Results and Effectiveness

We successfully got people ot use Corbis' images in a whole new way, allowing millions of them to be viralled across different social media channels. More importantly, we have, using Corbis images, created a new form of expression to enrich the way we talk about our world.

Creative Execution

We created VISUAL ALPHABET, a feature on the Global Corbis website that not only let people search for images, but speak through them. Doubled as a messenger, it instantly replaces each letter on your keyboard with a Corbis's image. Just key in any message and it will be translated into fun video comprising different Corbis' images!

Insights, Strategy and the Idea

Everybody in the creative community knows Corbis. But less and less people are searchng for imaes on Corbis. Our task was to recapture people's attention and create a brand new perspective on Corbis.
