Along time since my last post , stumbled on something on my harddrive the other day, time for it to see the light of day. This is the setup we did for the Vans- off the wall stopmotion video that we did a while back >> http://dwaynekoh.com/2009/05/14/vans-off-the-wall-stop-motion-2/

I have been invited to be a judge of student’s work at this year’s One Show in China. The students were tasked to promote a Campaign by HP called “My computer my stage”. They were tasked with creating content that could potentially be ‘viral’ in nature. Attached below are some entries, Which I found were interesting. Bear in Mind these are kids who have not graduated yet. OneShowChina

While looking at director reels for a Coke project, I came across a Prodigy MV “Smack my bitch up” by Jonas Akerlund. Check it out. Pretty hardcore. Warning… nudity involved. 18+

The Converse spring 2010 campaign, here are some behind the scene images.The entire setup was shot at a warehouse somewhere in shanghai.
The team has worked on the Converse Lyrics campaign for a while. Finally the audience participation component of the campaign has launched.”LET’S PLAY” is the tune QSBS (Queen Sea Big Shark) has written, the idea is for youth to write lyrics to the tune the band has created. Sad that this idea is so small now, the initial idea was to get 10 bands around Asia to record a track each for a total of 10 tracks and get the public to write the lyrics to the tracks and release the music as a collaborative edition converse CD.Well, guess the budget didnt allow for it.Bummer…

This was an idea I had for Vans, basically telling asking people if they have seen “laobai” (old white) China’s oldest skater. We show him in skating in locations around china from the 50s to present on video blogs, then get a fan base around him… Next we get Vans to track him down. Once Vans have tracked him down, they invite people to come to an event to get to know him. Vans unviles him at a launch event, at the event Laobai takes off his beard, and he is none other then Steve Caballero the lengendary Skater. This is a sample mockup test we did in beijing. Funny thing was some people thought he was really old, and he attracted a huge crowd.
Running out of space for books. Designed and created this single block of wood that is very flexible. If you create multiples of them you can have unlimited configurations and other uses. Other than holding books, I have used it as a stool, a small table for food, a ladder, and a projector stand.. nice. It cost me 50RMB for each piece. The Spec’s are simple : the height is double the width. Depth is as deep as your widest book.
We had an interesting idea for North Face China. Instead of building a website to promote their products, we decided to build a tool that would be useful to the community. Through this experience users will be able to excess the range of products too. This tool makes it easier for the community to explore their environment. It will kick start their adventures for exploration.
A stop motion test for Vans “off the wall” campaign

An “Off the wall” campaign for Vans. These were a set of print and interactive work for VANS. The idea was based on the fact that the brand was rooted in skateboarding culture.
We played on the insight that skateboarders interacted with the street and their environment. The idea we had fell nicely into their slogan “Off The Wall”. We tried to bring that out in the prints and web experience. In the print below you can see the interaction between the people and the street through simple chalk drawings.
