Objective of Final Year Project To showcase the understanding of how a combination of traditional and media, when combined effectively engages Millennial consumers living in Singapore more effectively, especially through reaching out to each individual in a personalized manner instead of grouping millennials as a whole.

Objective of the Integrated Ad Campaign To promote Skin Inc. as a brand to the local Singapore millennials who are turning 30s in a few years time (which are the main target audience of the brand.) Although Skin Inc is a local brand, many do not know or have even heard of the brand yet. In order to reach out to them easier later on, it is important for Skin Inc to first build a brand impression with the millennials who are at the phase of exploration. Objective of campaign is push millennials’s buyer readiness stage to the next tier on Skin Inc as a brand through creating awareness of the brand name so that they could recall it and purchase products from Skin Inc when they have enough purchasing power.

and each of this deliverable allows a personalisation experience.

generation. More than 1/3 of millennials couple met online and people are purchasing online more often than ever. Moreover, millennials are also very much tied to social media lives that they become awkward communicating in person although they love communicating digitally. They want to have conversation with brands but online.

Insight 2 (Skincare behaviour) Moreover, compared to the previous generations, millennials are less loyal and more experimental, constantly trying out new things and specifically evident

Idea Development Phase 06 Mockup - Instagram

Showing how each of the 10 serums would help improve the skin concern, what does each concern mean through instagram posts and swiping motion. This is because many of the millennials are still young and new to skincare routine, gradually getting to know how their skin works. This part hopes to let them know alittle more about the serum and what are the different skin concerns that they are encountering or may encounter. It is also a easy way for consumers to know more about the function of each of the 10 serums through simple swiping motion and image visualisation.

Advertisement - Instastory Perhaps since the big idea if on finding a match, the ad could be based on a storyplot whereby viewer would think that the "main character" is trying to find a perfect match but instead it is for her skin

Swiping Motion Instead of just answering questions like a quiz like format, things could be more fun by swiping to find a match, stimulation of tinder platform which most millennials use today to find their match

Chat with the team Beacuase millennials do not like to interact in person and which brand does not have a live chat service nowadays anyway?

Personalised results End the quiz with a personalised message that is encrypted from their quiz that helps them understsand more on why each product is being recommended

B-DC324 Graduating Design Project

Idea Development Phase 06 Mockup - Mobile Site Part of the campaign, deliverable 01 is a mobile site. The process of designing the mobile website was done through storyboarding and wire framing of the mobile app. The visuals and illustration is taken from the previous brochure since i did not have much time to work on it but yet, really wanted to have a prorotype at least of the customisation process. The design main point focuses on the last part of the customisation whereby user swipe left/right to a series of questions this is inspired by tinder's format of swiping to find a match because i felt that it is a fast and easy way that millennials are alraedy farmiliar to and love. The selfie function was also from the thought of how not only millenniials is known as the selfie generation, they are also very shy people who do not like to communicate in person because they are so used to communicating online. Alot of time, because they are shy to consult the brand staffs, they just end up not trying out products or purchasing items from the brand since they are unsure which one is for them.

Design refinement Some of the variations i tried out for the art direction for the swiping section. Tried out various ways of using the rainbow spectrum before deciding to use the one picked out. Considered of making each card different as they swipe from the background colour or just the words. It was also different when seeing only 1 card of it instead of all the decks put together,because although i liked the coloured background (next page,row 2) it did kind of look messy after i put everything together side by side.

carefully or the perspective just don’t work. Scene selection and location must be a perfect fit because the audience is no longer focused on the main character’s face and body. Cues can no longer be taken from facial expressions and body language and the viewer can very easily become lost as to who is friend or foe. Bottom line is that 1st person POV just lacks the same emotion as work that has the flexibility of unlimited camera usage and scene blocking. In addition, you must have a comprehensive team that works flawlessly together through pre-production, production and post production. The pre-production process needs to be extremely aware of the limitations and needs of the post workflow due to the nature of the POV. First person perspective is essentially faking a single take and cuts will need to be hidden in blinks, turns and other movement. The concept can completely fail without this being taken into consideration from the start. First Person POV – The Good First person POV has been used often in film since the beginning. It’s a wonderful way to convey urgency, create suspense and energize an audience. It has proven to be extremely effective in horror movies. It can be used as a tool to handicap your senses and provide a platform to bring you to the edge of your seat. Used as a way to immerse the viewer into an idol, like a sports star, can allow even adults to live out their fantasies. But there is a time and a place for everything. This doesn’t apply to just first person filming – limiting any project to just one point of view, be it wide, tight or first person ends up just being a gimmick.

