Brand Spanking New

Storylines instead of Borderlines

Feature

David Zheng, Founder of Hong Kong based NewWebPick.com
invited me to participate in ‘Crossover Design’, the first printed Form
of the NewWebPick Electronic Magazine. I’m delighted to be featured
in this Interview and more than a little proud to be represented
by these Images.

‘‘Crossover’ is not only a trendy Expression in the international Fashion Community
but has also conquered the Design World with its incomparable Magnetism. Designers
have crossed over from their customary Field of Expertise to a new Design Field, and
created a sparkling and magnetic Feeling by blending Elements that either had nothing
to do with one another, or at odds and, even completely opposed at Times.’

Volkswagen is launching a global MicroSite to support their Cross-Media ‘BlueMotion Technologies’ Campaign. We’ve developed a storytelling Approach that follows three Drivers in three international Cities who are given Advice about environmentally aware Driving and Cost Saving on their Way through heavy Road Traffic. The biggest Challenge: How do we connect the three Stories authentically with each other but without going beyond our Budget for the Job.
Spark

We found a Solution in creating Filmic Compositions that are made of High Resolution Photographic Images. Shooting in Berlin, Munich based Photographer Frank Bauer took three stunning, greatly atmospheric Series, which Art Directors Heiko Keppel and Corinna Vidic then mounted in a reduced Layout employing Split-Screen Technique and Animation Dramaturgy.

Fail Gracefully

Speaking at OFFF
Spark

I was flattered to be asked to speak alongside Judd Labarthe, Executive Planning Director at argonauten G2, at OFFF Festival 2009. On this special Occasion we shared a few of the best argonauten Stories. Where our Ideas come from, how we help them grow, how we protect them from Monsters. In short how we find the Golden Fleece and bring it home, again and again.

‘This Year, Openroom will showcase nine astonishing Artists: Brazilian Art Director, Illustrator and Graphic Designer Xtrabold, cutting edge Live-Action/Animation Director Kobayashi, Digital Conceptualist Andrew Richardson, Electronic Musician and Digital Artist Ivan Franco, Visual Artist Rudolfo Quintas, German exceptional multi-channel Projects and Best Brand Network Interaction Specialists argonauten G2, Interactive Installation’s Developers YMYI/You Move You Interact, Graphic Designer and Rising Star MWM Graphics and Oslo based Design Agency Bleed, one of the most awarded Agencies in Norway.’

OFFF 09, Oeiras, Lisbon, Portugal. 7/8/9 May 2009.

‘This isn’t Flying! This is falling with Style! Fail Gracefully at OFFF!’ - was the Motto of this Year’s Conference. I quite like this Quote from ‘Toy Story’, it reminds me on Christoph Schlingensief’s Slogan ‘Scheitern als Chance!’. Despite the amazing Line-Up of Speakers including Paula Scher, Stefan Sagmeister und Neville Brody, for me the Event failed in a crucial Respect: the technical Set-Up and Support.

Having been asked by ‘Internet World’ Magazine {Germany’s leading Business Technology Trade Magazine} to contribute an Article about a relevant global Top Campaign of my Choice I decided to go for ‘Alles Gleich Schwer’ - the latest Collaboration between the World’s most iconic Spirits Brand and Fashion Icon Helmut Lang as Part of Absolut’s larger ‘In An Absolut World’ Visionaries Campaign.

The Show is over. Just like a ‘real’ institutional Art Exhibition, the Online Virtual Show was on View only for short Period of Time. The good News is though that limited Edition Prints of some of the Posters are still available, each of them branded with the User’s individual IP Address. Get yourself an original ‘Lang’!

The most fanatical Supporters of the best Symphony Orchestra in the World live in the United States and East Asia, where Concerts and entire Tours are sold-out Years in advance. So, why not built a Digital Concert Hall - as a Substitute for the confined Space - that offers existing and new classical Music Lovers around the World to discover a unique Experience of Live-Streaming Concerts in the highest possible Quality? A great Honour for us to take on such an innovative and creative Challenge for this exciting Brand. The first specialised Online Classic Portal, Live and in Full-HD.

The basic Idea for both the Layout and Motion Aesthetics of the Application derive from a Realtime Concert Experience and encounter with Hans Sharoun’s complex yet balanced, democratic and timeless architectural Work. Quoting Max Frisch: ‘I feel guided as if walking through a Labyrinth, - guided, not lost – guided by the Spirit of the Space itself. Guided by the Pleasure that unfolds. […] beguilingly guided by the Architect’s Wit.’

The Brand JUVENA was past its Peak, and we were called to rescue the falling Star and bring it back to Light. Our secret Weapon: ‘MasterCream’, the newest Development from Beiersdorf, an exclusive, premium-quality and high-priced skin-rejuvenating Care Cosmetic.

To ensure the Brand’s strategic Repositioning, we initially put a multi-channel Launch Campaign for ‘MasterCream’ into Action. For the Client’s internal sales Purposes, we developed an Image Spot that stunningly demonstrates the Brand’s Evolution from Past/Dark to Now/Spark. The Pace of the Spot is determined by Thorsten Minning’s dramatic Sound Design.

We set out to re-shape the Jewel Brand of the Beauty Industry and eventually won over La Prairie’s Interactive Marketing Budget. The general Approach was to create a fresh, clean state-of-the-art Design that implies Credibility, Precision and Attention to Detail like a Swiss Clockwork. Its true seductive Magic, however, unfolds beneath the Surface. The Images were created in Cooperation with the Berlin based Photographer Attila Hartwig.

