Google悄悄進軍好萊塢 提升品牌星級形象

Google最近啟動了一個名為「100 Zeros」的電影及電視製作計劃,目標係透過娛樂內容推廣佢哋嘅產品同科技形象,特別係向年輕觀眾展現一個正面嘅科技世界觀。呢個計劃係Google同Range Media Partners合作嘅多年項目,Range係一家著名嘅製作公司,曾經製作過《A Complete Unknown》同《Longlegs》等電影。Range負責甄選Google可以資助或參與製作嘅電影及電視項目,範圍涵蓋劇本片同紀錄片等。

Google希望透過「100 Zeros」計劃,吸引創意圈採用佢哋最新嘅科技產品,例如可以睇3D場景嘅Immersive View、結合實體與虛擬世界嘅空間工具,以及人工智能技術。更重要係,Google想透過娛樂媒介向年輕一代塑造科技嘅正面形象,影響大眾文化。

去年,「100 Zeros」首次嘗試係支持獨立恐怖片《Cuckoo》,由Neon製作,主演係因《Euphoria》及《飢餓遊戲》系列走紅嘅Hunter Schafer。片頭顯示咗「100 Zeros」嘅標誌,雖然Google冇主動宣傳,但呢個合作展示咗佢哋想結合獨立製作商同針對Z世代嘅內容嘅策略。今年春天,Google同Range又推出「AI On Screen」計劃,委託拍攝有關人工智能嘅短片,目標係將其中兩部發展成長片,其中一部《Sweetwater》講述一位已故名人之子發現母親遺留嘅人工智能秘密,探索親情同科技嘅關係。

Google發言人表示:「我哋同Range嘅合作,係希望以負責任嘅態度支持創意表達,並透過故事講述探索科技嘅可能性。」

Google想令Android手機成為潮流象徵

喺參與早期項目時,Google希望角色會使用Android手機,而唔係iPhone,並且自然使用Google嘅特色功能,例如「Circle to Search」。不過,產品植入唔係「100 Zeros」嘅核心重點。Google另有同United Talent Agency合作嘅市場推廣計劃,曾經喺《白蓮花酒店》(The White Lotus)同音樂劇《Wicked》之中推廣Pixel手機。

「100 Zeros」會以提升公眾對Google產品及服務嘅好感度作為成功指標。雖然Google喺全球手機市場佔有主導地位,但喺美國市場仍被Apple超越。Apple憑藉奢華形象同藍色訊息泡泡,喺Z世代中建立強大粉絲群,令Android用戶感覺被排斥。iPhone更成為多部熱播劇集嘅文化符號,例如《繼承之戰》(Succession)同《利刃出鞘》(Knives Out)。根據Piper Sandler春季調查,美國有88%嘅青少年擁有iPhone。

除咗手機,Google搜尋亦喺年輕人中失去部分影響力,因為佢哋越嚟越多轉向使用人工智能、亞馬遜同TikTok等平台尋找答案。

Google唔打算用YouTube做主要發行渠道

現時越來越多消費品牌利用好萊塢式嘅娛樂內容來傳播訊息,因為傳統廣告越嚟越難吸引觀眾注意。對資金有限嘅好萊塢而言,呢種合作非常受歡迎。品牌通常會依靠有經驗嘅電影製作人同代理商開發或製作項目,部分品牌例如寶潔、WeTransfer更會設立內部團隊專注此類製作。Google嘅「100 Zeros」有啲似Nike旗下Waffle Iron Entertainment,專門打造符合品牌目標嘅原創娛樂內容,但係獨立運作。

「100 Zeros」由少量全職員工組成,包括Range嘅電影製作人Penny Lin、開發主管Casey Durant同Tony Nguyen,Range嘅合夥人兼經理Rachel Douglas負責同Google嘅合作關係。Google方面聯絡人係新興內容體驗總監Jonathan Zepp。Douglas話:「呢個計劃特別之處係由嚟自好萊塢嘅全職人員組成,並由Range支持。」

然而,品牌同電影嘅合作未必長久。部分品牌因應特朗普政府嘅關稅政策同對多元包容(DEI)嘅攻擊,已經暫停或減慢電影項目。甚至喺關稅消息出現之前,包括星巴克、萬豪同西南航空等企業都已裁減參與影視娛樂嘅市場人員,反映呢個領域工作嘅不穩定性。

