The world\u2019s leading diamond producers, Diamond Producers Association relaunched as the Natural Diamond Council (NDC) to promote the desirability of natural diamonds and support the integrity of the natural diamond industry.\u00a0As an industry authority, the NDC aims to become the go-to digital publisher for innovative content covering all that\u2019s new and exciting in the industry. With the repositioning of the brand, NDC has launched\u00a0their first ever celebrity-led TVC campaign, \u2018For Moments Like No Other\u2019, with the gorgeous\u00a0Hollywood\u00a0actress\u00a0Ana de Armas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This new campaign marks a number of firsts for the Natural Diamond Council, in addition to welcoming its first\u00a0Hollywood\u00a0headliner. It is the first celebrity-fronted campaign for a diamond group (brand agnostic), adding an important contribution to an industry that supports the livelihoods of roughly 10 million people worldwide. This is also the first campaign dedicated to NDC\u2019s \u201cOnly Natural Diamonds\u201d platform, and the first marketing initiative to showcase such a diverse roster of Jewellery designers that work with natural diamonds in exceptionally modern ways.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ana De Armas, a rising\u00a0Hollywood\u00a0star, shines in the multi-part campaign, which was developed to celebrate the myriad connections that lead to natural diamonds being worn or exchanged. Ana\u2019s elegant, effervescent and easygoing demeanor reflects the next chapter in the history of natural diamonds; a mindset in which the traditional tenets of diamond-wearing and exchanging are dismantled, leaving an open playing field in their place. Ana is seen in laid-back outdoor settings with friends, with a parent, and with a partner. In this, a fresh, opened-up association continues to be emphasized: diamonds are not solely the purview of romantic interests or formal occasions. They are meant for every type of connection. The campaign, which was lensed in coastal\u00a0Portugal, directed by\u00a0Manu Cossu\u00a0and photographed by Camilla \u00c5krans will have a global presence, running in\u00a0India,\u00a0the United States of America,\u00a0United Kingdom\u00a0and\u00a0China. In\u00a0India, it was launched with a digital first strategy on OTT platforms starting 19th September to target the affluent, informed luxury consumer and will release on television on leading premium Hindi & English channels. The campaign\u2019s 30-second hero spot aired at the IPL will be complemented by a series of shorter video segments, spotlighting the various relationships portrayed from the clip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI love thinking of diamonds this way, as special emblems of even our small personal moments,\u201d said\u00a0Ms.\u00a0Ana de Armas<\/strong>. \u201cThey represent joy, warmth and beauty.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Richa Singh, Managing Director, NDC,\u00a0India,<\/strong>\u00a0said: \u201cIt was a challenge to put together the brand and campaign launch when the world is going through such tough times, but it has been a rewarding experience. The campaign fits perfectly as consumers have greater respect for everything natural and want to buy fewer but better things. They are looking for things that last and have a meaning and emotion attached to it. We wish to create desirability for diamonds in the mind of consumers when it comes to celebrating life\u2019s every moment and our campaign featuring\u00a0Ana De Armas\u00a0portrays that beautifully. The TVC redefines special moments, celebrating a variety of personal connections with natural diamonds.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Link to the campaign \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>https:\/\/youtu.be\/SfQJiGJO5Bo<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n The new digital platform\u00a0www.onlynaturaldiamonds.in<\/a>\u00a0focus is on inspiring and educating consumers globally about the values and heritage of natural diamonds as well as promoting their desirability.
