Shotopop recently teamed up with JWT Shanghai to take cardboard cut-outs to the next level.The project recently won us an Outdoor, as well as a Design Lion at the International Cannes Lions Awards.
We were asked to develop and build 3 pieces, made up from the cardboard of ANTA shoe-boxes, to represent 3 prominent Chinese Basketball players, sponsored by ANTA.
The “Chinese Beast”, Li Xiaoxu‘s playing style is fast, fearless and powerful. His sculpture, made up predominantly from elements of wings, feathers and lightning, shows exactly that.
With exceptional low post skills, Tang Zhengdong is an “Irremovable pillar in the sea“, which indicates an ancient Chinese proverb for hero. The spiral staircase of courts represents his rise in the CBA, from the young age of 16
Zhou Peng has already won 6 CBA Championships, represented by the golden stars on his sculpture. His relentless defences and explosive ferocity makes him a force to be reckoned with.
Here are some images we made for Shop-Around, our rock-star agents in the Netherlands.
“If we could take one thing from this city, and another from that one, here’s our idea of a (close to) perfect society. Don’t think too hard about the reality of this scenario…” SKY MAGAZINE, January 2011
We helped the nice people from SKY travel magazine to by illustrating their idea of Utopia. The city combines weather from Mexico,Vineyards from Cape Town, Culture from New York, cuisine from Rome and other bits and bobs from Ibiza, Tokyo, Stockholm, Helsinki and Amsterdam. Sounds like a nice place to live…

We’ve teamed up with copywriting superhero, Pieter Rossouw, to create some fun MO-sters for Movember! We’re selling them online, and all proceeds of MOsters sold up to 30 Nov will be donated to the Movember Cause. So support the fight agains prostate cancer and buy a MO-ster on
Here’s an extract from the posters:
In the beginning God created Adam. And from Adam’s top lip He let sprout a Mo. At that moment, God created man. Henceforth the mighty symbol of virility and strength carried man to his destiny. Neither grand king nor fearless warrior would dare set foot on battlefield without his burly banner of top lip bristle. Yes it is even said that without his Mo, Alexander the Great, was simply called Al. And that the only reason Genghis Khan was made ruler of the entire Mongol Empire, was because he could sprout a Mo at will. So man of today, be you not afraid of ridicule, make you not your naked face the norm. Grow your Mo proud and grow it long. Because, it is your destiny!
What fun!
