Client Brief Or Objective
Mountain Dew has supported lifting up young people around the world who enjoy skateboarding. In Japan, Mountain Dew had just launched, so we need to make lovers of Mountain Dew. It’s skaters as well. (It's new customers) Therefore, we need to give them fun skating experience, and also need to keep them lifting up continuously.

Implementation
We've created a device. It's called the "MAGIC BOX". People who can not do *“ollie”, can just pose as doing “ollie” on this device, and it will make them look as if they are actually doing “ollie”. We took pictures of people doing “ollie”, and had the popular graffiti artists, who is popular among the skaters, draw on the picture. We printed this on spot and gave it to the skaters in the form of a poster.*“Ollie” is the technique to jump high while riding a skateboard.It's the most significant technique, but it's the most difficult one.
