Overview

Description

We chose the claim “Dance against prejudice” to highlight how Tanec Praha performances comment on the most recent political and social problems through dance. This message helped us present Tanec Praha as a unique experience that can enrich any viewer.

Execution

To give the heavy themes some lightness, we took the key scenes from this year’s Tanec Praha performances and redrew them using the classical Ligne Claire technique. Each of the illustrated scenes look light and simple, contrasting with a powerful statement that explains the meaning behind the performance.

Outcome

For the first time ever in the past 29 years, Tanec Praha appeared not just in culture related media, but in the mainstream as well. The campaign’s focus on social commentary sparked interest not only among long term fans but more importantly, reached even wider audience.
