Heineken - THE TUTORIAL
Formula 1 is drama. It’s action and intensity.
It’s a superior driver in a high tuned, custom designed, single seat, open cockpit racing car, backed by thousands of enthusiasts.
But Formula is much more than just the race, it’s also a sport for the uninitiated.
The Tutorial tells the story of a meeting between one of Formula 1 most famous drivers – David Coulthard - and a newbie, intercut with an intense action journey.
David Coulthard tutorial brings the newbie on a journey explaining that Formula 1 is not just about constant challenges by the drivers but also warm blooded fun for the non drivers.
David Coulthard tutorial is followed by a succession of scenes, from adrenalinic pit stops to glamorous yacht parties.
In the film this is expressed metaphorically, not literally.
Towards the end we discover that the newbie’s journey was a dream. David Coulthard and the newbie never really left the VIP bar where they met, he was just entranced and transported by David Coulthard’s incredible description of the Formula 1 world.
We end on David Coulthard outsmarting the Heineken Guy by talking his 2 Heinekens – the last two of the entire party – and we understand that this was his intention in the first place.
Publicis approach today: Lead the Change
We believe that change has become the defining characteristic in today’s business environment. The brands that thrive are those that understand this and are designed to manage, capture and leverage the change in the world around them. To that extent, Publicis’ founder Marcel Bleustein-Blanchet’s spirit is still alive: You have to lead the change, if you don’t want to be led by change.
In a world of accelerated change, the future of a brand and business cannot be predicted precisely, but it can be imagined. Today’s brands compete with new technologies, empowered consumers, shifting public attitudes, brand new contenders and much more. In order to keep their relevance among customers, managing change and uncertainty is a pre-requisite. Creating leading strategies and powerful ideas that allow our clients’ brands to become unique, irreplaceable, in control and ahead is our purpose. In more than 80 countries, our agencies work with a wide range of clients and company cultures. But in our network we all share a common ambition: to help our clients and their brands to be and remain the leaders they want to be, to Lead The Change.
Publicis vision:
