Problems/Challenges:
Sour Patch is a brand of soft candy created to bring happiness to everyone in the world on any days. However, during Valentine’s Day, single people seem to lack happiness as they are single and are unintentionally neglected.

The origin of the problems:
Obviously, because everywhere on earth has become a ‘space of love’. For example, on Social Media space, people send out love messages or show off their ‘lovey dovey’ relationship while many places arrange events for lovers and sells items for couples.

The Solutions:
Changing the space of love into the space of singleness to recover the happiness for the single people

The Executions:
The first time ever that Valentine’s Day for lovers is changed into the day of happiness for single people as we change the space of lovers to space for single people:
– Changing lover gift box to ‘single’ gift box: During Valentine’s Day, lover gift boxes are popular merchandise that can be found everywhere. So we change them into gift boxes for single people so that they can enjoy themselves during the time.
– Tricks for single people on social media: There are so many contents in social media providing tricks and tips on how to make Valentine’s Day perfect. What about single people? We change the Valentine theme contents with tricks about how to date happily to tricks about ‘how to survive Valentine’s Day happily’ instead.
– Changing Lover Theatre to ‘Single’ Theatre: Many lovers walk hand in hand into theatres during Valentine’s Day which make single people feel uncomfortable when they go to theatre too. So, Sour Patch will take them to watch the movie ‘Low Season’ (Thai movie of which name can be back translated as ‘Happy Single Day) so single people can be happy with their singleness and survive the romantic atmosphere in the theatres where lovers go to.

It’s not that no one enjoys reading. It’s that the process of reading is actually quite a bit tedious. We noticed that the love for literature has come at a price.

In some cases the desire to finish one more chapter or reach the end of the story gives way to blurry eyes or a tired head where the book ends up balanced on the top of your nose as you doze off to sleep. So how do you convince those who’ve given up on reading to reconsider it?

You show them that it’s easier when it’s not written.

This campaign recreates the sometimes tedious and eye-tiring experience of following printed type on a page and the call to action invites readers to ‘Just hear it instead’.

Political division is now in the media too, so biased reporting is becoming normalised. Naturally, people don’t believe the news anymore.

So we created a satirical series of posters that address the rise in biased reporting in today’s mainstream media. In these fictional obituaries, infamous dictators are made to seem positive, showing how half truths are lies too, and are just as dangerous as fake news.

In the notoriously tight regulations of the Canadian cannabis industry, there’s little brands can say about their products. So we developed a campaign that speaks for itself, highlighting Flowr’s approach by blending vibes of Rembrandt still lifes with precision scientific instruments.
