DSW / Seasonal work
A body of seasonal campaign work built to make the product feel timely before the season arrives.
The relationship
The work has to create the feeling of the season before customers are actually living it.
DSW needed campaign assets ready before customers were living the season. We built photo and film around those moments, from back-to-school energy to winter product stories produced before Toronto had snow on the ground.
The approach
For winter, that meant creating the weather ourselves. For back to school, it meant making the shoes feel part of the return, not pasted onto it.
The outputs flexed across digital, social, web, print and in-store. The common thread was simple: make the product feel like it belongs to the moment people are about to enter.
