“Better Technology, Better Life”
Picked this one up via Littleredbook; it’s a Phillips campaign recently launched by DDB Shanghai, in conjunction with Shanghai Expo and the theme “Better City, Better Life”. Philips isn’t the first one who shows the world through the eyes of a child. This is a route thats been done before by many giants; normally when the product isn’t at the forefront of day-to-day life, the easiest, most relevant default is to go for kids.
Philips used a relevant and clever strategic to grab the attention of the parents who aspire for a better life, not necessarily for themselves, but rather a bright(er) future for their kids. The traditional ads where the aggregation of the 4.4 min during online video ad.. It’s amazing to see. Watch the video here

It’s in our nature

Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts have launched a global brand campaign with the tagline: “It’s in our nature.” Created by Ogilvy & Mather, Hong Kong, the campaign is meant to express the hotel group’s dedication to hospitality and service. Most hotels & resorts use similar ideas by showing lobbies, chandeliers and smiling faces. This way of advertising is conventional to the industry. Shangri-La has created a smart classic story that shows the value of genuine kindness, something that is very relevant in today’s society. The story is about a brave hero that travels. He faces adversaries and obstacles – he crosses mountains in adverse weather. These elements are there to represent the experience of travel thrown from pillar to post in alien cities and cultures, and even in the surrounds of a five-star hotel, feeling alone and miles away from home. This idea of thinking and feeling is cool and stands from the rest. (Via Media.asia)

Tropicana brings the sun
Agency BBDO Toronto aptured the monumental raising of the sun in Inuvik – both literally and figuratively – for a series of documentary-style commercials, which will be featured prominently in the new campaign ““Brighter Mornings for Brighter Days”. The effect was tremendous for the 3,500 residents which have lived without a sunrise (or sunlight for that matter) for 31 days previous, but I have my doubts if the audince see the Association between the sun and the brand Tropicana. I’m curious towards the next commercials and keep you posted.
