Love Your Internet

ZiplyFiber

IDEA: Love Your Internet
In our third installation of Ziply Fiber home internet campaigns, we teamed up with Hornet studio to create two energetic spots that showcase Ziply Fiber’s faster, friendlier, full-on greener brand image. In this first foray into live action for Ziply, we combined branded, high-octane 2D animation and high-spirited live action performances to create a wholly unique world.

Love your internet

Ziply Fiber / 2022

People love the internet, but not their internet service provider. That’s why Ziply’s here: to introduce everyone to a glorious world of faster, more reliable home internet that would make people fall in love with fast.

 

Love Your Internet: Lucy

 

The story

In each spot, the narrative features a central character—Lucy and Lenny—who has their non-Ziply internet conk out on them. From a cold, gray, bad internet world, they’re instantly transported to a maximalist explosion of hyperactive energy in the world of Ziply Fiber internet.

The design

The illustrations have clean lines and flat colors to emphasize speed, trustworthiness, and modernity. A refined, bold design style allows cinematic live action to blend in seamlessly with the illustrated environment.

From storyboard to finals

 

We use a subtle hint of green bounce lighting to seamlessly blend the cast into the illustrated environment. It Infuses a modern editorial style that gives Ziply a unique brand look & feels.
