    Creatives today do a little bit of everything, from illustration to filmmaking to web design. This film celebrates how all these different disciplines are coming together. 

    In it a series of artists are shown with their work projected across their faces. Artists who appear include Joshua Davis, Dylan Roscover, Anita Fontaine, Jeremy Fish and Alejandro Chavetta. Additional artwork was also crowdsourced from Behance, an online platform that showcases photography, graphic design, illustration and fashion.

    When Adobe replaced their popular creative software with the subscription-based Creative Cloud, they were launching an entirely new way of using their product.

    So we decided to launch an entirely new type of customer.

    Today’s creatives aren’t just one thing; they are multidisciplinary artists. We needed to show what is possible now that all of Adobe’s tools are bundled together.

    To win them over, we put our customers at the center of an integrated campaign, projecting their crowdsourced self-portraits onto their faces and thereby showing art and artist together.

    * An online spot declared, “I Am the New Creative,” and contained embedded links that connected directly to the featured artist’s portfolio.

    * Posters were distributed to featured artists.

    * The website iamthenewcreative.com encouraged artists to submit portraits and become part of the campaign.

    * Adobe donated its global social media network to showcase the New Creatives’ work to more than 16 million potential viewers online.

    If you attended the 2014 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, you saw some of the world’s most awarded and respected advertising illuminati featured in Adobe’s “New Creatives” campaign.

    The print work used the faces of six of the industry’s most respected professionals as palimpsests for collaborations with up-and-coming artists within the Adobe Behance community. Each creative professional partnered with an emerging artist to conjure up a design that reflected both the professional’s most famous ad campaigns and their unique personalities. The professionals’ faces were then painted white, and the designs were projected onto them.

Each creative professional partnered with an emerging artist to conjure up a design that reflected both the professional’s most famous ad campaigns and their unique personalities. The professionals’ faces were then painted white, and the designs were projected onto them.

    The esteemed creatives included Jeff Benjamin (J. Walter Thompson), PJ Pereira (Pereira & O’Dell), Eric Kallman (Goodby Silverstein & Partners), Fernanda Romano (Naked), Mick Ebeling (Not Impossible Labs) and Alex Trochut. Collectively, the group has won over 110 Cannes Lions and 14 Grand Prix.

    The creative partnerships include the following:

    * Jeff Benjamin working with Vault49 to turn his face into the “subservient chicken” he made famous for Burger King

    * Mike Ebeling also worked with Vault49 to interpret his open-source invention that allows paralyzed artists to create art through eye movement

    * Eric Kallman joining Adhemas Batista to re-create Kallman’s work for Pizza Hut, Skittles and the mega-successful Old Spice campaign

    * PJ Pereira and Doug Alves paying homage to Pereira’s latest book, Gods of Both Worlds (about Brazilian folklore), by projecting a traditional Brazilian deity mask

    * Fernanda Romano teaming up with Yema Yema to showcase Romano’s vivacious personality through design

    * Designer Alex Trochut created his own design

    The ads ran in the official Cannes welcome booklet, in the Lions Daily News, on distributed posters and fliers, on out-of-home LED screens along the Promenade de la Croisette, through online social content, inside the Palais entrance and at the Adobe welcome party.

    By putting creatives at the center, we dramatically increased visits to artists’ portfolios. Positive sentiment toward Adobe Creative Cloud increased on social media. And the creative themselves became our best and most effective ambassadors of a new way of working.

  • Sprizzle

    The SPRIZZLE (Spinning Visual) is a DIY collapsible digital screen designed for protests that was created by BETA, our in-house technology lab. By tying a spinning bike LED sign to an umbrella, it can display images or even videos on the fly, according to what you’re standing for that day. 

    "The idea is that a single or multiple people could use these during a protest to push their messaging further and in a more digital fashion," Troy Lumpkin, a member of the BETA team, told VICE Creators’ Lab. "It's basically a Blade Runner-protest sign-conversation starter."

    For National Iced Tea Month, we partnered with the coolest coldest T we know, Ice-T, to promote SONIC’s new Frozen Sweet Teas. A six-foot-tall, 600-pound Ice-T ice sculpture holding a microphone, set on the roof of GS&P’s SF headquarters and slowly melting—drip, drip, drip—was streamed on Facebook Live. When the mic dropped, the first 100 fans to comment won limited-edition Ice-T shirts that change color in the freezer. We also made some spots.
