Results and Effectiveness
More than 200,000 people watched the demo movie within 2 weeks.
Creative Execution
We reconsidered the value of print media which are:
1) the enjoyment of turning over the pages and 2) the feeling of paper texture which digital devices do not have.
We were combined a traditional print media 'Picture Book' and the latest digital device 'iPhone' together. We named it 'Phone Book'.
Insights, Strategy & the Idea
Because of the rise of digital devices such as iPhone, Kindle and iPad, Japanese publishing company 'KODANSHA' was feeling a sense of crisis about print media, especially about books. Our objective was to produce some kind of new style books which combined print media and a digital device.
