rise UP!
The Atlanta Falcons were in a pretty tough spot. The team lacked
tradition and a winning history. Player scandals, allegiances to
other teams, and lousy economic conditions didn’t help. The Falcons needed a community uprising—and that’s what they got. An
authentic Southern soundtrack, Hollywood’s biggest star, and two
simple words set the tone. Now, local pride is at an all-time high,
and the team has a distinct new identity. As a result we exceeded
our season ticket sales goal by more than 200%.
doCkers' retUrn to mAnhood
Khaki pants, once a symbol of rugged masculinity and freedom
from suits and ties had become the default uniform of cube
dwelling middle-aged middle managers, which was a problem
for Dockers, the category leader. Our task was to give the brand
back its potency and reverse a long-term downturn. Our creative
solution, Wear The Pants, did this and more. By highlighting the
societal issue of the male decline, we touched a nerve with men
and society as a whole as to what being a man might mean.
