What do the
people want now?

“The crisis has amplified the brand purpose narrative.”

Ian Murray, The Drum

“Doing good” is a source of competitive advantage for brands as the crisis unfolded, and in the post-Covid world that followed.

What do the
people want now?

“Cause Marketing is deeper and more than a simple campaign.”

Meredith Ferguson, DOSomething

Marketers are missing the mark. They’re struggling with putting the ideals of cause marketing into practice as brands focus on individual campaigns and not deeper meaning.

What do the
people want now?

“Purpose is a critical insurance policy.”

Ian Schafer, CEO Kindred

An authentic, well communicated purpose also does something else. It creates the benefit of the doubt in the minds of young consumers when something inevitably goes wrong.

our work
INTEGRATEDEXPERIMENTALAPP-BUILDINGDIGITAL EXPERIENCESOCIAL ACTIVATION

Integrated

Nissan

Heisman House

10 years running, NISSAN’s Heisman House is ESPN’s largest brand integration to date.

Huggies

Meeting Murilo

The ultrasound exam is when a pregnant woman first meets her baby. To show that Huggies stands besides mothers in every challenge they face, we allowed visually impaired moms-to-be to live the same irreplaceable experience using a 3D printer.

Experimental

Ford

Feel the View

Created for Ford Italy, ’Feel The View' is a new device, that when installed on a car window, is able to encode landscapes seen from the road, allowing visually impaired people to experience the Italian countryside with the tips of their fingers.

Zwift

Fun is Fast

Indoor cycling is all the rage at the moment. Aimed at eliminating the excruciating boredom of simply sitting on the trainer and staring at the wall, Zwift has exploded in popularity since its release when launched an online cycling game and training program that enables users to ride, train and compete in a virtual world.

App-Building

Mustang

Make it Personal

What better way to introduce the most customizable Mustang ever than by giving fans the ability to make their car as unique as themselves. Built entirely within Facebook API, the “Pony Personalizer” gave owners the ability to design their very own, one-of-a-kind Mustang badges and put them where they belong, on the front of their cars, and on hoodies, hats, T-shirts, mugs, and more.

Giraffas

The Goal Screen

To drive consumers to Giraffas Fast Food during the Brazilian World Cup, we created a mobile game that made their phone screens able to recognize the touch of a paper ball turning trays into a virtual soccer field. It could only be played at the chain's restaurants.

Digital Experience

Humans Right Watch

Candle Lights

For the last 40 years, over 1017 indigenous women and girls in Canada have been murdered. Another 164 went missing and were never found. To help create awareness about this issue, Human Rights Watch developed a digital campaign to target Government leaders to be aware and prevent violence against women.

Shell

Stock Car Transformer

To promote a regular ethanol that turned into the official fuel of the Stock Car series and bring the thrill from race tracks to a gas station, we turned a regular gas station into an optical illusion that transformed consumers’ vehicles into stock cars live and real-time.
