STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN – “It’s just stuff,” reads the slogan of the new campaign by Swedish insurance company Hedvig.
A new campaign featuring stolen bikes, lost luggage and burning dresses, directed by Norwegian directing duo Matias & Mathias and produced by Baconwas launched by Hedvig’s creative department.
“It was fun to work within such a simple, yet strong and conceptual framework, where the whole challenge was to avoid cluttering the ideas and distilling things to their essence,” Matias & Mathias said.
“Hedvig is a new approach to insurance. It’s about freedom and being ok with your life, no matter what happens to you. Everyone should be able to afford to say it’s just stuff when the TV breaks or your bag gets stolen. Just because we’re an insurance company doesn’t mean that we have to worship at the altar of materialism,” said Rebecca Lundin, Marketing Director at Hedvig.
Shot in Copenhagen shortly after Danish society began opening up again, the films are a fun solution to the challenge of shooting a campaign without compromising social distancing.
