Project overview

“I Love This Boat” reimagined the Princess Cruises brand with a whimsical, world-building approach. Inspired by the mythology of the sea, we introduced the Sea Witch—an enchanting figure whose flowing form revealed the destinations and wonder of cruising. The campaign launched across paid social, in-cabin screens, and even physical touchpoints on board.

The Challenge

  • Modernize the brand while maintaining luxury positioning
  • Appeal to both existing and new cruise demographics
  • Create cohesive experiences across digital and physical touchpoints

Outcome

  • Our efforts resulted in a 20% increase in link clicks compared to previous campaigns, significantly enhancing brand affinity and user engagement across paid social channels
  • We also contributed to stronger performance in the booking funnel

I helped bring Princess Cruises’ “I Love This Boat” campaign to life through animated storytelling and social-first assets. The campaign captured the enchantment of cruise life—blending destinations into the silhouette of a mystical Sea Witch representing the brand’s spirit of exploration.

Social Media

Created platform-optimized assets for Instagram, TikTok, and Meta—short-form looping videos and animated teasers that built intrigue and boosted shares.

Physical Experience & Merchandise

The Sea Witch visual system extended into branded merchandise (totes, towels, menus), in-room postcards, deck signage, and elevator wraps—creating a cohesive storytelling experience from screen to sea.
