  • Koovs.com urges users to explore its unique offerings

    By A Correspondent

     

    Online fashion store koovs.com has launched a multi- media brand campaign – ‘step into koovs.com’ for the Indian market. Conceptualised by Grey London, the campaign is aimed at engaging with the young fashion enthusiasts and inspiring them to innovate with fashion. The new campaign will comprise of TV commercial, cinema, billboards, print and digital.

     

    Styled as a music video, the commercial features up-and-coming British rapper Lady Leshurr performing her explosive track, Hours and 17 year-old International dance sensation Dytto, who recently performed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The commercial with these two young and talented international artists represents the global fashion appeal that the brand stands for. The video includes a combination of dance, music and fashion, which appeal to youth across the globe. The television commercial showcases the main leads as they experience a fashion journey across the globe. From a Mumbai street to an East London food market, from an underground party in a Parisian ballroom to the beauty of a Manhattan rooftop, the concept was designed to showcase how fashion is empowering them to achieve their aspirations.

     

    Directed by Stink’s Martin Krejci, it took three weeks to shoot and presents an extreme technical challenge. Working with highly acclaimed technology specialist Tom Sparks, the VFX were done in camera using wires and completed in Flame. For each transition, multiple camera passes were utilised to capture multiple layers of action – actor, stunt double, clothing before and after and beauty passes. Each layer was then painstakingly composited to create a scene and seamless transition from one incredible scene to the next.

     

    Speaking on the brand campaign, Mary Turner, CEO, Koovs Group said, “We have successfully established a loyal fan base using digital media and now want to reach out to a wider audience through our multi media campaign ‘Step into koovs.com’.
