    Zulu Alpha Kilo, RGD “Speak The Truth” For DesignThinkers Conference

    By SHOOTUpdated:No Comments4838 Views

    In this video short to promote the RGD’s (Association of Registered Graphic Designers) DesignThinkers conference, prominent designers are hooked up to a polygraph lie-detector machine, answering age-old design-related questions such as, “Is your wardrobe primarily black?”

    The lie detector test is part of the “Speak the Truth” campaign from Toronto ad agency Zulu Alpha Kilo. The work exposes the truths of design around us in a humorous, relevant and sometimes provocative manner.

    Zak Mroueh, founder/chief creative officer/CEO of Zulu Alpha Kilo, said, “By focusing on common truths that most designers often think, but never say out loud, we want to spark conversation and inspire those in attendance to speak the truths of their own.” 

    The DesignThinkers conference, which takes place in both Vancouver and Toronto, is a two-day event where designers and speakers alike are given a platform to share their unique point of view on branding, trends, communications technologies and design management. The conference takes place on May 29 – 30 at the Vancouver Playhouse, and October 24-25 in Toronto at the Sony Centre and St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts.

    Top Spot of the Week: AlmapBBDO, Director Lu Villaca Team On A Show Of Strength For Women and Johnnie Walker

    Thursday, December 19, 2024

    Johnnie Walker wraps up the year with an inspiring campaign that is a direct and bold response to those who would question the strength of women. Created by AlmapBBDO in São Paulo, Brazil, this anthem film--“Forte São Elas” (“Strong are the Women”) starring actress Alice Braga--references one of the most iconic productions in the brand’s history worldwide:”The Man Who Walked Around The World.” Produced by Surreal Hotel Arts, directed by Lu Villaça, and featuring an original soundtrack by Cabaret Studio, “Forte São Elas” shows Braga walking as she describes how strength plays an essential role in the daily life of every woman. Whether facing stereotypes or countless other barriers, women are the masters of their own choices and stay true to their journeys. “The campaign recognizes the emotional strength and resilience of every woman who faces and overcomes obstacles every day, and boldly challenges outdated stereotypes. And when they say that whisky is too strong for women, we will tell them: it’s the women who are strong,” said Andrea Rubim, head of marketing for Johnnie Walker.
