For the launch of the EZTrak Z600 Series zero-turn mower and 1 Series subcompact utility tractor, GSD&M recently rolled out two campaigns for John Deere with one overarching message: John Deere equipment allows people to see and do what’s possible with their lawns. In the “Evolve” campaign, time-lapse photography is used to reveal the process behind improving, changing and beautifying a piece of property overtime. The “Lucky” campaign seeks to show the benefits of the EZTrak and 1 Series equipment through demonstration of product features.
Lucky
Get a load of the latest wave of John Deere equipment. With more bells and whistles than a guy could dream up, this campaign just shows the machine going thru it’s paces, and describes in a fun way how we must be the luckiest generation of John Deere owners ever.
Evolve
No matter how big or how small their property, John Deere owners love their land. Through time lapse photography and a little bit of special effects, we show what’s possible to create with a John Deere through the years.
