Emo Algo-Rhythms
Facecam emoji music generator.
Beetle has always been a creative and expressive property. Let’s continue this ownable attribute through art and music. Using your smartphone’s camera the user can take a selfie or photograph their friends which generates a ‘musical mood-ring-like- emoticon. Each emoticon is married to a Spotify track which you can send to friends and use as a social sharing ‘status-update.’

This initiative includes a microsite with a “visual mix builder”. It prompts users to create a beetle emoticon and then populates their mix with driving music depending on the characteristics of the face they design. They can then send the emotion art and driving mix to friends worldwide via mobile devices.

VW Beetle Flipbook
The Beetle flipbook showcases the various accessory options available for owners to customize their cars. Because this vehicle competes in a segment where personalization is important and widely available, it was necessary to show that each Beetle can also be made an original. The books were distributed at Volkswagen dealerships and events, allowing new owners and qualified prospects to walk away with accessory inspiration and a nod to the reinvention of two old-time favorites: the flipbook and the iconic Volkswagen Beetle. 240 pages, 6 x 3, 4-color, 2-hole drill, bound with Chicago posts.
