Projection Mapping, the next big thing

So the first time that I encountered video projection was in late the December of 2013 when I attended the New years celebrations  in London. I was taken  a back by the power that these visuals carried and had mesmerized the crowd for the night....strong animations coupled with bombastic music just made the experience unforgettable.

Memories of London revived when I witnessed the launch ceremony of Samsung S8 at Lahore's iconic Shahi Qila and LuckyOne Mall's grand affair of opening the 3rd largest mall in Asia. The man behind it all Mr Umar Toor of 3Di group made this all possible in Pakistan. The finesse with which these two launches had been integrated and promoted through projection mapping definitely deserves a big round of applause.

Like London's iconic Big Ben, 3Di group strategically chose Shahi Qila for the launch ceremony of Samsung S8. The historic building in itself is a puts one in awe and vivid visuals added to the beauty of the place like never before. The building came to life..presenting to the audience reminiscent of its history and the projections unfurled a beautiful future to the Lahorites.

At Lucky One the projections showcased an illusionist who spell bounded the audience by not only the wonder of his hands but also these 3D projections. The projections were crafted to make the audience experience the tiresome journey which lead to the construction of the Mall. The experience was truly one of its kind in the magnificent amphitheater of the Mall.

Its good to know that our advertising industry is progressing towards a brighter future. Although this idea is still in its infancy in countries like Pakistan but that time isn't far away when our projections will be as suave as those sitting in the developed nations of the world.Groups like 3Di will surely pave way towards refining this technology even more and couple it with improved a audio visual effects to create an experience that will be etched on the consumer's mind forever...!!

Nadra upping Its Branding Game

So it was last week when my husband decided to change the address on  his National  Identity Card as he had some other official work to be dealt with which required this procedure. Deep in my heart I was dreading this entire episode as I knew how a day at the Nadra office was never less than a nightmare the wrath of which I as wife had to face later....little did I know that things had changed at our very own laggard brand Nadra... We visited the branch located in the Blue Area District of the Federal Capital Islamabad...I was first taken aback by the news that now Nadra never sleeps...(eheh...can be the new tagline)..its ready to serve you 24x7!!!  (I couldn't believe  my ears when my husband broke this news to me,...but well i was still quite doubtful of the claims that Nadra makes and decided to believe the opposite...) I kept whining as to how our trip will be put to waste visiting the office at 5...(come to think of it the people who didn't work durin...

GSK making waves with Physiogel...

GlaxoSmith Kline has been operating in Pakistan  since quite sometime now and have always adopted a very low keyed marketing strategy as far as mass marketing techniques are concerned.This all, however has dramatically changed with the launch of Physiogel-A hypoallergenic range of skin products. I am yet to use the product but its marketing efforts really make it sound promising. The use of celebrity endorsers such as Ayesha Khan and heavy media coverage on online and offline marketing channels stand unparalleled. It was also new for any brand to bring forth the team behind the product as we saw  the brand manager,Aiza Sumsum come up on all launch events and was talking about the product as it was her own baby..and sure it was !!...Cheers for the physiogel team...may this be the start of carefully crafted and engineered beauty products putting and end to the harmful locally manufactured beauty creams that our youth sometimes opt for.

Sana,the new savior for Olpers....

The very sight of Sana Bucha advocating Olpers for being as pure as milk makes me gag at times. When the advert hit the TV screens initially it seemed to me like an honest move towards re building consumer trust towards the tetra packed milk products. It also made a lot of sense to get a strong personality like Sana to advocate the brand and refute all the claims made against it. However, slowly and gradually the entire campaign seemed to fall down on its knees as it looked as if the brand was unable to draw a line between making consumers to trust their favorite milk brand again and begging them to pay it the much needed heed, Telling the consumers that Olpers can stay good  for upto 3 months as it goes through some super sci fi UHT process and then the very next second covering this whole sci fi gibberish up by saying that it does rot like our good old cow milk...Oxymoronic much! Even in this age and time...some advertisers believe that the consumer will be sawyed by ou...
