Background

In 2011 Google bought Motorola Mobility. In 2012 they launched their first flagship phone, Moto X with the campaign "Designed by You. Assembled in the USA."

Motorola wanted to extend the Moto X premise of true customization into the print medium and provide an engaging experience for WIRED’s highly connected subscribers. The ad also needed to demonstrate Motorola’s innovative approach to marketing in a very crowded, competitive mobile category. It had to provide tangible evidence of the Motorola brand’s commitment to allowing our end users to express themselves in unique, highly personal ways.

IDEA

Moto X – Interactive Print

An an unlike any other, created with the use of paper-thin components (including a battery, LEDs and a keyboard-like button membrane) to deliver a premium print experience that allows you to change the color of the Moto X device with the touch of a button.

 
 
 
In 2013, I worked on the "Designed by You. Assembled in the USA." campaign for the launch of the Moto X. This limited run interactive print ad ran in Chicago and New York January 2014 issues of Wired Magazine. It was shortlisted at Cannes and won a Bronze Pencil at the One Show.
