As the world seems to be getting lonelier, celebrating friendships is more needed 
 
than ever - especially for Gen Z. For them, their fam is literally their family. Because besties lift them up, in a world that may not “get” them. 
 
So to cherish the vital role of friendships in Zalphas' lives, 
 
two of the world’s most loved and culturally relevant brands became besties. 
 Even if only for a limited time.

Coca-Cola and OREO teamed up to create limited-edition products that perfectly blended their tastes. 
 
But new products mean new packages. So we started by dressing up the same, like besties do.

We know how besties are when they spend too much time together. 
 
They start behaving like each other, right?

Also, we wanted to make sure that everyone got to see us together.

We even created a universe of our own, taking a little bit from each one.

But hold on, we're moving too fast. How did it all start?
 
Like two commuters sharing the same ride for years until they strike up a conversation, our journey started with these two 100-year-old brands realizing they should be besties.

When people couldn't wait any more, we launched both products with events all over the world highlighting the legendary pairing of this iconic duo.

We then invited artists to bring these products to life with interactive murals.

And we took over the streets and the internet across the globe.

This striking collaboration inspired a series of playful opportunities for Besties to come together.

To spread the word about this new bestieship, we even create special kits for influencers.

In partnership with Forever 21, we also launched an iconic collection of clothes only sold in pairs to match outfits with besties.

But the best was yet to come: by scanning a code on the products, a digital activation that celebrates, strengthens, and rewards bestieships was unlocked on Spotify.

Heinz Tomato Ketchup is, well… Ketchup. But, as the name says, first comes tomato. That's right. What makes Heinz the best ketchup is that it's made with the best tomatoes.
 
As people nowadays care so much about what they eat, having a ketchup made only with tomatoes and few natural ingredients is very important for customers. But the problem was that most people didn’t know about it. So it was time to change that.

Heinz Case Tomato First.mp4

We created a new tagline combined with a modern and fun visual identity that puts tomatoes first in all our campaigns.

Logo

To ensure that all our comunications points across the world would look the same, 
we developed a new toolkit using vibrant colors and illustrations.

We also added new assets, such as exclusive photos of mouthwatering food and real juicy tomatoes.

Tomatoes

To help set the new brand tone, a few headlines were included, as well.

But the most important was to have a structure that could adapt to different media. So we created a modular identity that could work in one, two or three parts.

Finally, we showed some examples of how this new identity could work.

With all this information, the new brandbook was succesfully launched, with campaings all over the world.

Cyberbullying is one of the most committed crimes in the world. At least 70% of young people between the ages of 15 and 24 have already been victims of it. But the problem is that Whatsapp, the most common app used by these criminals, has end-to-end encrypted messages, which doesn’t allow the authorities to break through and follow them, leaving the victims defenseless.
 
If WhatsApp doesn’t help us take the bullies out of the internet, we take the internet out of the bullies.

Terms Against Bullying - Case Study

We analised contracts from all Europe's largest mobile companies and found out that they have a cancellation clause in case of illegal behavior.

So we created a website in which people could 
report bullies anonymously.

We also taught about all the different types of cyberbullying.

The campaign took over the streets and the 
internet across the continent.

But most important: it took more than a thousand bullies out of WhatsApp.

Cadillac has inspired musicians for decades, being quoted in the lyrics of over 11,530 songs around the world, according to Lyrics, web's largest music resource. So in 2017, we took this unique opportunity to make artists and bands like Bruno Mars, Ariana Grande, and AC/DC our unofficial brand ambassadors with an innovative use of media that was never done before.

If you watched "Cadillac Song" by Ariana Grande, you would be surprised by this ad.

And if you decided to watch "Royals" by Lorde, that’s what you would see.

For every song, a different ad was placed on the exact moment the brand was quoted.
Like on this example by AC/DC.

Songs Feat. Cadillac - AC/DC

We did it with more than 100 artists or bands.

But we didn’t stop on Youtube. We also hijacked people's favorite tunes on the top radio stations in Dubai.

And to promote the videos not only digitaly, but also on the streets, we created interactive posters to reveal the brand that inspired all of these musics.

Finally, we created a website with all the songs to promote the campaign.

For years, Apple refused to update their text tech to RCS, causing a bunch of communication nightmares between iPhones and Android in the USA. 
 
In 2024, they finally adopted it, but we knew they wouldn't make a fuss about it. So we did.

Android RCS Balloons Long Form

We launched a whole campaign based on the green/blue bubbles every American 
 was already used to seeing, as a fun and simple way to visualize what’s improving 
 
in this new era of texting, starting with one of the biggest problems: 
 
pixelated images.

Medium_Pixel_GIF

But we didn't stop there. 
 
