MUMBAI: Viacom18 has launched a corporate brand film titled ‘Open New Worlds’. Conceptualised by Leo Burnett Orchard, the film commemorates the entertainment conglomerate’s completion of 10 years in India. The film will have an integrated reach and will be activated on touch points like outdoor, digital, in addition to the Viacom18 network.

The montage film portrays the impact Viacom18’s lines of business have had on Indians across geographies, different ages, backgrounds, platforms, cultures and interests through its properties on air, online, on ground, in shop and through cinema. The narrative of the film is held together by an inspiring rendition of the brand philosophy in the title track sung by singer Jubin Nautiyal.

Viacom18 head of communications and CSR Sonia Huria says, “While deliberating on the singular theme that would best describe the corporate brand salience, the one thought that kept resurfacing throughout our varied businesses and brands was how Viacom18 has been encouraging everyday Indians to explore possibilities, push their own boundaries, embrace opportunities and challenge norms. This was the genesis of the brand promise of ‘Open New Worlds’.”

Leo Burnett Orchard executive creative director Amod Dani adds, “This project has been an interesting challenge right from the start. How do you introduce a decade-old media company, with immensely famous brands in its fold, that defines entertainment across genres, platforms and cultures, with a film that is more than just a corporate statement? The inspiring brand ethos that reflects the belief of the company helped us outline how each of Viacom18’s individual brands change lives of Indians every day. And how unlikely audiences connect with content, merchandise and derive inspiration and joy. Creating ‘Open New Worlds’ has been a highlight of our journey with the group, one that will live with us for a long time.”
