X Shore, a brand driving the future of electric boating, has created a unique advertisement that features the 2015 hit song “Sun is Shining,” which reached number one on the music charts, by Axwell (Axel Hedfors) and Ingrosso (Sebastian Ingrosso). Celebrating Midsummer, the music-centric video was created and directed by X Shore’s internal production team and Konrad Bergström, Founder and Head of Creatives, and tells the story of the joyous experience aboard the Eelex 8000, a 100 percent electric boat built to entertain family and friends. “We’re thrilled to showcase X Shore alongside such a great song to celebrate our favorite time of the year, Midsummer, and embrace our Swedish heritage. We know everyone who watches can get a sense of the joyous feeling a high tech, sustainable boat can give to those onboard,” said Bergström. Much like its boats, X Shore has taken an innovative approach to advertising by creating a music video-style advertisement in-house with creative team members, Hedda Hökfelt, Kasper Bröns, Oscar Dieden, Elias Wästberg, and Head of Creatives, Konrad Bergström, complimented by an external team consisting of Hannes Söderström (photography), Pierre Wikberg (videographer), Philip Puljak (editor). The full 4-minute music video has premiered on X Shore’s YouTube channel, and a 20-second version will appear on TV in Scandinavia during the Olympic games this summer, as well. X Shore additionally plans to run five different 15-second versions through paid advertisements on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok in the U.S. X Shore is built on the core values of technology, sustainability and design, and its Eelex 8000 is a fully electric boat that was crafted with all of these core values in mind. Designed for those who aspire to become one with nature, passengers can embrace the natural beauty of the water and all that inhabits it without the harmful noise and fumes typical fossil-fuel engines emit, making the Eelex 8000 the ideal dayboat for every marine activity. Equipped with safety, entertainment and fleet telemetry features, and built with sustainable materials like cork instead of teak, as well as optional Flax fiber instead of fiberglass and carbon fiber, X Shore’s Eelex 8000 offers passengers a unique, seamless boating experience that they have never experienced before.

What happens when you mix a thousand year old craft with modern technology? This was the question the young danish ceramics brand TORTUS COPENHAGEN asked as it seeked new ways to convey the values of hand-made craftsmanship to a broader audience. The Idea: the reinvention of the (potter’s) wheel. We created a short film capturing handwork in a fully new perpective. With the use of modern technology already widely used in the area of x-treme sports, we captured something quite different; a piece of clay being shaped by the hand at hundreds of rotations per minute. The new angle: the world revolves around the growing form like in the eye of a tornado. From a piece of earth to a stunning vase, this created a never before seen and beautiful perspective of the making process that transcend the somewhat antiquated notions about the artform.

Created by HearLife Clinic and FP7/McCann in Dubai, “Lost Frequency” is a series of self-diagnosing radio adverts for hearing loss. With 500,000 people affected with hearing loss in the UAE, the challenge for HearLife was to get the 35% of sufferers unaware they have a problem, to take a hearing test. The early symptoms of hearing loss are difficulties hearing high frequency and low sounds, often only discovered in an audiology exam. In the examination, ranges of sounds tested patients hearing: those unable to hear above 4kHz+ are diagnosed with hearing loss. To make the test something everyone would want to listen to, the team took the science of a hearing test and disguised it as wildlife documentary. Because birds, crickets and dolphins all naturally sing in the 4kHz+, they could use these animals to help self-diagnose hearing loss. In a series of 3 radios, take a quick dive with dolphins, listen to the birds, and join thousands of crickets on a summer’s night. For the first time, those who didn’t know they had a problem were self-diagnosed and offered a solution.

What does a world-class New Jersey cancer center do when it wants to elevate itself onto the same platform as NCI (National Cancer Institute) accredited cancer centers? The John Theurer Cancer Center first turned to purpose-driven NYC boutique agency Leijas to solidify their messaging and approach. The agency didn’t simply start with JTCC’s cutting-edge innovation and advancements in technology. Rather, they focused on JTCC’s unique philosophy that includes the expertise of over 1,200 sub specialized leaders in the field of oncology. And what they learned was that it all boils down to patients. But JTCC treats cancer much differently, in three distinct and tangible ways – with optimism sparking resilience of the human spirit, the expertise of world-renowned specialists, and personal care and compassion. This combination of heart and science led to the value proposition “pushing science and innovation to heal the human body and spirit.” The approach was to truly connect with the patients and allow them to be the brand voice throughout the communication effort. Leijas spent several weeks working closely with the cancer center leadership to identify “hero patients” and to understand the unique elements of JTCC and the campaign strategy. Leijas then got to know the patients and their families – not just the cancer they beat, but diving into their stories and into their hearts, reliving their journeys - often revealing their vulnerabilities. The strategy became not defining each patient by their disease, but rather highlighting them as individuals. The goal of the campaign from JTCC, which breaks this month, is to raise awareness of JTCC – it’s unique approach to treating cancer told through the successful treatment of these four patients. Unlike all-too-common hospital advertising, the work invites a deeply personal element as well a genuine element of hope, and inspiration. The campaign’s goal is to build the center’s awareness and reputation, runs through the end of December and includes: four documentary-style videos, website, print, digital, billboard, radio and social media. The 360-degree media planning and buying was handled by media agency SPM, Chicago. Content advertisement created by Leijas, United States for John Theurer Cancer Center, within the category: Health.
