VW ID. Launch
SBF was the lead creative for the entire launch set up design and launch concept for the VW ID.4 launch in china. Tasked with creating the next level in launch impact, we created a totally new stage concept with mirror screens and a kinetic ceiling together with a 2000 drone viral stunt to achieve the highest viewership pf a live launch event we have ever done.

"Are you a game changer or just a (fast) follower?"
“ID. is the Game Changer”
At one time or another all great leaders experience something so big and so impactful it literally changes the landscape – it’s what we call a “game changer.” A game changer is that ah-ha moment where you see something others don’t. It’s the transformational magic that takes you from ordinary to exceptional.
Game changers are disruptive and innovative. They are more ambitious, with stretching vision and enlightened purpose. They see challenges as kaleidoscopes of infinite possibilities, assembling and defining them to their advantage. They find their own space, then shape it in their own vision. Most of all they have great ideas. They outthink their competition, thinking bigger and different.
SBF believes this is the attitude all elements should follow in our show. And this core idea will be the “red line” in our story telling.

Manifesto
Outthink the competition: Change your future
Outthinking the competition, with ideas that can change the world. Hello ID.!
Disrupt: Change your strategy
Finding your own space, with a strategy that disrupts the future.
Inspire: Change your brand
The New ID. is about people not products, about making life better.
Design: Game Changing design in two forms.
Whilst the electric platform is revolutionary in its self the biggest benefits come from its ability to adapt. The two new ID.4 cars show how this is possible.
Enable: Change your experience
Delivering customer experiences that enable them to achieve more.
Amplify: Change your potential
Leaders amplify the potential of their people and organizations.
