Starcom MediaVest Group Philippines on shortlist for Festival of Media Asia Pacific Awards

MANILA – January 28, 2014 – The shortlist for the 2014 Festival of Media Asia Pacific Awards has been announced today, with Starcom MediaVest Group Philippines making the list in three different categories.

 
The media agency’s campaign, ‘UHP First Step to Livelihood’ for United Home Products (UHP) was shortlisted under the following categories: Best Engagement Strategy, Best Event/ Experiential Campaign, and The Utility/ Public Service Award.
 
Through the campaign, UHP came up with a livelihood program to help communities develop skills in order to make extra money, which they could use to purchase items that would improve their family’s health.
 
John Sintras, chairman of the Global Product Committee of Starcom MediaVest Group, told adobo in a previous interview that the campaign was done using the company’s experience creation framework, which is used to design communication experiences that are great from a consumer perspective. "How do we design work for today’s landscape that isn’t just about selling stuff, that really is about something useful and beneficial for the community that they really want to be a part of?" Sintras said. 
 
The campaign, he said, centered on the insight that one could not sell non-essential things, such as vitamins, to people who don’t have a disposable income. "What is that unique human inspiration or insight that gets you to do work that’s not just advertising, it is actually about human experience – helping people’s lives, actually adding value to their lives and as a result, the product naturally gets integrated," Sintras said.