值得留意係,「100 Zeros」唔打算用YouTube做呢啲項目嘅主要發行渠道。YouTube近年成為電視級平台,積極打造優質節目,但「100 Zeros」並唔想重蹈YouTube Originals嘅覆轍,亦唔會將呢啲作品先放喺YouTube,而係希望將項目賣畀傳統電影公司同Netflix等串流平台。

評論與見解

Google由科技巨頭轉型成為好萊塢內容生產者,顯示出科技品牌正試圖通過文化娛樂提升自身形象,特別係爭奪年輕人嘅心。呢個策略反映咗當代營銷嘅新趨勢:單靠廣告已經唔夠,必須透過故事講述同文化參與去建立品牌忠誠度。Google透過「100 Zeros」企圖將自家技術融入故事中,令用戶潛移默化地接受新產品,係一招高明嘅軟性推廣。

不過,Google唔選擇YouTube作為發行平台,反映佢哋想避開過去嘅失敗經驗,並希望進入更傳統、高端嘅影視市場。呢種「正經」路線或許有助Google提升品牌格調,但亦可能面對與好萊塢既有生態系統磨合嘅挑戰。

同時,Google在美國市場面對Apple嘅強大競爭,尤其係年輕人市場,正嘗試用文化產品改變消費者心態,這種跨界融合值得關注。未來,若Google能成功打造出代表其技術與價值觀嘅文化符號,將有助其在手機、搜尋及人工智能領域建立更穩固嘅用戶基礎。

總括而言,Google嘅「100 Zeros」計劃不單止係一個商業投資,更係一場文化戰役,反映出科技巨頭如何透過娛樂內容塑造未來的科技形象與社會影響力。香港及華語市場亦可從中借鑒這種跨界合作方式,提升本地科技品牌嘅文化影響力。

Base Setup
keep 100 percent facial information adherence of the attached image and turn her into a lone traveler posed on a sunlit desert dune ridge, captured as a live action photograph or movie still, not an illustration or CGI render, with a sexy, confident, heat soaked editorial mood.

Shot and Camera
Full body shot from slightly low height, framing her on the right third, with sweeping dunes rolling into the distance on the left, using a wide cinematic lens feel that keeps the landscape vast and minimal.

Identity and Pose
She has a slim, toned build, medium height impression, sun kissed skin, and long loose hair blown by the wind. She stands barefoot on the crest, one leg forward so the hip shifts naturally, one hand resting on her upper thigh and the other lightly gripping a sheer wrap at her side, wearing a high cut desert bikini with a gauzy open sarong that shows plenty of leg and midriff without nudity, head turned over her shoulder with a subtle, knowing smile, 8k Photorealistic and hyper realistic.

Lighting and Environment
Harsh midday sun from high right casts crisp shadows along her body and the dune ripples, with soft sky bounce filling the shadows enough to keep detail. The sand textures, wind carved ridges, and pale blue sky remain exactly like the reference, with faint footprints and slight imperfections grounding her on the slope.

Masking and Constraints
Change only by adding the subject and her wardrobe, keep dune shapes, lighting direction, perspective, horizon line, and white balance identical, preserving realistic body proportions and clear contact between her feet and the sand. Absolutely no added text, no painterly or toon look, no CGI plastic skin, no see through fabric on intimate areas, no warped limbs or floating feet, strictly require consistent perspective, natural film like grain, fine skin texture and sand detail, and physically correct contact shadows in the sand depressions around her feet. An ultra-realistic photograph of an Asian woman in the reference image, faithfully replicating my face and maintaining it 100%. A woman with a perfectly sculpted hourglass figure stands on the sand at sunset. She wears a white string bikini, measuring,+++ accentuating her curves with a well-defined waist, hips, and toned figure. Her skin is fair, smooth, and radiant.

She stands next to a large, ornate gold-framed mirror, perched upright on the sand, fully revealing her reflection. The reflection clearly emphasizes her silhouette, curves, and body proportions.

The lighting is cinematic and stunning, creating soft highlights on her skin and sharp shadow contrasts that enhance the shape of her waist, hips, and legs.

The background features a dusk sky with sunset tones of deep blue, purple, and orange, gentle clouds, and the silhouettes of palm trees.

A natural beach atmosphere, realistic textures, sharp focus on the woman's body and reflections, high detail, Ultra HD, artistic aesthetic, warm lighting, and low angle. Use the original face exactly as it is, without changing a details. A stunning, very fit female model with a sun-kissed, glowing tan (hyper-realistic, high-sheen skin texture).
