Wild Like Us / 野如我们

Beats By Dre

We created the Chinese New Year campaign for Beats By Dre to celebrate the Year of the Pig.

The traditional zodiac characterization of the pig stands in stark contrast to the youth of China today.

A pig is cute, lazy, kept in a pen, simple, docile…it is prey. China’s youth certainly aren’t pigs.

For this campaign, we told the story of this bold generation not via the pig, but rather via the boar…the pig’s renegade cousin. A boar is full of energy, proactive, free, untamed, brave, fierce, ambitious. It is a predator; it is wild!

The 野如我们 (WILD LIKE US) tagline we developed for the campaign riffs on the 野 character (which means “wild”) in the Chinese word for boar (“野猪”) which literally translates to “wild pig”.

野如我们 “WILD LIKE US” celebrates China’s young generation; a generation bravely moving creative culture forward, fearlessly expressing itself, and, simply put, hell bent on living a wild, carefree lifestyle. For those who aren’t already on board, the campaign was a call to action to join the movement.


为了庆祝2019中国新年的到来,我们为Beats By Dre品牌创作了猪年迎新主题创意内容。

当下的中国年轻人与传统生肖中猪的形象大相径庭。

“猪”给人的概念总是可爱的,被动的,简单的,温顺的。它们被圈养,是猎物。而中国年轻人并非如此。

这次我们希望通过对比“家猪”和“野猪”来讲述一个大胆的新一代的“野”性故事。“野猪”是狂野的,主动的,自由的,勇敢的。它们能量满满,雄心勃勃,是捕猎者。

“野如我们”从“野”出发,阐述展现了“野猪”的特性。

通过“野如我们”这一主题概念,我们将这一群新不走寻常路的新兴人类推至聚光灯下,将他们大胆推动文化前进,无畏表达自我,无所顾虑的“野性”特质展现出来。


Product Design

To support the campaign, we designed a Special Edition Beats Solo3 Wireless product.

The product features an obscured boar head created with clean, abstract, modern line-art. The boar head presents a fierce, brave expression that captures the attitude and outlook of today’s young generation. The white and grey colorway was chosen to be anything but the expected reds associated with Chinese New Year. The gold hits are a nod to holiday wishes of good fortune and prosperity.

We also designed the retail packaging for the product, as well as a special, limited-edition VIP packaging set.

The product is available online and in-store throughout Asia.


我们也为这次的主题内容设计了Beats Solo3特别限量版耳机。

产品侧身以简练,抽象并富现代感线条构成野猪头的形象。野猪头表达了一种无畏勇敢的精神,捕捉了当今年轻一代的态度。以白与灰的色彩搭配替代中国新年惯用的传统红色,再加以象征财源广进的金色点缀使其与众不同。

我们还同时为该产品设计了零售店版包装,及限量版VIP包装。

该款产品已在官网发售,也可在亚太地区的店铺内购买。

We created a spot for adidas Originals’ I_5923 (previously known as Iniki) sneaker line. The piece celebrates Iniki’s hybrid of past and present DNA by boldly presenting a visual clash between retro 70s styling and modern footwear technology (Boost). The piece positions Iniki at the intersection of culture and style, highlighting a pure symbiosis of authentic form and modern functionality.


我们为阿迪达斯的三叶草I_5923系列(原Iniki)创作了一条宣传短片。该片大胆采用了复古的70年代风和现代鞋类科技(Boost技术)进行视觉冲撞,以此体现lniki过去与现在所续DNA,从而突显出Inik本身所代表的文化与风格定位,强调了其原型和当代功能性的结合。

Liu Wen x Basket Heart – New York City

Puma

 

无法观看?前往优酷

The original PUMA Basket was a legend in the ’70s hip-hop scene and the court classic has been given a makeover via the all-new PUMA Women’s Basket Heart. The new sneaker hails a long-standing sports heritage with a nod to feminine sentiments in its satin ribbon bow laces.

For the sneaker’s launch in China, we created a campaign featuring international celebrity supermodel Liu Wen. The campaign was shot on the streets of New York City, with Liu Wen doing her thing as she showed us the city she now calls home.

The video and photo assets were used online, in print media, and in brand retail stores throughout Greater China. Within just a few days of airing online the video had garnered more than 10 million views.


全新上市的PUMA Basket Heart女子系列源自风靡70年代嘻哈流行圈的经典PUMA Basket鞋型,该系列运动鞋不但延续了运动元素更是加入了较为女性化的绸缎宽鞋带。

为迎合该鞋款在中国的上市,我们为其创作了一支以超模刘雯为主角的短片,在短片中以刘雯的视角带领我们游走于纽约这个被她称为家的城市之中。

该短片及平面照片被广泛运用于中国地区的网络,平面媒体及品牌店铺中,短片上线后的短短几天内已产生超过千万的浏览量。

We launched a new experimental brand for Coca Cola called Yo! Tea (唷! 茶). The flavored-tea brand embodies the free spirited attitudes of China’s post-90 & 00’s generation and riffs on the recent explosion of street / hip-hop culture throughout Greater China.

Our work for Yo! Tea is ongoing as the brand tests the market and continues to grow, but to date, deliverables have focused mainly on packaging design, copywriting, OOH and POS key visual advertisements, as well as a variety of internal strategy and branding efforts.


