Lenovo Yoga Tablet
Brief
Big Idea
Deliverables
Working with Quinn O'Brien, VP of Global Brand Strategies at Lenovo, he provided us with an actual client brief. The objective of this campaign was to create a viral online video that features Ashton Kutcher. Targeting Millenials, Lenovo is looking to start competiting with Apple & Samsung, and have a major presence in the United States.
"Different is Better." The Yoga Tablet stands out from its competitors, whether it's the tablet's functions, or the design of the hardware. With the Yoga, you will stand out, you will be different, and that is a good thing. The creative features a character named Jeff, who owns a Yoga tablet. Whenever he takes it out, he transforms in Ashton Kutcher.
Provided below are two scripts that feature Ashton Kutcher.
