Lost and found in translation

       

Nordea is a leading bank in the Nordic region. With many of the largest businesses in the region on the client list, they are doing well. But what about the future? How can we attract young people between 18-28?

The language of economy is not suited for attracting the Facebook generation. To get around this we hired a bunch of young translators to communicate what the bank adviser was saying. The result is a refreshing approach to how financial businesses can communicate in a non-financial way. The campaign is produces in four different languages: Norwegian, Danish, Swedish and Finnish.

Awards

For the Norwegian horse racing betting foundation, Rikstoto, we did a somewhat outside-the-box-project.

It holds the concept that playing horses online is fast, simple and fun. This campaign cleaned up in the 2007 banner category winning 3 prestigious awards.

Coop Obs! Hypermarket

       

In Norway people go shopping everyday. They shop what they need here and now, instead of doing all their shopping once a week. Coop Obs! Hypermarket is Norway’s number 1. Hypermarket and would like to change this behavior.

To communicate what Coop has to offer, we moved all the articles into a normal home, giving the user the opportunity to experience a hypermarket in an untraditional way.

You can change the world with your pencil

       

Grafisk Højskole is one of the most respected schools within communication in Denmark. To recruit new students to their integrated course “Creative Communication”, we created a campaign together with The Aid Agency.

The key message was that you can change the world with your pencil. All visitors had the opportunity to sketch out their ideas directly on the site, and having them shown on the photos used in the campaign.

Statkraft – Pure energy

         

Statkraft is a leading player in Europe within renewable energy. We created a campaign to tell everyone in Norway about how Stakraft is about to change the way we produce energy.

Try had produced a beautiful commercial with a piece of paper in the main role. We reused this commercial to tell the story about Statkraft and renewable energy, giving the visitors the opportunity to send a tailormade poster to their friends, written on the paper used in the film. They could also enroll in our competition, where the main prize was an electric car.
