Netflix challenging creators to restore its reputation as a positive leader in content creation.

Netflix launched a creative brief challenging creators to restore its reputation as a positive leader in content creation, anchored by the tagline “See What’s Next.”

I responded with a campaign that speaks directly to creatives using their own language—keyboard shortcuts.

Scope

  • Creative Ad
  • copywriting
  • Strategy

Awards & Mentions

  • Ads of the World
command N
esc your comfort zone @AKartwork
return your creative ideas @AKartwork

The Concept:

Each visual pairs a well-known shortcut with an engaging hook-up line, making the message clear yet indirect. The Netflix “N” transforms into a keyboard key, reinforcing the concept of shortcuts leading to inspiration:

  • Command + N → The universal shortcut for starting a new project, aligning with Netflix as the place to kickstart creative ideas.
  • Esc → A nod to how Netflix serves as an escape and a comfort zone.
  • Return → A metaphor for embracing and returning to creativity through storytelling.

This campaign merges digital culture, creative workflow, and entertainment, making Netflix the go-to platform for the next big idea.
