All supporters of the University are cordially invited to take part in the campaign.

The motion graphics create a visual metaphor of “Converging the dynamic of sports teams” as well as the connotation of “Every little makes a mickle”. Finally, it illustrates an objective of encouraging the myriad alumni to continually support the student-athletes through donations and volunteer services.

Social Media Campaign Minisite

ABOUT

The German National Tourist Board (GNTB) has its headquarters in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. It works on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) to represent Germany as a tourist destination and is funded by the Ministry in accordance with a decision taken by the German Bundestag. The GNTB develops and communicates strategies and products to promote Germany's positive image abroad as a tourist destination and to encourage tourists to visit the country. It has 30 agencies around the world to support its activities.

As part of its global campaign on the ‘Holidays in the heart of nature in Germany’ theme, the German National Tourist Board is focusing its international marketing activities in 2016 on facts relating to nature tourism.

PROJECT AIM

Central to the sales and marketing activities are the 130-plus protected national landscapes in Germany – 16 national parks, 15 UNESCO biosphere reserves and 104 nature parks. The sub-themes of ‘Surprises in Nature’ and ‘Nature’s Pleasures’ reveal lesser-known sides to and destinations in Germany, and provide tips and background stories.

The campaign was designed to boost fan growth and drive traffic by leveraging the influence of social media. With Facebook as a strong communication platform, we utilized the channel to reach our target audience and successfully delivered the engaging content in our quiz game minisite that drew the attention of our audience. In order to reach as much target audience as possible, participants would also be encouraged to share the campaign to their friends with rewards.

DESIGN THEME

The overall art direction of the minisite aimed at presenting a more vital and trendy image, with lucid and concise layout of flat graphic as well as horizontal parallax animation, a natural and vibrant tone of voice was created.

Visual Identity

ABOUT

Jack’s Veterinary is a team composed of veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses. Seeing the many opinions and scattered and unverified information about pet care on the internet which may confuse owners, Jack’s Veterinary was set up which aims at providing better quality of life and health for our animals. The core value is to provide an online veterinary service and share the knowledge and information of pet care with the public. Apart from offering members the online veterinary service, they also devote their effort on organizing different activities and interest groups.

LOGO DESIGN CONCEPT

The logo design is based on the graphical manipulation of a Jack’s poker face, which combines the silhouettes of those 4 major classes of animals - cat/dog, rabbit (small mammal), chameleon (reptile) and bird. The visual is embraced by a form of shield as the metaphor of protection and prevention dedicated to the animals.
