Expand the family

After a succesfull I Love My Ears Doppies campaign, it was time to expand the Doppies family for new campaign materials. In the header, you can find a short narrowcasting video. It will be shown in poppodia all around the Netherlands.

Normally, people will see it without audio, but we added a cool tune to bring it a bit more to life.

DESIGN PROCESS

It was important that everyone could identify with one or more Doppies. Therefore, we first researched the different types of people that exist. We based this on DISC profiles.

Next, we created five unique personas, each with their own distinct personality, traits, and appearance. Following this, we began sketching the designs for the five new Doppies.

Once the design phase was complete, we used Cinema 4D to transform the sketches into fully (un)realistic 3D Doppies. During this stage, some design choices were adjusted, such as the clothing, colors, and accessories. Below, you can explore everything about the entire Doppies family.
