KAPWA collaborates with Clemenger BBDO to relaunch an illustration and animation driven brand relaunch for Compare Club
Full Brand Relaunch Campaign, Branded lllustration System, Direction, TVC, Outdoor, Character Design, 2D Animation
In an age of algorithmic sameness, celebrating the beautifully ordinary has never felt more radical. We’re thrilled to unveil our latest character animation campaign for Compare Club’s brand relaunch — a heartfelt and humorous tribute to the wonderfully unique John and Jane Smiths of Australia.
“Imagining all the different John and Jane Smiths of Australia became a joyful expression of artistry for the entire team. We’re lucky to have partners in Compare Club and Clemenger so deeply committed to great craft — Christoph, and I along with the whole crew had a blast making this.” — Robertino Zambrano, Creative Director, KAPWA
Commissioned by Compare Club and developed with the direction and collaboration of the brilliant team at Clemenger BBDO, KAPWA Studioworks led the creation of a bespoke illustration system and directed a suite of 2D animated TVCs, digital content and outdoor media that captures the quirky charm of everyday Aussies — in all their mismatched, magnificent glory. The work was created by KAPWA under the creative direction and art direction of Robertino Zambrano and directed and designed by Christoph Sarow with the production support of KAPWA’s animation partner, AIM Creative Studios.
We worked with Compare Club and Clemenger BBDO to develop a bespoke illustration system. The challenge was to create a unique, ownable and expandable illustration style for the Compare Club world, which celebrated individuality across the extremely diverse everyday heroes of Australia - the John and Jane Smiths of our country. The illustrated design system had to span all media channels, from character design for TVCs and national outdoor campaigns; to illustrated icon systems for digital.
