Working M&C Saatchi Beijing and production company Pixomondo Melis has created a fully animated TV commercial, an online film and an outdoor campaign.
This campaign may seem very standard for the western advertising scene, yet it's something quite unique for the Chinese audience. China is catching up so quickly on everything including advertising and VW is definitely in the frontline in making groundbreaking adverts.
Think Blue
is the worldwide VW campaign for fuel efficiency and environmental
protection, a concept which is also quite new in Asia. M&C Saatchi
Beijing had the idea of presenting the concept through animation and
visuals showing nature and humans moving smoothly together. The spot
it's a journey of an iconic VW car through an incredible world were
everything is connected, lively and positive. The symbol of the campaign
is a dandelion gently flying through this friendly world. The tone is
very uplifting using Jason Mraz's hit 'I'm Yours", and the look is
simple and beautiful.
