In 1946 <strong>Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita<\/strong> decided to set up a company to create and repair electronic equipment.\u00a0From there was born the <strong>Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering Corporation<\/strong>, aka <strong>Totsuko.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They continued to operate until <strong>1958<\/strong> when they began to use the <strong>Sony brand<\/strong>, a word fruit of the combination of several concepts: From the Latin &#8220;sonus&#8221; and &#8220;sonny boy&#8221; of the popular expression that describes a free and avant-garde person in Japan. Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita began to expand their knowledge to create new markets.<\/p>\n<p>Step by step they created a brand that reflected the vanguard of the Japanese country and became a reference company. It is known that <strong>Steve Jobs took Sony as a role model for Apple<\/strong>. Its minimalist aesthetics, sober design and corporate responsibility are elements that we can recognize in the Apple of this days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Walkman, Discman, Handycam, Playstation or the Triniton TV<\/strong> are some of the most memorable products created by the <strong>Tokyo company.<\/strong> And like big products, they needed <strong>big advertising campaigns.<\/strong> Today we are going to analyze the <strong>five best ads from Sony throughout the history.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Double_life\"><\/span>5.

PlayStation was more than a toy, it was the machine that was going to change the mentality of society regarding videogames. Thus, they launched an aggressive marketing campaign that considered the player an adult person, not a child. With <strong>&#8220;Double Life&#8221; commercial<\/strong> they represented the middle age video game fan who works during the day and transformed at night to live countless adventures. An commercial that captivated the community and bothered those sectors reluctant to video games.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Mountain\"><\/span>4.

Through a combination of video, special effects and vintage music by <strong>Shirley Temple<\/strong>, the ad was considered one of the best of its year. More than 500 extras and 300 people were used in production. The scene served as inspiration for video clips and movies, such as <strong>World War Z.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_For_the_Players_Since_1995\"><\/span>3.

The campaign to announce the release of the Walkman in 1983 was just as bright as the flagship product of the time. The commercial to announce the Walkman had a lot of Apple &#8230; before Apple defined its communication strategy.<\/p>\n<p>A simple, clear and effective commercial where we see the process of <strong>creating the Walkman from a cassette tape.<\/strong> The distribution of the chips, the mechanism and the housing to present a legendary product.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Sony_Balls\"><\/span>1.
