Transcript of Fila "It's Only Banter" Campaign
Fila Bureau of Investigation
Michael Gregor & James Perea
Brief Summary
• Bring Fila to a new generation of „geezers‟ – 16-25 year old males with a passion for 80‟s Casuals fashion.
• Simultaneously portray women as equals in a male dominated scene, promoting Fila‟s female clothing range and attracting a female following.
• Avoid hooliganism, excessive violence and swearing to reflect the changing nature of football culture, which is now starting to focus on equality and witty banter rather than violence and bigotry.
Positioning

Target Audience
• The male audience we are trying to attract are affluent geezers. They have spending power and are very much involved in football culture.
• Frank Skinner and Tim Lovejoy are two good examples of the type of male our advertising is aimed at.
Target Audience
• The female audience we are trying to attract are affluent ladettes. They also have spending power and are in touch with football culture.
• Kirsty Gallacher and Helen Chamberlain are good examples of the type of female our advertising is aimed at – Chamberlain, who presents TV show SoccerAM, is a devoted Torquay FC fan and is skilled at both darts and poker.
Concept
• The Fila Bureau of Investigation are a fictional secret agency dedicated to stamping out pansy behaviour.
• The style of this campaign is graphic novel/film noir, similar to films Sin City, Kill Bill and The Warriorz.
• The agency‟s enforcers (see left) collect evidence before bringing in persistent offenders. Rarely, when the case is serious, felons are brought before The Gaffer.

Fila Man-management
Social Networking
• We created a Facebook profile for The Gaffer. This shows an insight into what he looks like and what he‟s all about.
• Then from this profile we created a group called „Fila Man-management‟ –The Gaffer wants you to bring him pictures, stories, jokes and banter about your fairy friends.
FILASHAMED
Print / Ambient Ads
• This series of print ads are
leaked photo evidence of The
Fairy‟s pansy-like behaviour, all
of which have been branded by
the agency‟s „FILASHAMED‟
stamp of conviction.
FILASHAMED
Print / Ambient Ads
• These print ads will be strategically placed in busy places such as Tube stations, in a manner as if somebody had actually put the pictures up by hand, pinning or blue-tacking over the top of the poster cases rather than inside them.
• This creates an ambient effect that somebody to do with the Fila Bureau of Investigation is actually out there, which brings the story to life.
FILASHAMED
Print / Ambient Ads
• This also doubles as a print
campaign for men‟s magazines
such as FHM, Loaded, NME,
Mixmag, World Soccer, etc.
The Fairytale
Viral Ad
• „Friday‟ by Rebecca Black has received over 141 million views on YouTube. The „Related Videos‟ are also viewed in their millions.
The Fairytale
Viral Ad
• Here is the story of a Rebecca
Black fan whose dance blog to
„Friday‟ goes terribly wrong...
The Fairytale
Viral Ad
• The video will be tagged on Youtubewith words such as “Fairytale Fila Viral Advert Rebecca Black Friday Fila Bureau of Investigation The Gaffer”.
• As the idea spreads, it is then easy to find, whether you stumble across it searching for “Rebecca Black Friday” or are searching for it as a Fila viral.
Music
• Research into the Casuals subculture within which Fila is rooted suggests that after football, a Casual‟s next favourite pastime is music.
• We decided to match a more contemporary style of music than the usual 80‟s soundtracks in order to bring Fila into the present age.
Thank you for your co-
operation. Have a nice day.
