Serviceplan Russia announces inaugural campaign for OPPO since winning the business in December 2019.
The OPPO Reno3 Series launch campaign is comprised of three ‘mockumentary’ videos starring Russian opinion leaders: Alex Mazurov (photographer), Evgeny Ches (graffiti artist), and Oleg Ternovoy (popular singer), each of them sharing unique creative concepts. The three opinion leaders were able to bring their vision to life thanks to the advanced photographic capabilities (‘clear shots’) of the new OPPO Reno3 Series.
The campaign was launched in Russia at the end of May and will be rolled out in Turkey, Romania, Kazahkstan and Ukraine in June and July.
This campaign is Seviceplan Group’s first project with the OPPO brand since it won the regional pitch last December. Serviceplan Group has offices in China, Poland and Russia and as a result, demonstrated a synergy of creativity and technology in its concept. The creative idea for the launch campaign is aimed at shifting the focus from self-expression to the inner self. In each of these individual stories, the notion of creativity is explored – coming up with the initial idea and a personality standing behind that idea. The stories are about intelligence and hidden talents within ourselves. In each story, technology plays a role in drawing out these inner talents.
The shooting of the videos took place in Russia and non-standard filming solutions were necessary along with online translation. One of the videos was shot by the seaside without a wi-fi connection nearby and consequently it was produced in the most natural way, depicting the real behavior of the influencer and the vision they follow.
Online shooting didn’t limit the agency team either – the videos were of high quality and the team was able to engage with lots of online participants in real time. The shooting, editing and post-production of the animation and graphics of all three videos was completed in three weeks, thanks to the hard work and strong collaboration of the agency, client, director, Filmservice production company and the three opinion leaders.
