NOKIA XMAS:
Be the Gift
This was my stab at a Christmas ad for Nokia, in the vein of the annual tearjerkers coming out of M&S or John Lewis.
Here’s the background: Parents live for their children. Watching them grow into adulthood and leave their home behind is always a bittersweet experience. For Christmas 2018, Nokia wanted to remind both parents and children that family is forever, no matter what life brings. Released just in time for the holiday season, 'Be the Gift' is the spiritual successor to HMD Nokia’s 2017 #BeTheGift campaign.
And for the chef’s kiss, the ad won Platinum AVA & Brand Film Festival Awards.
