Project Brief

The campaign ad which features a medley of Amr Diab’s most popular songs was a #1 trending video on YouTube with 413 MM impressions and 78 MM views. The campaign was met with overwhelmingly positive public sentiment and significant PR buzz due to organic discussion via celebrities, influencers and consumers. A TikTok challenge invited top TikTok influencers to compete for a chance to meet Amr Diab. In less than a week, this competition incentivized 1000+ users to create submissions. This marks yet another successful partnership between Pepsi and Amr Diab resulting in a disruptive campaign that drives single-serve volume.

This award celebrates creative and innovative design in traditional or digital visual representation of ideas and messages used in packaging. Consideration given to: clarity of communication and the matching information style to audience; the approach, including marketing and branding concerns, the dynamics of the retail environment, environmental considerations, and legal requirements; the component parts of packaging graphics such as colour rationalisation, information layout, feel and tone of illustration and photography, and finishes, and how they are used in isolation and in relation to each other; and the relationship to the anatomy of the structural design.