We had to show everything that Apple was denying its customers,
just by not wanting to adopt a tech created by Google, such as adding people to existing groups.

Medium_Maya_GIF

For non-Americans, it may sound crazy, but even reacting in messages 
 
wasn't like in the rest of the world.

And of course, even though they fixed a lot of things, they didn't want to adopt everything from the RCS. 
 
So we made a list of what was missing so they wouldn't forget it in the next update.

And we went beyond films, using all social media to expose 
 
what Apple wanted to do almost in secret.

Brazilians are very superstitious. Especially when it comes to football. So during the 2022 Fifa World Cup group stage draw, we decided to give our fans and players a little help, sending our first opponents some bad luck gifts.

When our first opponet was drawn, we packed a gift to make sure they would get off the game on the wrong foot.

BRAHMA - CREAMY DELIVERY - SWITZERLAND

As for the second opponent, we sent a gift to make their players reflect their bad luck.

BRAHMA - CREAMY DELIVERY - SERBIA

For the third opponent, we wanted to ensured a storm of goals from Brazil.

BRAHMA - CREAMY DELIVERY - CAMEROON

Finally, if anyone missed any of the three videos during the draw, we released a last one so everyone could know that luck would be on our side in the World Cup.

In 2022, Carnival in Brazil was canceled for the second year in a row, leaving thousands of beer hawkers and can collectors without their most important income of the year. So Ambev decided to help these professionals, who have always been its partners in other carnivals.

In order to assist them, Ambev created a R$ 150.00 financial aid and started donating R$ 5.00 for each delivery ordered during Carnival.
 
So to help boost sales through the app, we created a 360º campaign, with he most popular Brazilian beer hawker and one of the most popular comedians in the country.

It ran both on the Internet and on the streets, where Carnival would take place.

We also took the beer hawkers to sell their products in a safe place: Tik Tok.

Finally, we went viral with a content from the most popular donation Youtuber in Brazil.

But Ambev wanted to go further and help these people not only in the present, but also in the future. So, in addition to the financial aid, we created a website where registered beer hawkers and can collectors had free access to dozens of professional courses, in which they could learn and start a new career.

The Brazilian northeast is one of the richest regions of the country in terms of culture. Each state has its own customs, rhythms, dialects and, above all, foods made with different ingredients and cooking methods, which make them unique. Unfortunately, the rest of the country doesn’t see it that way. Due to bias and lack of information, most people think the entire northeast boils down to the same dishes.
 
So, on Northeast Day, we wanted to show that the region’s cuisine goes far beyond that. Each state has its own flavors, created by its people every day in their homes.

We started by inviting one of the best illustrators from the northeast to create a visual identity representing different types of people, foods and cultures from the region.

With all these assets, we created a campaign  asking people from the region to send us their favorite homemade recipe made with cooking methods, spices and ingredients typical of their state.

All they had to do was screenshot a blank template that we posted on our stories, fill in the information and post it back, tagging us.

The campaign ran 100% digitally, without spending a penny on media. And we shared all the recipes on our Instagram, with a highlight for each state.

Then, to encourage people across the country to try these recipes, we invited chefs from the region to teach how to cook some of them at home.

Finally, with all these recipes in hand, we created a unique cookbook that represented the flavors of each state, to send both to influencers and followers, who were part of it.

Have you ever heard of Bacon Day? Yeap, that’s a thing. Actually, it’s a very important thing not only for Heinz, but also for many people in Brazil who are really passionate about bacon.
 
So, in partnership with Big Kahuna, one of the most famous burger shops in São Paulo, we decided to test people's love for bacon on this iconic day.

While the love for bacon is forever, other loves come and go in life. And one of the worst things about breaking up is all the gifts you got during the relationship that now only remind you of your ex.
 
So, on Bacon Day we challenge people to exchange those gifts for more bacon in their burger and snacks. And for the first time, Heinz got a new tagline. Even if just for one day.

Logo_Bacon

We started by annoucing the campaign on social media.

POST_GIF_2

We also showed people what they could exchange, which was just about any gift. 
The more relevant it was, the bigger was the prize.

We also took over the streets near the burger shop.

When Bacon Day finally came, it was a success, surpassed all expectations.

ATTO is the largest soybean seed producer in Brazil and its product is known for its high productivity. But most people didn't know why it was so good. So we decided to show: it’s all about the process. They take good care in every step of the way to garantee their seeds will perform at its best.
 
So, we started by shooting a film showing its daily process. Each person in the video was a real ATTO employee going about their routine.

Also, we created a 360º campaign with different elements that represented ATTO's objective as a company: to help make Brazil one of the greatest powers in the world through agriculture.
