Agency: The Brand Agency PLAY THE SPOT Volkswagen: Unfail Recently, 33 million people saw a heart-stopping viral video starring a runaway tyre... that turned out to be an ad for Volkswagen safety. See, the VW Polo is packed with safety technology. But that doesn't excite our younger audience. So we found a way into their social feeds by creating a fail video, with a twist: we removed the fail. We leaked it online with a careful media strategy â and it went viral. Dozens of international publications and 33 million views later, we revealed it was actually a cheeky ad â retargeting the same audience with more information. Agency: DDB SydneyVIEW THE CASE STUDY  There is a slight difference between listening and hearing. So slight that most of the people around you canât even distinguish it. Only those who matter can.

We are just there to help them.Agency: Saatchi & Saatchi, Sofia VIEW THE FIRST SPOT VIEW THE SECOND SPOT  The word âstepmotherâ, is filled with prejudice. It invokes the universal imaginary of the witchy mother, the evil female figure often portrait in childrensâ literature and movies. However, assuming that all stepmothers are evil is just a misleading stereotype. Throughout the world, there are certainly a lot of stepmothers who put a great amount of time, attention and love raising stepchildren as if they were their own. These women have the enormous ability to accommodate in their hearts, not only their biological children, but also children from other women.Agency: J.

The spot journeys on to the disco era in the 70s where JBL monitors were a studio staple, to the 90s where we see JBL car speakers blaring out Salt Nâ Peppaâs âShoop,â - then finally the timeline takes us to the present, ending the journey on the voice activated JBL Link.VIEW THE SPOT  The residents of Green Bay know a thing or two about The Frozen Tundra. And when the white stuff sticks and the wind howls, citizens hearty and heartfelt know it is time for the Dig Out at Lambeau Field. Lambeauâs âThe Frozen Tundraâ nickname was inspired by the Ice Bowl between the Packers and the Dallas Cowboys in 1967. Itâs kismet, perhaps, that Dallas-based Lucky Post contributed to the new Dickies campaign that pays homage to an annual act of team love by a Wisconsin town where football legend lives as true and strong as a winterâs chill. The film commissioned by Dickies and created by Rabbit Foot, was edited by Lucky Postâs Sai Selvarajan with color artistry by Neil Anderson.VIEW THE SPOT Strange Brew: Refresh Your Inner Genius To launch the new Sparkling Coffee drink - Strange Brew in Australia, we were asked to create a combination of stills and animation for print and online digital to promote their brand.

November 28, 2018 07:02 (Edited: February 17, 2023 04:19)
 AnalogFolk is proud to support the Coalition for Reform in Political Advertising in creating and launching its first consumer campaign demanding government legislation to stop lies in political advertising. The impactful creative uses language and iconography from fairy tales to make the point that fictional claims should have no place in political campaigning, and uses the tagline 'It's time to separate the real from the make believe'. The campaign is running across social media, online and across outdoor sites and encourages viewers to sign a petition at change.org/p/reformpoliticalads that demands legislative change. Executions include Theresa May looking like a pantomime villain, with the headline: "Families pay 1000 more tax a year since the evil curse befell the kingdom." and Jeremy Corbyn dressed as Little Red Riding Hood carrying the headline "10,000 more jobs have been created under the magic rock in the forest."VIEW RED RIDING HOOD OUTDOOR VIEW DRAGON OUTDOOR VIEW QUEEN OUTDOOR DURACELL: Don't Forget The Duracell The Duracell Bunny follows Santa around the rooftops on Christmas Eve.

In honor of this we got the chance to design a national stamp. The stamp had to embody all missing children, without losing the emotional side of these stories. So we started off from the central excruciating emotion that all families of missing children have to endure: loss. We wanted to show the void in the life of these families in its most pure form. We did this by doing the opposite of what people expect on a stamp: we didnât show a portrait.Instead we used its absence as the central design element. Effectively saying everything by showing nothing. Agency: Wunderman Antwerp. VIEW THE FIRST AD VIEW THE SECOND AD  From tsunamis to sharks, the ocean is full of danger.
