TECNO launches Camon i ad campaign
Mumbai: TECNO Mobile, a premium smartphone brand from TRANSSION India, has launched its ad campaign for Camon i. The TVC is a part of the 360-degree campaign for TECNO’s Camon i, its first smartphone in India under the global flagship Camon series. The campaign is created in association with Creativeland Asia Pvt. Ltd our creative partners. It is directed by Kartik Ramnathkar and produced by Mayur Goel.
Set in various situations, locations and times of a day, this uber cool, upbeat TVC very smartly captures the Camon I brand positioning – ‘Magic in any light’. The TVC highlights a day in a girl’s life with her pictures, right from Morning to night. The TVC covers her ‘Good Morning’ selfie to a breakfast picture, to an auto selfie, to at her work selfie, to a sunset picture with her boyfriend, one at a café and at last some fun party pictures at night with her friends in 30 seconds, the TVC aptly shows off Camon i’s camera prowess of capturing Magical shots in any light.
Commenting on the launch of the TVC, TRANSSION India senior vice president (marketing) Gaurav Tikoo said, “Seizing the fun and worthwhile moments in a day and sharing it with one’s friends and folks is a trend of this insta-age. Riding on this trend, TECNO’s Camon i series has been designed for the spirited people who like to keep up with such drifts in a generation. Apart from that, we are also focused on upping the ante for smartphone photography and its picture quality. In this context, now anyone can create magic at any time of the day with Camon i’s ‘Tecnomagic’ camera. Through this TVC, the idea was to bring its superlative camera features to the fore and highlight Camon i’s brand promise ‘Magic in any light’.”
Added Creativeland Asia chief creative officer Anu Joseph, “Two truths define this film. The first one is that young people today document their entire lives on their smartphone cameras. And the second truth is that TECNO Camon i has some of the greatest features on both its cameras that make it the best to take pictures in any kind of light (you should actually see the pictures it can shoot in the lowest of lights to believe it). The film is a portrayal of both these truths.”
Adding to the insights, the ad will air from the 24th of Jan 2018. It is a six-week campaign, with targeted genres of GEC, Hindi/English Movies, News and Music. The TVC will be aired in various regions-Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Maharashtra, West Bengal in addition to the regular English and Hindi across the country.
NATIONAL: Amazon Ads has laid out a sharply tech-led vision for the advertising industry in 2026, arguing that artificial intelligence, streaming TV and creator partnerships will combine to turn brand building into a more precise, performance-driven business.
At the heart of the shift, the company says, is the fusion of AI with Amazon’s vast trove of shopping, browsing and streaming signals, allowing advertisers to move beyond blunt reach metrics to campaigns designed around real customer behaviour.
“The future of advertising is not about reaching more people, but the right people with messages that resonate,” said Amazon Ads India head and vice president Girish Prabhu. “By combining AI with deep customer insights, we help brands move from broadcasting campaigns to having meaningful conversations wherever audiences spend their time.”
One of the biggest changes, according to Amazon Ads, will be the collapse of the wall between media planning and creative development. Retail media, powered by first-party data, is increasingly shaping everything from brand discovery to final purchase, pushing marketers to design campaigns around audience insight rather than internal instinct.
AI is also moving from a support tool to a creative engine. Agentic AI, which automates and accelerates production, is expected to make high-quality creative accessible even to small businesses, compressing weeks of work into hours and giving challengers the ability to compete with larger brands on speed and scale.
Behind the scenes, AI-driven analytics will take on a bigger role in campaign optimisation, identifying patterns, spotting opportunities and recommending actions that would previously have required teams of analysts.
Streaming TV is another big battleground. With India’s video streaming audience now above 600 million and connected TV users at 129.2 million in 2025, advertisers are set to treat streaming not just as a branding channel but as a performance engine, measured increasingly by sales, sign-ups and bookings rather than just reach.
Finally, Amazon Ads sees creators and contextual advertising reshaping how brands tell stories. Creators will act less like influencers and more like long-term partners, while scene-aware ads on streaming platforms will allow brands to insert hyper-relevant offers into the flow of what viewers are watching.
Taken together, Amazon Ads argues, these shifts mark a move towards advertising that is both more human and more measurable, where AI handles the complexity, and creativity does the persuading.
