Restless OOH!

The youth channel of UTV, Bindass is all set to create a new identity with its changed logo and tag line - “Because there are those who ‘rest-less and then there are the rest…’. This new campaign is aimed to depict today’s youth and their lifestyle. “A key trait that marks youth behavior today is a sense of constant motion; everyone is either going somewhere or doing something all the time. Settling down is fast going down the priority list. The bubbling undercurre­nts of discovery, exploratio­n, invention, challenge, action seem to top that list.

And, their larger-than-life creatives clearly depict the brand’s all new philosophy - ‘Rest less’. The campaign of course is aimed at the super confident youth who wants to achieve and experience everything that is new and challengin­g. UTV is hoping to help them meet their desires and make a difference in their lives. Hence, they are going all out to draw a connection with the audience through this new identity. “The communicat­ion strategy behind this campaign was to spread the channel’s new tagline ‘Rest-less’. It is an extended version of ‘What I am’ tagline that we had earlier. Through this, the idea was to reach out to the restless people who want to do something new. We
