It's hard to contemplate what goes into the magical devices we carry around with us nowadays, isn't it? Maps, photo album, camera, video editing studio, cinema, audio library, Hitchhikers Guide... the multitude of uses for the modern-day phone makes it difficult to believe we existed without them.
Rather than exemplifying how to utilise the Swiss-army-knife nature of a handset, this smart campaign for mobile brand Oppo from W+K Shanghai instead focusses on the creative (and fantastical) ways such a lot is crammed into such a little.
Directed with playful glee by Academy ones-to-watch Us (on a bit of a streak, following their charming McDonald's work), this journey into the Ingenious Factory crams as many ideas into its 40 seconds as the wizardy workers do into their cells.
