Apple delivers powerful campaign for Apple Watch, via TBWA Media Arts Lab

Apple has a new campaign via TBWA Media Arts Lab, designed to demonstrate the “life-saving capabilities” of its Apple Watch product.

The announcement:

Apple’s latest campaign, which just went live, showcas[es] a real-life rescue story that demonstrates the potentially life-saving capabilities of Apple Watch.

“Rick’s Rescue” documents the harrowing experience of Byron Bay resident Rick Shearman, an experienced swimmer who found himself pulled 1.6 kilometers out to sea by a dangerous rip current. Unable to battle the exceptionally large waves to return to shore, Rick activated the Emergency SOS feature on his Apple Watch to call Triple Zero, which ultimately led to his helicopter rescue.

The campaign is set to launch across broadcast, digital platforms, and social media.
