Campaign1.0 was held in Kolkata in the month of May and June’ 2019, organized by Impression. It was first of its kind and was highly appreciated by the mentors and participants. The 4-day workshop was for those who are interested in pursuing their career in advertising and it touched upon every aspect of the advertising industry. All the participants got a holistic understanding of the industry expectations, from identifying brand needs, learning from market research, planning, to cracking creative briefs for final campaign development with hands-on training. According to Sayantani Chaki, co-founder of Impression, “There is always a need for creative minds in advertising agencies, and people joining from different sectors need to have a basic idea of how agencies basically work. They must be aware of the creative process that one has to undergo before making an ad. Impression is a forum for lovers of art and ideas where insights about various creative professions are nurtured, discussed, exchanged and shared. And Campaign1.0 was one of them.”

A curious visual communication designer, Saumya is an illustrator and is currently also driving The India Craft Project that explores creative realms in rural India with a firm belief in collaborative energy for social impact. Her wanderings over the years have introduced her to beautiful art forms like Theyyam in Kerala, Kavad Katha and Pabuji ka Phad in Rajasthan, Ajrakh block printing in Gujarat and more, as she’s grown to envision design with a social fabric. From Advertising to Brand Strategizing to Social Communication Design, she enjoys illustrating people in their spaces – equipped with her 10 Rupees black pens and fuelled by orange juice!
Why are you a Graphic Designer? How did you focus so much on graphic illustrations? During my 10th and 12th class board preparatory leave was my most creative time. I would illustrate intricate sketches to distract myself from the stress and anxiety of these hyped, bigger than life (at the time) exams. I became organized in order to fit in illustrating with studying and it did increase my efficiency considerably. So while initially, I was apprehensive of ‘training’ my hobby towards ‘Graphic Design’, I was lucky to come across a broadening prospect of ‘Visual Communication Design’. For me it extended possibilities of story telling and went beyond aesthetics as I unlearned my biases.
Social communication is an important part of the umbrella of Visual communication Design. For altruistic purposes this branch of design seeks to analyze beyond the ’What’. It’s more interested in pursuing the ’How’ and ’Why’ for actualizing social change and explores a decisive role in morphing practices for better.
The Eurovision song contest is the biggest musical event in the world and this time it’s taking place in sun filled Tel Aviv – the ‘city that never sleeps’. In total, some 18.000 tourists are expected to make their way here. That’s why Para Chocolate, Israel’s national chocolate brand thought up a way of making their stay super sweet and at the same time give them a taste for the place they wouldn’t forget.
Working with one of the country’s best chocolatiers, it created Para Chocolate’s ‘Sweet Advisor’. A map of Tel Aviv made entirely of Para chocolate that not only details the city’s sweetest spots – but the city’s best kept secrets and places only the locals know about but make Tel Aviv what it is.
The map which awaited them on their bed at Brown and Atlas Hotels throughout the city, pinpointed over 10 points of interest in the city including:
The Shuk HaPishpeshim Flea Market – one of the city’s most colorful places where you can find vintage items while walking through the market’s picturesque side streets filled with bars and restaurants.
The Habima Square – one of the city’s most beautiful squares and home to the Habima Theater with its sunken garden in which we recommend sitting and drinking a beer from one of the nearby bars and cafes.
The Rabin Square – where you’ll find the world’s largest concentration of peace doves.
The Brown Bar – Located at the Brown Hotel which offers a real Tel Aviv kind of atmosphere and the best cocktails this side of the Middle East.
While our chocolate is probably too good to share, we’re pretty sure our visiting music fans will share the knowledge with their friends to make sure they have a stay that really rocks!

Children adore being superheroes. They play with superhero dolls and mimic their signature moves, climbing on the couch just to jump off it seconds later in an attempt to fly soaring through the air just like Superman, Wonder Woman or whichever superhero is the latest flavour of the month.
But unlike superheroes, when kids go wild they can get hurt and break an arm. And when that happens, they are the farthest thing from being a hero … and their tears just leave us adults feeling helpless and powerless.
It’s exactly for cases like these, that the Meuhedet Health Fund launched a new and unique Augmented Reality experience: “Little Superheroes”. Starting today, all doctors treating kids for broken arms will apply onto kids’ casts a special band which when scanned through the health fund’s app turns their arm into a bionic arm – complete with laser beams, spikes and other superpowers – just like their favourite heroes. A sure way to make kids’ tears stop almost instantly and ensure that instead of sitting at school in a corner of the playground while their friends play – they are able to take part and become the heroes of the playground.