我们为可口可乐品牌全新推出的实验品牌 – 唷! 茶的上市提供了全方位创意支持。近两年该多风味茶饮料在大中华区以嘻哈街头风为卖点以表达中国90后00后的新生代大学生放飞自我、无拘无束的自由精神。

在品牌初期上市和扩张期,我们为唷! 茶的创意内容产出尚在不断增加,迄今为止,我们主要负责其全线产品包装设计、文案创作、户外广告、门店主视觉硬广以及各种内部策略推广物料。

FACE YOUR FIERCE / 天生无束

Abercrombie & Fitch

We created a campaign for Abercrombie & Fitch titled FACE YOUR FIERCE, featuring Chinese pop star and motorcycle racer Wang Yibo.

Outside influences, others’ opinions, societal labels—none of these are reasons not to live life to the fullest. Being young means taking risks and chasing dreams, but too many young people today faced with a challenge or trying something new are paralyzed by fear. They second-guess themselves and don’t realize what they’re capable of.

Others, like Wang Yibo, know that the future belongs to the fierce and fearless. He’s at the top of his game in music and motorcycle racing, but he isn’t afraid of stepping into unfamiliar terrain, like skateboarding. He may be a novice, but he doesn’t let that stop him, and after every scrape and spill, Yibo just dusts himself off and tries again. He tunes out the naysayers telling him to stick to what he knows, because for him, the challenge is the allure. Failure is just a pitstop on the road to success. His story inspires young people to be to their fullest selves and tap into their fierceness as a way to overcome self-doubt, try new things, and ignore the critics.

The campaign ran in nationwide online / offline media, retail outlets, e-commerce platforms, and select brand events.


“天生无束”是我们为 Abercrombie & Fitch 创设的广告案例,由中国流行歌星和摩托手王一博代言。

外界的论点,大众的眼光,社会的标签——这些都不应是束缚自己的理由。年轻,意味着冒险和追逐梦想。但当下有太多年轻人,在面对挑战或尝试新事物的时候,会被恐惧所支配。只有当他们回看的时候才会意识到自己的能力。

但还有另一批人,就像王一博,他们知道未来属于无所畏惧的人。王一博在音乐和摩托车比赛中名列前茅,但他并不害怕踏入不熟悉的领域——比如滑板。在这个领域他是个新手,可什么都不能阻止他的步伐,每一次刮擦和跌倒后,王一博拍一拍身上的尘土,就从头再来。他让所有的反对者都刮目相看,因为对他来说,挑战本身就是最大的吸引力:失败只是通往成功之路上的一块垫脚石。他的故事激励新生代充分发挥自己,克服自我怀疑、尝试新事物,忽略那些指指点点的看客。

该套物料内容被广泛应用于线上社交媒体,天猫,品牌店铺及线下活动。

The print campaigns were featured in print media, OOH, and point-of-sale executions throughout Greater China.

Chinese New Year is a season ripe with possibilities and perspectives. We celebrated these with a campaign for ESPRIT featuring actress Zhou Dongyu that showcases a new generation of women and a new concept of femininity in China (“新“ 女性).

ESPRIT & Zhou Dongyu work together to champion “新“ 女性, a movement inspiring women to pursue their purpose, passion, and lifestyle with confidence, regardless of what’s expected of them.

The campaign was promoted via a collaboration with video platform Douyin(known for its fun dance skits), where target consumers were engaged to share short clips about how they are redefining themselves and empowering their “new woman” in the new year (dance moves optional, but encouraged!)

We also created a print campaign of seasonal looks with Zhou Dongyu.


更多可能和更新的视角随着中国新年的到来而展开。我们借此为ESPRIT创作一组由演员周冬雨诠释新时代女性的名为“新“ 女性的宣传内容。

ESPRIT与周冬雨合作联合发起了一场号召女性要自信热情,大胆逐梦,并活出自我的“新”女性活动。

在该宣传内容期间,我们通过以分享有趣舞蹈而著称的短视频软件平台 – “抖音”进行视频内容的投放合作,呼吁消费者分享她们在新的一年想要成为哪种“新”女性的故事及美好夙愿。

我们也同时为品牌合作艺人- 周冬雨创作了一组当季产品的宣传平面广告。

Courage, Strength, & Honor

Converse

In celebration of the Year of the Rooster, we developed an innovative HTML 5 WeChat game for Converse that incorporated the seasonal campaign’s core storytelling values: Courage, Strength, and Honor.

In the game, players actions help the Rooster King successfully navigate three different worlds to win back stolen feathers representing Courage, Strength, and Honor. The game content employs live-shot characters, origami paper-mache, and stop-motion animation to create surreal visual worlds for players to traverse in under two minutes while competing with friends to win a secret “fortune.” Styling of characters was done with seasonal Chinese New Year apparel line.

The overall game design showcases our ability to imagine and deliver an immersive world in which a target consumer engages in a memorable, seasonally-relevant brand experience.


为庆祝农历鸡年,我们为Converse打造了一款被应用于微信的H5游戏,在游戏的设计中我们融合了其当季产品的主题:勇,力,傲。

在这款游戏中,让玩家帮助鸡王在三个不同的空间中找回分别代表勇,力,傲的三根羽毛,游戏制作中结合了实拍人物形象,手工折纸和定格动画,以打造出一个虚拟的视觉空间,玩家有两分钟的时间来挑战游戏,同时会有赢得”神秘礼品”的机会。游戏中所出现的动画形象均身着当季产品。

整个游戏的设计展示了我们的想象力和创造力,也让品牌受众得到了一个身临其境的难忘体验。
