  • ‘Socho toh karo, karo kuch bhi’, says Dell in new campaign

    By A Correspondent

     

    Dell has launched a new television commercial that is crafted around its theme for youth in 2015 – Learn. Share. Inspire. Conceptualized and executed by GREY group India, the commercial is a testimony to Dell’s belief that aspiring youth of today can not only express their creativity, but also inspire others by sharing their knowledge and creations with the use of personal technology.

     

    Launched in the background of Dell’s Back to College campaign, the TVC premiered online on Dell’s Youtube homepage on June 27,2015, and will be aired on television on July 10, 2015 across leading general English & Hindi entertainment, sports, and music channels.

     

    College students armed with ambition, and the desire to assert individual identity, are looking to perfectly balance their academic and social lives, and technology gives them the platform to do this. As students step into new college semesters, this year’s ‘Back to College’ campaign sets the tone for youth to be motivated about their personal ambitions. As part of the campaign , Dell showcases its exciting new range of Notebooks from its flagship Inspiron brand, the Inspiron 5000 series, which is designed to play multiple roles in a college students’ life – be it for college assignments, skill and knowledge development, or for connecting with people and entertainment.

     

    Ritu Gupta, Director-Marketing, Consumer & Small Business, Dell India said, “In a recent pan India research[1] surveying the existing and potential PC users in the country, it emerged that the youth is ready to spearhead their respective interests using PC technology. The study revealed that the PC is pivotal to self-learning and gaining knowledge for students who have a hunger to do more. “Karo Kuch Bhi” is a reiteration of this year’s theme for the Back to College campaign – Learn. Share. Inspire – which motivates students to express themselves using the power of technology and thus create and share on multiple online & offline platforms. Through this TVC we are realizing our vision of delivering technology which enables youth to reach beyond basic academic learning and enhance the quality of content, leading to the ‘sharing’ of creative ideas, expression and knowledge.”

     

    The TVC addresses the meaning of the word ‘sharing’ among today’s social media savvy generation. In an environment where people are thirsting for captivating and inspirational content, the objective is to highlight the shift towards how youngsters are following their dreams and are producing innovative and thought provoking ideas and content, even as they inspire their others by sharing their journey. The TVC conveys that by creating something new, one can have a meaningful impact and inspire many others to create something of their own.

     

    Ram Jayaraman, Executive Creative Director, GREY group India, Bangalore, said, “The previous Inspiron Notebook TVC we created for Dell was about all about passionate inward pursuit – following your dreams till they become achievements. This one is more outward. It is about touching others with the force of your conviction. It is about passion snowballing into inspiration. Because when passionate youngsters learn and share ideas and beliefs, they make things happen.”

     

  • Dell questions conventional with ‘Learning Meets Doing’

    By A Correspondent

     

    Dell India kicked off the Back to School season with a new TVC that has been conceptualized and crafted in sync with the theme for 2015 – to transform the process of learning with intuitive technology. The TVC is a reiteration of Dell’s belief that a school student’s education can be made more engaging and interesting by leveraging the potential of technology.

     

    Learning by rote is a common practice among young students, faced with the challenge of remembering large amounts of content to do well in examinations. The new Back to School campaign stems from the thought that learning should not be a task, but something young minds should look forward to with interest. With the launch of the new TVC, Dell kicks off its flagship Back to School season with the aim to evolve conventional methods of learning by including technology in education to aid a better understanding and application of learning content.

     

    Conceptualized and executed by GREY group, the TVC conveys Dell’s overall campaign message of ‘Learning Meets Doing’, empowering children to learn and understand better through the use of technology. Taking Dell’s Back to School campaign into the lives of school going students and their parents across the country, the TVC lays emphasis on how in an Indian household, a child studies by rote. Depicted through the “Ratta Raga”, a mother watches her son struggling to learn something he cannot understand, which builds concern around her child’s method of learning. His “Learning Meets Doing” moment is realised when she introduces him to the path of comprehension using the Dell Inspiron All-in-One PC.

    Ritu Gupta, Director – Marketing – Consumer & Small Business, Dell India said: “This TVC is an abstraction of the challenges faced by young students in the country. The demands of education today means more youngsters are taking to “ratta-fying” with the single minded aim of reproducing this learning in their exams. The concept of ‘Learning meets Doing’ is aimed at challenging today’s method of education. We believe that an intuitive and engaging education which underlines real life application can result in the creation of a generation of well-rounded, ambitious individuals. Dell takes pride in enabling young children by providing them with the right technology for their educational needs. We wish for both, existing and prospective users to understand how technology can fuel creative thinking, and holds the potential to open up a world of knowledge for ambitious minds.”

     

    Ram Jayaraman, Executive Creative Director, GREY Bangalore said: “There’s a difference between studying and learning, just as there’s a difference between getting marks and getting an education. Learning happens when we understand something, and understanding happens easiest when things are engaging and fun. Technology can spark imagination, making the mundane come alive and simplify what’s complicated. While growing up, we had no choice but to learn by hook, crook or rote –children today luckily have a much better option.”
