T.D.G. Vertriebs: Cheese Pencil

parmesan cheese cheese pencils large 46016

Brief Explanation:
The 3 different types of parmesan cheese needed packaging, which is easy to handle at meals and also lists portioning suggestions as a bonus. With the built-in grating function you can sprinkle delicious, appetizing flakes of parmesan cheese on your meal.

Describe the brief from the client:
Develop packaging for a trio of selected parmesan cheeses including a grater shaped like a pencil sharpener – an addition to the ‘The Deli Garage’ range, a food label that supports small manufacturers of delicacies with lovely packaging ideas.

Description of how you arrived at the final design:
The cheeses are shaped like oversized pencils, where the “leads” contain three different flavours: truffles, pesto and chilli. With the sharpener included, the required amount of cheese can be sprinkled on the dish. A scale on the pencils and on the back of the packaging doesn’t just simply list how much of the Cheese Pencil is needed for each dish, but even how many calories the portion contains.

Indication of how successful the outcome was in the market:
The limited first edition of 500 was sold out 2 weeks after the launch.

Reporters Without Borders: Special Postmark

human rights special postmark large 85622

Brief Explanation:
The biggest challenge was coming up with a design for the mailshot that worked completely without words, was very different from conventional mailshots and was attention-grabbing as well as making a noticeable reference to the sender’s mission.

Describe the brief from the client:
The International organization Reporters without Borders supports innocently detained journalists worldwide and fights for their discharge. To generate donations to support the organisation’s work and to at the same time achieve media support from newspapers, a mailshot was to be created for the International Human Rights Day that made reference to the organisation’s mission in an unconventional way and immediately set the mailshot apart from others at first glance.

Description of how you arrived at the final design:
A special postage stamp and a specially-designed postmark were designed and, with the support of the Austrian Postal Service, circulated for International Human Rights Day (10.12.2010). This uniquely designed, special edition postmark was used to imprint over a postage stamp depicting an imprisoned journalist. The result showed the portrayed journalist as if behind bars. Together, the portrait ‘Behind Bars’ was created and the mission of the organization made unmistakable. So we communicated our message to the receiver even before it was actually opened.

Indication of how successful the outcome was in the market:
The mailing was a great success. As a result newsarticles supporting the organization Reporters without Borders appeared in 28 newspapers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. This in turn generated donations and publicity.

“See What You’ve Been Missing”

Tourism Victoria’s new campaign is aimed at inspiring folks to see Victoria through new eyes. At the centre of the campaign is the Victoria Viewfinder, a new invention pioneered by Tourism Victoria. The never-before-seen creation is a marriage of a viewfinder you might find at a lookout point and a retro View-Master toy. Consumers who use a Victoria Viewfinder are treated to a tour in pictures of our vibrant city. All consumers who come in contact with the campaign are driven to our Facebook Fan Page (www.facebook.com/tourismvictoriafan) to enter to win a VIP vacation to beautiful Victoria, BC. Bathroom and print ads support the campaign and mini viewfinders are handed to consumers by brand ambassadors so they take a bit of Victoria away with them!
