Sharing its light with genomic researchers
As the brand expanded its horizons with the launch of the groundbreaking sequencing instrument NextSeq 2000, our brief was clear: to ignite the imaginations of genomic researchers with the immense potential this instrument held. We conceived the captivating tagline, "The future is created by you,” a rallying cry that urges Illumina's target audience to embark on a journey of sequencing more samples to unveil the unknown. This campaign repositioned NextSeq 2000 as the indispensable tool for exploring their boldest and most brilliant ideas. Our collaboration with Illumina resulted in the creation and execution of a seamlessly integrated campaign spanning branding, packaging, digital platforms, social media, print media, giveaways, and beyond.
