Ecovacs Global Launch 2023



2023 Ecovacs Launch Event
'None of your dustiness'


On the evening of August 17th, ECOVACS held its 2023 Strategic New Product Launch Event at the West Bund Art Center in Shanghai. During this event, ECOVACS unveiled three groundbreaking new products: Deebot, Winbot, and Airbot, marking the beginning of a new era of household service robots designed for comprehensive cleaning across various scenarios and surfaces. These three products are set to provide users with a holistic cleaning experience.

For this event, SBF collaborated with HAVAS to create three product showcase videos and opening & countdown videos.



Each video conceptualizes and elevates the product's key features:

DEEBOT X2 - Transforms from a circular shape to a square shape, showing how the robot controls the entire sand and gravel space.
AIRBOT Z2 - Incorporates the vibrant feathers of hummingbirds and unique mobility to highlight the product's key upgrades.
WINBOT W2 - Combines two ships, metaphorically representing the consolidation of the base station and Winbot wires into one, a significant upgrade from the previous generation.


From stage design, art direction, creative concepts, video production, each video seamlessly integrates the unique features of the new products. we visualize the distinctive selling points of the products while embodying the brand philosophy of "None of your dustiness." Through the stage design using CUBE screens and WING screens, a special emphasis was placed on creating an anamorphic effect with CUBE screens, complemented by laser scanning to fully showcase the new products. In addition, we also serve as the show director to provide on-site guidance and adjustments and make sure the integration of show lighting and visuals on the screen achieves the best effect. During post-production, the team station a week in Shanghai to further optimize the videos. SBF meticulously refined every detail, aiming to deliver a visually stunning spectacle for both the client and the audience.

The biggest challenge we faced during this project was

In the AIRBOT Z2 video, the production of the hummingbirds and growing plant was the major focus on how to optimize the simulation of the hummingbird's form, and interaction with the vegetation to achieve a visually perfect representation of nature.

Furthermore, each video required the output of 50 frames at a resolution of a total 17,000 pixels, leading to significant pressure during post-production.

Additionally, due to team members hailing from different countries, efficient time management while striving for perfection was of utmost importance.
