Opportunity

The Raclin Murphy Museum of Art provided us with the opportunity to engage with a wide audience, emphasizing their role in enriching the community through the establishment of a new, publicly accessible art museum. While still under construction, the museum wanted to showcase as much of its world-class facility to as many people as possible. They entrusted J2 with the challenge of capturing the essence and vision without it being fully materialized, in the form of a commercial.

Solution

We incorporated Raclin’s branded, rich purple in the background of creative to symbolize the elevated feel of the museum and to capture the audience's attention. Images of the curated items that would be on exhibit were strategically placed on the purple background to pique curiosity about the museum's offerings. The message 'Free to All' was seamlessly integrated into the design to underscore the museum's commitment to accessibility and to encourage people to explore its galleries, fostering a deeper appreciation for art. These advertisements were strategically placed in people's daily environments to ensure that the grand opening remained at the forefront of their minds.

Innovations

J2 developed dynamic designs across multiple mediums, including billboards, digital advertisements, and street banners, characterized by their bold and modern appeal. Strategically positioned throughout the community and extending beyond, from local malls to the bustling streets of Chicago, these advertisements effectively engaged and captivated audiences, drawing attention to the exciting prospect of the new museum. The Studio team utilized music composition, advanced film techniques, and OTT advertising platforms to mobilize an audience further.
