In March we launched the Flair Fashiontag, an application for Belgian Women’s magazine Flair. It was one of the first cases that was ever featured on the Facebook Studio website, right after Facebook launched it. And today Duval Guillaume Modem is in the spotlight again on the Facebook Studio with some more background on the application and the strategy behind it. Something for which Facebook had a chat with our own Mattijs Devroedt, Strategic Planner at Duval Guillaume Modem.

Curious? Check out the interview on Facebook Studio.

Yesterday evening two of our most recent campaigns were rewarded at the prestigious EFFIE Awards. Which – of course – makes us very proud: it’s our 15th EFFIE Award since 2002. It makes us Belgium’s most EFFIE rewarded agency of this decade and confirms Duval Guillaume’s efficient creativity approach. Creativity not for the fun of it, but a great campaign idea, sharp media insight and excellent production execution, all anchored on an innovative strategic insight. Creativity that stands out and helps our clients business to be more successful.

Our Drink milk now for later campaign for VLAM Melk (the Milk Board of Flanders) was awarded a Gold EFFIE. The judges mainly praised the innovative strategic insight that milk allows you to stay flexible your whole life, and the consistency with which the strategy was translated to strong creative work. These two factors eventually lead to fantastic results with proven effect of communication: we succeeded to establish the first growth in milk consumption in Flanders in decades.

With the campaign Coffee and Lotus Speculoos, always together we won a Silver EFFIE. The strategic choice to grow Lotus Speculoos by focusing all our communication efforts consistently on one consumption moment, the coffee moment, proved to be effective and lead to significant growth with remarkable ROI results.

Public bus company De Lijn has launched a new campaign showing it’s smarter to take the bus or tram. Kick off is a commercial showing a group of ants beating an aardvark in a clever way. Pay-off : It’s smarter to travel in group, take the bus. The 3D-production was done by CC (Creative Conspiracy). De Lijn is also working on an smartphone game  featuring the ants of the commercial.

In follow up campaigns, De Lijn will also give the proof why it’s smarter to travel in group. These campaigns will focus on the nature friendliness of public transport and the fact that taking the bus gets you faster through traffic and helps you to get rid of the stress of finding a parking space.

Young women don’t drink enough Milk, although they all know the risk of getting osteoporosis at a later age. How can we reach these young women? We address them at a moment they are sensitive for messages about their health: right after they have given birth.

Staying in shape is about healthy food, but also about getting enough exercise. Milk wanted to help with them both, so we developed Milk MamaMoves, a fitness program all young mums can do using their baby as fitness weight. Now they can get in shape, without losing quality time with their newborn baby. Because the baby gains weight daily, the exercises will get harder every day. Milk MamaMoves is developed with FitClass and comprises 27 exercises that can be viewed online on www.drinkmelk.be or ordered on DVD for free. You can also order a baby bodysuit with the weight of your baby printed on it.

At the Belgian CCB awards Duval Guillaume was called on stage 21 times. Awards were won in all categories and for all major clients.

“New York Streetnames”, a fundraising idea for the homeless of New York, has been entered for the Cannes Lions Good Work Competition, a new category awarding proactive ideas for Non Profit Organisations. Best entries will be selected by a professional jury and will get a chance to be presented to the chosen organisation.

There is a good reason why the streets in New York City have no name. It gives us the opportunity to turn New York from the city where the streets have no name and the homeless have no future, into the city where the streets have a name and the homeless have a future. Famous people, brands and organisations will get the opportunity to name a New York Street after them. In an ideal world the city of New York would concede in posting those streetnames for a year. In an even more ideal world enough money will be raised to do something fundamental for the homeless and poor in New York.

With the GPS iPhone app “Safest Route” , insurance company Ethias wants to offer its clients a safe alternative for the shortest and the fastest route.

The route planner gives an auditive warning everytime you approach a dangerous point on Belgian roads. It can do so, because Ethias is the first to use the official list of dangerous points in Belgium and integrate it in a route planner.

Users also have the ability to add so-called black points themselves. With the “Safest Route” Ethias wants to be there for their clients even before anything happens.

To launch the new Olvarit ingredient range (a Nutricia babyfood brand) we selected 20 babies within the Olvarit client database and organized an exclusive baby-tasting-dinner in the famous Belgian Michelin starred restaurant ‘De Pastorie’.

Young parents all over Belgium rely on Nutricia babyfoods every day. And now, Nutricia has found a way to support mums even before their baby is born – with Baby Connection: a unique iPhone app that helps gets the dad more involved in the pregnancy.

Baby Connection works best when you use it as a couple. There’s a mum version and a dad version – and everything each parent adds is automatically synced with their partners’ phone. The app can even transform two iPhones into one big screen.

Have a look at the demo to see how it works:

To launch Baby Connection, we came up with a campaign that’s as unique as the app itself. Have a look at what we did here:
