Rolling Stone Draws Inspiration from Steve Jobs to Target Argentinean Youth
Posted in: UncategorizedWhile Apple continues releasing new products and services (for better or worse), the spirit of Steve Jobs continues to loom large–not just over the company he co-founded but the media landscape as a whole.
In an effort to pay homage to the late tech giant and inspire a new generation of Argentinean youngsters in the process, Rolling Stone magazine, with the help of Miami/Buenos Aires-based agency The Community (formerly la comunidad), launched a campaign with a simple imperative: Question Everything.
In this :90 second spot, life’s questions, from the mundane to the, well, less mundane, are posed via voiceover by an army of bespectacled, black turtleneck-clad “Steves” in the hopes that the answers will provoke viewers to change the world. Or something.
Like Jobs himself, the ultimate question that agency and magazine propose, no matter what the topic, is “could this be simpler?” It’s a clever and timely ad considering Apple’s big WWDC event this week.
