Cultural / Context information for the jury

This year Porsche took a brave new step into the world of E-Mobility and launched their first all-electric Porsche, the Taycan. The car was both an engineering, and a communications challenge for Porsche. Many were unaware of it. And it had to convince both petrol-heads AND people with little experience or interest in the Porsche brand, that an all-electric car could still feel like a Porsche. But first, we had to tease the world, and let them know that electricity, and Porsche were about to come together to create something special. These prints were crafted for a range of different audience types to be placed in relevant media spaces, they were composed as letters from Porsche to electricity. Letting it know that it was appreciated, and that we weren’t going to let its contributions to society go unrewarded.

Hey electricity, It’s a thankless job. You’re the graveyard shift manager and the morning clean-up crew. Tirelessly shredding paper and delivering mail after mail. You’ve invested the time. Paid more than your dues. Now it’s time you got a little gratitude. Thrilling, exhilarating, pulse-racing gratitude. Raw, unbridled, beautiful gratitude. For all the thankless jobs you do, We’ve put together a fitting thank you. Hey electricity, prepare to jump-start your soul. The first all-electric Porsche coming soon. The Taycan. Soul, electrified.
