Gruen – The Pitch

Smartarses

Video

Background

 

For our 6th instalment of ‘The Pitch’, we again, were served with the task of “selling the unsellable”. This time, the brief was to convince Aussies to switch from smartphones, to dumbphones.

Result

 

Our insight stemmed from the notion that with all of us becoming more dependent on technology for the most basic things, we realised how destructive our smartphones are to our life skills. You could ask, Who’s controlling who? ”.

This resulted in a super fun and slick execution we called “smartarses”, where we personified the humble smartphone and created a story about why Smartphones actually make you dumber.
