Overview

'Feel the Music' was a campaign for Spotify highlighting the craft and effort musicians put in to making music thereby, bringing them to the forefront in an environment where songs are attributed to film stars. It was a collection of three ads and countless billboards all making their studio spaces and process of making music transparent.

India’s new age Insurance brand needed a brand refresh to come across as more than a friendly, easy and trusted insurance provider, it needed stature. With more services than insurance, like Service Centres and Clinics, ACKO is becoming a corporation that walks every step with the consumers and adapts according to their needs.

Approach

The case study was one of my biggest lessons in storytelling. We had many ways of looking at the work we did as the cause and effect of the campaign was multifold- an aspiration to shift people from freemium to premium, highlighting the hard work of artists as they are so integral to the platform, calling it an artist's song and not a film star's, setting centre stage for independent artists. For Cannes we focussed on the narrative of highlighting hard work to make the listeners value artists.

Process

We began by cutting rough edits with different ideas, then based on the strongest strategy we finalised a direction and began crafting each frame. Starting from the very origin of playback singing and how it slowly made actors the face of music to an extent that listeners lost track of the real voice, to how the campaign became a small pebble in the ocean with hundreds of billboards and the ad films.
