Film Descriptor (i.e. describing the film)
The concept of the new Roca TVC brings alive special individual moments and showcases bathroom that caters to elevated lifestyle aspirations of the Indian customer. It shows the protagonist experiencing the bathroom as different living spaces. It opens on the protagonist trying out various outfits, appreciating her looks and establishes the bathroom space as her own personal ‘Showroom’. The Roca bathroom is next seen as her kids ‘Magic Room’ where they are seen experiencing the magic of Roca’s Smart toilet. In the next shot, Roca bathroom is seen to transform into the couple’s love abode as the ‘Heart room’. Moving forward into the film, the woman then uses the bathroom as a ‘Changing Room’ to change her looks and later as her ‘Chat Room’. Towards the end of the TVC, the protagonist is seen using the ‘Shhh Room’ as her escape from the world. The TVC signs off with ‘Roca. My Bathroom.’ The tonality of the TVC is warm, yet very dynamic, taking a consumer-centric approach with a lot of sophistication and premiumness infused in it.
Excerpts from Company Spokesperson-
“Roca is the world leader in the definition of bathroom space and has been accepted very well in India. Moving forward, we want to strengthen the association of Roca with premium bathrooms. The new campaign aims to reinforce our commitment to providing not only products with the most advanced technology and design features but high-quality bathroom solutions and premium experience for the consumers who value excellence. We are very happy with the new campaign idea and intend to amplify it across touchpoints, TV, Print, Digital, Retail et al.” Said KE Ranganathan, Managing Director Designate, Roca Bathroom Products Pvt. Ltd.
Carlos Jorge, General Creative Director, Contrapunto BBDO Madrid adds, “From the very beginning of this project we asked ourselves why anyone would choose a premium brand like Roca to create their bathroom. And within the answer lies the idea for this campaign. If you want your bathroom to be as important as the rest of your house, if you want it to be this intimate space your share with you partner, the space where you see you children grow, to be your own personal spa where you seek renewal after a hard day at work, or at times the place where you can find your very own new look, then you are not only looking for a bathroom, but the chance to create a space as personal and particular as your living room, the children’s room or your bedroom. Roca gives you all the options to create your individual bathroom space, where every detail is a reflection of your style and the way you understand your life.”
