This 2010 campaign while at Partners + Napier was created just prior to the upcoming CES in Las Vegas as a significant push to support Kodakβs digital consumer devices at retail.
Kodak needed to makes some waves fast, so they leveraged celebrity and some of the biggest hip hop and pop starts of the dayβDrake, Trey Songz, Pitbull, and Rihanna. The campaign of :15 TV spots showed their picture sharing thread amongst them as they flex their varied experiences by capturing on Kodakβs m590 cameras and sending them to their share group via Kodakβs Easyshare button on the devices.
The effort culminated in a PR event in NYCβs Times Square where Drake, Pitbull, and Trey Songz performed for a VIP crowd, which was covered by entertainment news sources including entertainment Tonight and MTV. Print, digital and out of home including Kodakβs Times Square board supported the campaign.
Turns out this was Kodakβs swan song in the consumer space as smartphones outpaced their camera sales, but it was an incredible experience to be a part of producing for the brand.
