What’s ARTE
to you?
2023, brand campaignARTE tv is a German public broadcaster; it is made for the whole of Germany. Thus, when ARTE wanted to roll out its very first brand campaign in its 32 year existence, the question arose: how do you position a media brand that is made by the public, and is funded with public money?
By actively involving the public for which the brand is made, and letting their opinions be the foundation of how ARTE presents itself to the whole of Germany.

In this brand campaign, ARTE did not define herself what she is all about, but the viewers did. Their opinions instantly form Arte’s ever-changing pay-off, resulting in a campaign that positions ARTE as ‘the-cat-channel’, thanks to Emilio who once saw a cat documentary on ARTE, but also as ‘the-no-nonsense-channel’, thanks to Erika and Detlef who just don’t like to watch nonsense.