A tough, two-stage Beauty Contest that kept us in Suspense for more than five Months. The most fascinating Aspect: In the second Stage we were challenged to a Layout Duel by a French Agency highly rewarded in the Beauty and Fashion Industry. The Decision eventually did go in our Favour though, because of the genuine Look and the understanding we showed towards the Brand’s Requests. According to La Prairie: ‘The best One won!’

Our Assignment seemed simple enough at first: to bring the new German Fanta Campaign ‘Drink Fanta, live more colorfully’ to life on the Web.
But we knew that bringing more Color into the real Lives of our Users would take more Effort than just splashing some Orange around. Besides, we wanted to do more.
So we claimed the entire digital Space as Fanta’s Playground. We built multiple Platforms: a Microsite on MySpace, a Homepage Takeover on bravo.de, and of course a Campaign Annex on fanta.de. Rounding out our Multi-Platform Approach were Newsletters and a massive Banner Campaign.
Dark
As is so often the Case in a World where the Digital Agency gets briefed only after the Ad Campaign has already been invented somewhere else, we were tasked to make the global Idea work in Germany and gave Tonality, Setting and Characteristics of the Story a clever Twist for the Requirements of our Market.

Ogilvy/PSYOP developed a Storytelling Campaign for the Relaunch of Coke’s second largest international Brand Fanta. We pitched successfully for Digital Ideas that local Fanta Markets could choose from individually. Our Mission seemed clear: Winning the Battle for Imagination over the Enemy of Play! But we had to trade Plans with the Enemies of Play first, to develop a Toolkit to defeat them!

So we upgraded the briefed Toolkit and turned it into a Toykit. Creating a new World around some Manga-Style Characters, we managed to turn their amusing Stories into a wide Range of 3D Activities in which the Boldness of the Crew would spark the User’s Intelligence. Play On!

The visual Universe of the new global Brand Campaign ‘The Coke side of life’ is truly amazing - a mind-blowing TVC {‘Happiness Factory’ by Wieden/PSYOP} and the illustrative Sixties Splash Style developed by AKQA. But the Question now was how to combine such solitary Components and turn them into a seamless, digital Experience for German Coke Fans?

‘Best Online Adaptation of a Coke Campaign and first international Trial of a Commercial Use of a Web 2.0-platform in the Coke Universe.’ Mark Greatrex, SVP Marketing Communications and Insights

‘Long-term Brand Platform offering Opportunities way beyond your average integrated One-Off, incorporating Music, Art and Online.’ Contagious 13

‘Freedom within a Framework’ was our Motto. A Firework of dynamic Contents alongside a subtle Animation Concept paid off and made the Site not merely a Success but a Master Sample for various local Market Adaptations.

Seen as a global Language, Football can at its best turn Enemies into Opponents.
After pitching successfully, we were given the challenging Task to play a Part in contributing to the transnational Identity with the Online Campaign ‘WE ALL SPEAK FOOTBALL’. The Aim was to establish Coke as Fan-Brand Number One at the FIFA WM™ 2006.

The Fans and their Enthusiasm are at the Core of the Campaign - both in Form and Content. Drawing on a highly aesthetical visual Language that works on an emotional Level but abandons national Stereotypes or Clichés, we allowed for a multi-ethnic Response that reflected and appreciated the universal Passion for the Sport. Developed in eleven different Languages, the global Rollout was composed of ten Modules for sixty markets.

A Collaboration between Jan Pautsch.Lilienthal, Veysel Oender {Amok} and Roman März.

“‘THE BLACK HIT OF SPACE’ is an Experiment, an experimental Design Set Up in order to find out what emerges from the close Collaboration between a Photographer, an Ex-Writer and an Artist. What happens, if three individual forms of artistic Expression co-occupy a Space? And, what if the title ‘THE BLACK HIT OF SPACE’ serves as the Inspiration to the Project? The Outcome is a room-encompassing Installation - both attacking and absorbing. An interplay of Forces, that distinctively continues in our further Projects.”

“The Magic that derives from electronic Devices within the Process of creating Reality - including Art - is reduced on the Surface and, eventually, obliterated. Taking apart the Object’s visual and functional Integrity, the Artist equally causes the Disappearance of some sort of semantic Profile. Lilienthal’s Cut isolates the Spectator from the visual Experience by using a Rewind-Mode. One can’t see, or can hardly see, anything. At this crucial Point, the Artist [such as Siegfried and Roy] tries to catch all the People within the Audience who do not believe in Magic.”

  During the late 1990s, I created different  Interventional  
  & Spatial Works
, which were solely based on graphical,  
  context related Structures. Working as a Digital Creative in Advertising 
  for over nine Years now, however, I have been able to collaborate on a broad Range  
  of high profile Interactive Design Projects. In my current position as  
  Creative Director at argonauten G2 [Grey Global Group] in Berlin, I develop and supervise
 
  Digital Campaigns for various Big Brand Clients.  
  Within the Scope of Global Rollouts we cooperate closely with Agencies all over the World, such as London based Mother  
  and AKQA, Wieden+Kennedy in Amsterdam, North Kingdom in Stockholm as well as PSYOP and Ogilvy & Mather in New York.
 

  Most recent Campaigns for Brands such as Red Coke [The Coke side of life]  
  and Fanta [Play on!] provide an
ideal Playground for  
  a Variety of Artistic Influences, Experimentation  
  and Interpretation.  

  Hence, I enjoy having the great Opportunity to be able to combine my personal  
  Art Projects,
Past or Future, with Concepts for Commercial Applications.  
  Both Areas overlap and benefit from one another. Artistic Gestures assist in various Ways  
  to solve conceptual Problems of Digital Branding,
and vice versa.
