Brief Explanation

Microsoft launched Windows 8 at 2012. This is a revolutionary operating system. It has a lot of completely new ways of operations. Problems: It challenged people habit of using a mouse to touch screen. Insight: habits are hard to break. How do we get people willing to touch and feel for Windows 8? We put touch to test, literally. We produced an internet film viewing 3 masters with wonderful power of finger. The unexpected light hearted stories touch the audience. Desire to have a trial is dramatically increased. Setbacks and solution: Considering the creative and deployment workload, we created a language for this video which sounds like an Asian language but not specific. Everyone can understand the story even without dialogues. It’s also a way to create topics around consumers.