P&G loves advertising “that makes you think, feel, laugh, cry, smile, act – and, of course, buy,” according to Marc Pritchard, chief brand officer for the Cincinnati-based maker of consumer goods such as Old Spice deodorant (NYSE: PG). “Consumers are increasingly looking for brands and companies that have a point of view,” Pritchard told me earlier this year. “When a brand has a point of view about things that matter to people, then you understand more about the people behind the company and the brand. And that’s why we have a point of view.”

Treatment Cinematography

Cinematography will be saturated colours with cool tones. FIlm should keep in mind that environment should be bright, high in saturation and high contrast. The mood of the cinematography should contain a high level or energy and proactivity to keep viewers engaged. Because shots are done un point of view (POV) do take into consideration of how transitions and blink would be applied. This filters could be applied on through lut filters. https://luts.iwltbap.com/gopro/

Idea Development Phase 07 First Cut

Got zining and xinwei to help out to shoot video 1 scene 1, to do the active lifestyle ad. Also, along with some cuts of using the serum this is what i put together for my 1st cut.

Feedback & Thoughts •

Like student project, feels like a draft shot and very badly filmed. The quality could be better. Perhaps could hire a videographer or get a gimbal to shoot moving shots. Because of the tight schedule and lack of budget, there would probably be no way i could hire a videographer Besides because of the plans of locaiton for my shoots and the casts are all different it would also be very difficult to cooodrinate everything or even allow a stranger to access like people's house and office spaces... so therefore would look for alternatives on how i could improve the filming quality and stabilization... Moreover, it is indeed a draft because my shoots are barely done, have 5 scenes but currently only have 1 scene done.

Thought that the ad is very refreshing and shot in a personal manner like all pov shots do. Morover, because this is done with Singaporeans, it made me felt even mroe relatable looking at this ad.

Idea Development Phase 07 After refilming and filming more scenes

After shooting the rest of the scenes over the span of a fews days in 2 weeks, finally got to put together the cuts. Instead of insital plan of 43 secs, i managed to cut it down to 35 seconds. Felt that it should be as short

as possible because millennials or any viewers these days, do not enjoy watching ads and ads are mostly skippable. So keep it short and sweet.

Storyboarding Wanted to do my lifestyle images like this, with placing of word over it but realised that most of the images do not have enough "identity" to be able to identify image to the word so decided to drop this idea

Edited the clips mainly in premier pro, by placing in all the already cropped clips before hand it makes the file less laggy and also more organised.

Decided to place the phone and screen record at 42% first where the entire phone and image could be seen. Then later on, take a few of the layers that is part of the same "Screen" to after effects to animate the phone moving and scaling effects. Along with the text animation

This campaign wants to let them know that, at skin inc,the brand does not have 'one product' that is suited to your current skin concern but it is always made to be suitable for you because it is customisable, giving the 'flexibility' unlike other brands. (cue scene of someone finishing the ad, go to the site) After watching the ad, they could go to the mobile site to find their match through simple and features that they are already used to such as selfie and swiping right. (AE- animation) The site also provides more information on how their lifestyle affect their skin and they could always refer back to it when their lifestyle change. (AE- animation) And because millennials love being experimental, we also provide ways for them to know more about their skin and share tips on how the serum could be added into their lifestyle and beauty routine. (AE – text animation) And in this way, we let them know " Skin Inc is Always Right For You "

Coherence and Continuity: Will be shown through customer journey - film and explained during table set up. It could be good to also have a chart to explain. Consistency: Using "Always Right For You" as a core to hold everything together, keep art direction, illustration and font the same. Video Commercial to have illustration animation effect Complementary: While the video commercial is an entry point for viewers to get the message, the mobile site would need to be accessed for consumer to complete the journey. Then, after receiving their order, the mobile site would continue to act as a connection. (Post service)

Idea Development Phase 07 Social Media Platforms Using creative hub, i transferred the ads into instagram,instastory and facebook sponsored posts. The challenge of insta story was cutting down the ad to only 15 secs and also, because i did not consider it before hand of the instastory view, the videos had to be squared or else it is unclear what the "storyline" is about. Not much issues with the sponsored posts. But however realised that as i put them into the instagram,instastory the quality of the videos deteriote, becoming slightly blur and grainy but there isn't much i could do about that.

Idea Development Phase 07 Packaging The last deliverable of the campaign is the packaging box which would come along after the consumer purchase the product. The packaging carries the element of the mobile site and the big idea of Always Right For You. However, i did not redesign the shape of the packaging because the old packaging comes with a plastic container that would hold the serum nicely in place. Also, did not remove the rainbow spectrum idea since i want it to still look like skin inc's product. Test printed the packaging using 150 gsm but realise the paper could not hold the weight of the bottle. Have to use 300 gsm in the end.
