Overview

Background:

Boysen, the Philippines’ leading innovative paint brand, created BUG OFF, a special paint with Artilin anti-pest technology. The paint kills disease-causing flies, cockroaches and mosquitoes upon contact.

The brand needed to raise awareness for BUG OFF through an outdoor campaign that would demonstrate the innovation in a clear yet captivating way.

Tell the jury about the art direction.

We created a series of billboards that brought to life the idea: Boysen BUG OFF was as effective as carnivorous plants in terms of pest-killing abilities.

One of the billboards featured an image of a Venus Flytrap capturing a mosquito. The visual was recreated using splashes of Bug-Off paint, captured using high-powered, high-speed cameras in precise moments and trajectories.

Is there any cultural context that would help the jury understand how this work was perceived by people in the country where it ran?

The Philippines continues to record the biggest number of cases of dengue fever globally, a virus carried and spread by mosquitoes.

With this effort, we are also raising awareness on the importance of protecting families from disease-causing pests that are prevalent in Filipino homes, now possible through Boysen BUG OFF.
