SAMSUNG WITH A PEN

for Leo Burnett Sydney
and Samsung

‘An iconic urban scene from inner-west Sydney got a paint job for this mixed-media piece. Our visual playground incorporated live footage, plasticine, typography, and even spray-paint effects for these quick life snapshots for Samsung.’

A splash of colour
in the daily mundane

Introducing the world to a new product from a top-shelf brand is no small feat. These short films are bold, energetic, and fun – showcasing how the Da Vinci pen can splash a bit of colour into everyday life. Our character, Elle, is a talented designer looking for ways to bring creativity into the daily grind. Inspired by the urban scrawl out the window of her morning commute, she experiments with animation on-the go, thanks to the mobile nature of her device.

Sketching over live footage was really fun for our team. It allowed us to get into Elle’s headspace and bring her vision – and Samsung’s – to life…. reminding us what it means to be every day creatives beyond the confines of a bricks-and-mortar studio.

Creative
Every day

This film was 100% created using a Samsung phone (except for the bits that weren’t). Seriously though, our team were super excited to test the new Samsung and all its sexy new design capabilities – and the urban scenes were filmed on this top-notch phone. Using the product to craft key film elements added a fun creative challenge to the project.

and the most decent human beings you’ll probably ever meet…
