It all started with some cold data: 74% of children (5-12 years old) spend less than 60 minutes playing outside each day.
Ad that to the fact that United Nations guidelines for prisoners require “at least one hour of suitable exercise in the open air daily“.
These are the facts that made Bruno Ribeiro (foto, MullenLowe London) to ask himself lots of questions and ultimately to transform these hard numbers into a story: on average, children now spend less time outdoors than a prison inmate!
An award-winning art director and creative director with over nineteen years’ experience in the advertising industry, Bruno worked for 8 months trying to give an unique perspective on this story.
And, since its launch, the “Free the Kids – Dirt is Good” campaign has picked up a phenomenal 4 Cannes Lions plus a Silver in the ‘Print and Publishing’ category and 3 Bronzes in ‘Integrated’ and ‘Outdoor’ respectively.
The work of Creation: there are 3 divine pillars
Presenting at iCEE.fest 2017, Bruno admitted that the whole process of creation was “painful and exhausting“. Nevertheless, the results were unbelievable.
And this experience made him believe that “the whole work of creation is based on 3 divine pillars“:
- Powerful insight
“An idea with an insight is more likely to connect to the audience”
- Fresh execution
“There is no formula here: 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Do you want a tip for that 1%? Feed your brain”
- Outstanding craft
“It’s your baby so take care of your idea. Find the supplier who will make your idea even better”
But this “holy trinity in creativity” applies not only in creative campaigns. It also applies to any service or product.
