We chose a former overhead hopper as location and spent an entire afternoon there shooting with Louis. The martial World War II bunker is situated in the Berlin Volkspark Humboldthain, a park that was created in 19th century to commemorate Alexander Humboldt and as a dedication to the beauty of nature. Today it’s a paradise for climbers and sports enthusiasts. How times can change…

After Kleinundpläcking (a Berlin-based brand consultancy) had developed the Modern Agriculture brand (German: “Moderne Landwirtschaft”) for their client Forum Moderne Landwirtschaft e.V., we were asked to create the brand’s visual language based on a sharp and differentiating brand promise: “the knowledge of us all“ (“Unser aller Wissen“).
In the first, step we produced a series of key visual photos to interpret the brand’s core values. Our goal was not just to photograph the motives of agriculture, but also to take some pictures in the heart of a big city—to explain that modern agriculture is an essential part of people’s day-to-day life, no matter where they’re living.

In the second step, we produced an image film—directed by our dear Frederik Bösing—to explain the brand promise. Originally, it was only planned to use the video for internal purposes. But then FML’s people decided to show it to the entire world—in the context of the official launch of the new brand.

Together with our friends of Wenkerottke agency, we created in the fourth step a magazine-like website concept that gives the brand a digital home: contemporary, content-focused, target group-relevant, and synchronized with the social media channels.

For MYP Magazine, we portrayed Luke Pritchard, frontman of The Kooks, at the Gibson Guitar Showroom in Berlin-Mitte—a few weeks before the release of the band’s new record, “Let’s Go Sunshine.”
In our interview, Luke discussed the importance of bringing some light and positivity into the world. And he explained how the band managed to revive his late father’s voice on the new record. Luke’s father had passed away when he was a young boy, and after the interview, he told us that his dad once had a Gibson guitar at home as well.

Visual campaign identity and website concept
After the commercial and photo production we created a specific campaign design and developed the concept for an interactive campaign website that was realized by diesdas.digital. On this website, BerlinLinienBus’s followers could upload their personal, campaign-related content. So the brand was able to directly communicate with its target groups.
