Epson EcoTank Refresh
Brief Overview
We worked with Epson to refresh the look and feel of their EcoTank range of printers, rolling out across their marketing channels and POS through EMEA. The previous creative had used Usain Bolt as a brand ambassador, so we had some big shoes to fill!
My Role
Assistant Creative Director & Motion Designer
My Involvement
This was a motion-first campaign, with the main deliverables a series of short videos, so I was brought in to help lead the creative direction and develop the animation style. We took a focus on using the ink bottles as characters to tell the story and embody the ease of use of EcoTank printers in a light hearted, charming way.
I was able to collaborate with a 3D designer to create the background environments, and explored emerging technologies to combine 2D and 3D elements in a time-efficient way when animating the characters. I developed the look and feel of the bottle characters and explored animation styles to breathe life into the main characters.
I then created a series of animated videos and key visuals, exploring customer scenarios and seasonal events.
