The campaign promotes how commuters can get more out of life with the extended MTR rail line. Jackie Yeung, manager of promotion at MTR, also stresses on the importance of “taking care of the younger population in New Terroritories” suburb of Hong Kong.
Partner and creative director Christine Pong mentions that while offering sufficient information for passengers riding the MTR, the team tries to inject “little touches of humour” to the tactical aspects of how the new railway arrangements really affect everyday life. The circles that are rolling around in the television commercial dramatise on how people can now have time for more colors and excitement in their lives.
One of the key challenges for creative agency Twohundred is to illustrate the boring factual side to the MTR in a young and relevant format. Besides creating a buzz online, outdoor displays and television commercial will be launched this Thursday.
MTR has been aggressively expanding its services and repositioning its corporate image in Hong Kong this year.
