Egg Films Lebogang Rasethaba joined forces with M&C Saatchi Abel on the latest campaign for South Africas leading online fashion destination, Superbalist. The result is a fresh reimagining of fashion advertising underpinned with the powerful message that style is an attitude that starts within.
The creative team at M&C Saatchi Abel tasked Rasethaba to direct a campaign that would tap into peoples inner narrative about their sense of self-worth. Rasethaba and the team bring a strong and distinctive visual edge to this campaign, while simultaneously letting the internal dialogue of the performers take centre stage.
This work is a celebration of unique and eclectic individuals, and echoes a recent trend in fashion advertising that challenges conventions and celebrates individuality and difference.
Delicately reflecting humanity and endurance back to us, Impress Yourself is a visually powerful piece of culturally relevant communication, a refreshing fashion ad thats not a fashion ad.
According to Egg Films Producer, Julia Schnurr, the team shot the entire campaign in just three days using only two houses as the locations, and they did it all while the stills for the campaign were being done at the same time. Quite a feat is how she put it.
I was really excited to work with the creative team from the agency, probably one of the most exciting teams in advertising. Being able to experiment with a fashion ad that wasnt overtly selling fashion but rather an attitude was interesting and complex, added Rasethaba.
For M&C Saatchi Abel, Jake Bester was Executive Creative Director, Bella Evans was the Creative Group Head and Copywriter, and Lubabalo Mtati was the Creative Group Head and Art Director, with Bronwyn Henry Sharon Martin producing.
I am obsessed with humanitys inner dialogues. You know, the existential stuff. In a lot of ways, we are the product of our own inner dialogues. I think its important to acknowledge that we construct our views of the world through the things we tell ourselves ... and dont tell ourselves, said Rasethaba.
To explore all this depth with something as seasonal, playful and perhaps even whimsical as fashion is both challenging and fun.
