Overview

Execution

We have made a series of Direct mail designs which recreates famous scenes of memorable moments when Japanese national football team scored a goal at international matches. These designs were hugely inspired by a character of football fans who are very enthusiastic about strategies, tactics, and formations for football. The title of this direct mail is "CROSS TALK". An article which JFA vice-president and Ivica Osim (former national coach of Japan) were "crossing" their various opinion about possibility of Asian football in the interview was written inside the direct mail. Designing original warped envelope which is expressing the route of goal by crossing pass from real football match. By the action of unwrapping envelope, the contents will appear to football lovers.

Outcome

It is success in that the appearance and specifications of the Direct Mail made most people who received them want to look inside. In addition, a game expressed in a Direct Mail became the beginning of a Conversation and publicized the Japan Football Association to football people as an organization that is world most concerned with football.
