Young Creatives for Cannes, Germany (Second!)

A few weeks ago, WerbeWeischer called out for a Young Blood contest. Brief was to create a thank-you-poster for all those extremely devoted St.Pauli-Fans. FC St.Pauli is like one of the most crazy clubs Germany has ever seen, so the bar's already raised pretty high.
We stumbled over this contest like only in the week, they extended the deadline.
So we had 2 days for idea, execution, production and sending it out.
And there was a catch: only use gettyimages.
I just returned from my internship at jungvonmatt, so i was sorta fed-up with stock-images :)


Read on...

After one whole day jsut for the conception, we decided on two ideas. Put up a temporary agency in my flat, Pavel took on the skin-ball and i embraced the zombie-motif. Thanks to our "Späti", lotsa strawberry-juice, my gorgeous 80s-playlist, Pavel's exquisit sense of humor and at least 2000 disturbing stock-images of naked or molested women (why, please?), we finished two artworks and sent them out the next day...and then...we waited...


...and it was worth it. We did not only made it on the shortlist, but scored 2nd. 2nd, photofinish with serviceplan and my former employer jungvonmatt (personal victory ;)).
The girls from KNSK scored first, congratz to the trip to Cannes and the 10x10m poster. Cheers!
