PROJECT 1 - CASE STUDY & CAMPAIGN PROPOSAL
Task 1A - Case Study
WEEK 02
In the second week, Mr. Fauzi briefed us on the MIB and introduced Project 1. We were required to analyse a well-established Rebranding Campaign:
1. Identifying its brand strategy: The Brand Story, Objective & Purpose, Brand Values, Vision & Mission, Target Audience, Brand Positioning.
2. Understanding its brand experience: features and activities. 3. Reviewing its key visuals and the applications: identity and usage from different platforms.
We form a group of two to complete the tasks for this module. I teamed up with Kerly, and together we decided to focus on Coach for our project, recognizing it as a strong example of a well-established and successful rebranding campaign.
WEEK 03
In week 3, we had an exercise on our practical session, which is SWOT Analysis.
S (Strengths)
- Innovative Personalization Concept
- Combines digital AR with hands-on customization, creating a unique brand experience.
- Gen Z Relevance: Aligns with Gen Z's desire for self expression, tech integration and identity-based design.
W (Weaknesses)
- Risk of Tech Reliance: Technical issues or poor user interface could affect campaign credibility.
- High Implementation Costs: Developing AR tools and pop-ups globally may require significant investment.
O (Opportunity)
- Boost User-Generated Content (UGC): Encourages viral sharing and community engagement through custom creations.
- Long-Term Loyalty Building
- Expand Digital Product Lines: Potential to introduce new virtual accessories, collectibles.
T(Threats)
- Changing Tech & Fashion Trends : Gen Z attentions shift quickly, the campaign needs constant updates to stay fresh.
Task 1B - Campaign Proposal
WEEK 04
After completing Task 1A, Kerly and I had a deeper understanding of the brand, and we started brainstorming the campaign proposal for Task 1B. The campaign will be for a snack of our choosing and may be conceptualised as a rebranding exercise to introduce a new concept or as a new product line launch.
1. The suggested proposal outline: Campaign Description, Brand Story, Objective & Purpose, Brand Values, Vision & Mission, Target Audience, Organizers. SWOTs, Brand Positioning.
2. Furthermore, we are to identify the Brand Touch Points by producing a Customer Journey Map.

REFLECTION
Project 1 has greatly enhanced my knowledge and practical understanding of branding strategies. Throughout the process, I gained insight into how branding works not only in theory but also in real-world applications. Mr. Fauzi’s demonstrations and professional experiences helped bridge the gap between classroom learning and industry practice, offering us a clearer picture of what it means to be a designer in a branding context. I learned how elements such as storytelling, brand identity, and consumer engagement play a crucial role in building a strong, relatable brand.
One of the most valuable tools I discovered during this project was the SWOT analysis. It helped us critically examine our chosen brand, Coach, and better understand how to align its strengths and opportunities while addressing its weaknesses and threats. By applying what we learned to our tasks, such as defining brand values and campaign direction, we were able to develop a more structured and thoughtful branding proposal. This experience has not only improved my branding skills but also prepared me to apply strategic thinking in future design projects.
