Maseur: The Return of Sven TVC Campaign

Service

Creative Production

Maseur engaged TCA to refresh the creative direction of their heritage footwear brand, with a campaign designed to modernise its image and connect with a younger audience while still honouring its legacy with the iconic Sven character. The objective was to reposition Maseur as the go-to for comfort, style, and everyday wellbeing through an aspirational content rollout.

A one day shoot was shot in a film studio utilising green screen in preparation for high level VFX. TCA managed thr creative direction, casting, styling and production, delivering 2x 15sec TVC’s to be aired on nationwide liner tv and campaign stills for brand owned channels and POS rollout. By pairing modern styling with authentic character-driven storytelling, the visuals reframed Maseur as both timeless and fashion-forward.

The content rollout gave Maseur a renewed presence across digital, social and retail channels. The campaign assets strengthened the brand’s positioning in market and helped reconnect with both loyal customers and new audiences. The result was a body of work that honoured the brand’s history while setting the stage for its future.

Approach

From strategy through to delivery, TCA collaborated with the Maseur team to craft a campaign that balanced playful creativity with brand storytelling. Pre-production involved shaping the creative direction, styling, casting and location planning to ensure the visuals felt fresh while honouring Maseur’s heritage.

The shoot captured both stills and motion, with a strong focus on storytelling moments that could flex across social, digital and retail. Post-production required an intensive level of VFX work, including compositing the Sven character into an army of Maseurs’ marching across the sandal footbed, and creating a larger-than-life foot for Sven to massage. Layered with polished sound design and colour grading, the result was a campaign that merged humour, heritage and craft into a seamless suite of assets.

“Our sandals have been iconic with a history of more than 30-years in Australia. The Team have done an amazing job in reimagining and bringing to life the brand and our character with a cheeky and playful tone that is truly distinctive.” Ed Sugiaman – Brand Manager Maseur
