The Campaign

Flash memory may have been flashed out technologically by cloud storage, but perhaps memory still needs its romantic form of retention. Kingston, the No.1 brand of flash memory, intends to reclaim its glory with this brand campaign by reminding consumers of the intrinsic values of memory storage.

Results

This film has connected the brand Kingston with “memory” as the communication strategy. It gives the brand warmth from the depth of memory. The story was adapted from a true story from BBC news. An elegant elder lady, Dr. Margaret McCollum often sat quietly in the Embankment station of the London Tube, until one day she approached to the station manager and asked if she can get a copy of the previous safety message: Mind the gap. It was her late husband, Oswald Laurence’s voice. The station manager realized her affections and how she lingers on her memories. He helped bring her husband’s voice back and kept her memory. This film has aroused people’s sentiments of their memories, and also recognized Kingston’s value of memory. Flash memory may have been flashed out technologically by cloud storage, but perhaps memory still needs its romantic form of retention. Kingston, the No.1 brand of flash memory, intends to reclaim its glory with this brand campaign by reminding consumers of the intrinsic values of memory storage. •To launch a single titled “A Memory to Remember” on the No. 1 music-on-demand site while mysteriously leaving blank on the intro of the singer.
