ClientBriefOrObjective

Samsung camera which is leading the compact digital camera market in Korea starts to ask themselves what makes a better camera in addition to its superior image quality and precise technology.

Effectiveness

Numerous visitors were moved and inspired by the students' photographs for reaching beyond conventions, beyond what we see with our eyes. Professional photographers were also impressed by their work. All 80 photographs on display were sold out during the exhibition. A $50,000-fund was created with the proceeds from the sales of the works and exhibition catalogue and from the donation application. The money will be used for the next photography class for the visually impaired.

Implementation

To answer the question, "what makes an ultimate camera?" we decided to have very special photography class. We handed out cameras to a class of 11 visually impaired students at the Hanbit School for the Blind and spent 50 days with them teaching basic photography skills and taking them on shooting excursions. They took pictures relying on sounds, smells, textures. They captured on film everything they felt and imagined, and their photographs were brought together in a special exhibition.

Relevancy

Promotion for the exhibition kicked off with the airing of a TV commercial followed by interactive ads in print media and on outdoor billboards that connected to interview videos via QR codes, and by online campaigns on micro sites and Facebook.The exhibition at Yoo Art Space featured not only the students' photographs but reliefs and a 4D experience room which allowed visitors to experience the show with all five senses. This special exhibition was covered by numerous print and broadcast media and the photography class was filmed as a documentary that aired on national TV.
