Charger
“Charger”
is a three-episode animated mini-series designed for the mobile app of the same name.
Charger app is designed to facilitate buying call credit for mobile phones in the fastest way
possible. After conducting thorough marketing research by our team and studying the statistics
provided by the customer, we found out that this application has some formidable and wealthy
rivals who are already in a running for a ferocious game of competition with each other using
highly expensive prizes to lure customers towards themselves. Therefore, we decided to run a
campaign of product placement via storytelling and a group of likeable characters to establish
the brand in the market. Our main goal was to increase the “heart share” of the product among
customers and users. The main slogan of the campaign was the phrase “Your stories won’t remain
unfinished” and we feel honored to say that it was a very successful campaign. We based our main
concept on the nature of the product itself and from there we could explain one of the primary
features of the product in each episode. This model of advertising (Product placement during
storytelling episodes) are best suited for creating viral videos in social media. The intrigue
of the stories, their comic tone and the popularity of characters were key to its success, which
eventually led to an increased rate of brand loyalty. The animated mini-series were produced
completely from start to finish at Singow, using digital painting technique.

Story-Reel
After having enough sessions with the customer, which includes brainstorming and
gathering
ideas for
the subject, we choose one idea and write a scenario. Then we design the concept,
characters
and
backgrounds. After all these, We prepare the story-reel which includes complete
scheduling
and
editing plan AKA decoupage and give them to the customer. Then we will fully animate the
project and
mix the sounds. Needless to say that each stage is complete after the confirmation of
the
customer.
