Sony, LG needed an innovative and motivating communication strategy that both challenged and educated the consumer in an entertaining way. With both TVs representing a major leap forward in picture and sound quality, Tonic and LG agreed that the campaign should focus on the amazing cinematic experience they would bring to Australian homes.

The campaign was driven by the call to action, ‘BRING CINEMA HOME’ and launched in Sydney’s CBD with the construction of a highly realistic pop-up cinema and the promise of an unforgettable red carpet experience for visitors. Social posts in the days leading up to the event encouraged people to pay the cinema a visit and share their experiences online.

On the day, a promo team dressed as ushers handed out popcorn and flyers and directed people to their seats inside the cinema. A short screening then focused attention on the cinematic qualities and new technology built into the OLED and SUPER UHD TVs. After each performance, viewer’s candid, unscripted responses were filmed in preparation for a TV campaign and online content.
