Absolutely superb presentation from Flavio Vidigal (Firstborn) about creativity and working on briefs. Chinese VW cases and especially Intel x Toshiba collaborative campaign are must.

7. A task that have
to be
accomplished.
It’s that type of briefing when the client
needs something specific. Something
they already know what they’re looking
for. It can be a banner, a film, a print
ad, a game...an APP...whatever.

8. — Briefing —
Create a series of
casual games
that lives in a hub
and can be used
as media.
9. — Insight —
Despite the intention of being an
extreme sports kinda guy. Our
target audience doesn’t do it for
real.
How can we give them an
experience that embraces that
spirit in digital world?
11. Little bit more challenging.
But how can we add even more
flesh into this bone?
12. We mashed up
different extreme
sports in order
to create new ones.
13. — Briefing —
Create an APP
that’s engaging
enough and help
us to build a
behavioral data
base.
14. — Insight —
When it comes to cars stories, who
doesn't remember the Hollywood
productions which caught millions of
hearts since the 80's?
Herbie the Bug, Knight Rider,
Transformers etc.
15. — Concept —
Volkswagen
TalkingCar™
The first application that
gives life to you car.
16. But if your car could talk…
…what would it say?
How would be its personality, behavior and interactions?

24. — Briefing —
Create an
Bandwidth
calculator to
educate
consumers
about their
internet usage.
25. — Insight —
Time Warner Cable had a perception
problem. The brand lacked a human
touch. It was all utility and no heart.
Reconnect Time Warner with its
customers by helping them answer their
most common question: “Why is my
Internet so slow?”
26. A simple bandwidth calculator could’ve
solved this problem, but we wanted to
create something
a bit... friendlier.
27. — Concept —
The
WiFi-Denti-Fier
The first bandwidth
calculator with a
heart.
28. We took the bare bones of a simple
questionnaire and hid them behind
a fun, interactive cartoon family.

36. Our in-house animation

created custom
solutions for each user
experience,
guaranteeing that
everything would work
perfectly.
37. t a k e w a y
No matter how boring and
straight forward the briefing
is...
......there’s always a way to push your ideas to a better spot.
38. A concept should
live everywhere.
It's a trendy thing among client,
ask for something that they
could apply in multiple channels.
However, integrated doesn't
mean 360, it can be. But not
necessarily.

39. — Briefing —
An integrated
campaign that
brings the
Think Blue
positioning to
China.
40. — The Challenge —
Volkswagen have globally
announced a new technology
called Blue Motion and want to
claim a ‘EcoFriendly’ territory in
China.
52. — Briefing —
Bring the Think
Blue concept to
the Earth Hour.
53. — From the Client —
To contribute with this
important act, Volkswagen will
turn off their thousands of
websites and
replace by a simple black
page with a message to the
world.
75. t a k e w a y
Sometimes the client think
they have a big idea.
...It’s time to turn that into something even bigger.
76. Planing a
creative road
map.
Many times the client doesn't
know how to implement the
brand's voice from a long term
stand point. It’s our job to say
out and loud what they need to
do.

77. After the People’s Car Project,
Volkswagen came to us with a big
question.
80. So we brought to the table
a plan for the next 5 years.
81.
82. t a k e w a y
Yes. We can change the
brand’s perception and we
can help them to shape their
future.
But let’s get their hearts first by doing whatever they want us to do.
83. Then I left China for joining
Firstborn here in NY.
84. It’s like a TV
show. But
branded and
multichannel.
Just because you have a concept
working in different mediums and
channels doesn’t mean you have a
storytelling campaign.

Storytellin
g
86. 1
What's the long term
story we want to tell?
Do we want to show the perfect hero stereotype from the
beginning? Or do we want build up the character and see
him evolving from an ordinary guy to a self-confident
persona grounded in the brand pillars strongly fleshed out
at the end?
87. 2
How can we break in
seasons and
episodes?
Can we create subplots to keep the story
entertaining/engaging sustain the brand awareness
up along the way?
88. 3
How do we think in
ways to connect
multiple channels to tell
our story?
Can we identify where our target
audience are and kick start our story from
there?
89. 4
Does the product
plays a deep role in
our story?
Or is just a secondary element that
helps to create our universe?
90. 5
Do we have
counselors guiding
our characters?
91. 6
How can we actually
bring the audience into
the story?
Would we be able to engage the consumers in
a co-creation process that they can feel proud
of by making our story something even bigger?
92. I hate doing this. But I’m so
jealous of this guys that I've
decided to show their stuff
instead of mine.
93. My friends from Perera O'dell put out
there one of the most impressive
branded entertainment cases that I’ve
ever seen.
100. t a k e w a y
You have to build a story that
people would share
spontaneously.
...even if it’s branded.
