We created rich short form storytelling across different platforms - Canvas and Instagram content used to promote engagement.

THE LAUNCH OF THE ALL NEW FORD FIESTA IN SOUTH AFRICA
One short drama, cut into 8 ‘Twittersodes’, each designed to create an emotional connection between the viewer and the Ford brand. The viewer voted on to determine the direction of each episode.
The story is about a twenty-eight-year-old woman named Nandi and a very important event. The story was created to expresses the independent spirit of FIESTA drivers
Why?
The traditional means of marketing cars to the younger South Africans is no longer relevant. We needed to be relevant. The population of South Africa is around 56 million. 66% are under 35 and they live through their phones. You have to connect with them through Social platforms.
The first episode received over 14,000 votes, 350 retweets, 2,000 Likes, and the finale was watched 230,000 times, generating 150+ comments.

On the website you could create your own hopper and join the online invasion. Yahoo was invaded by thousands of hoppers in over 20 countries.
270,000 space hoppers customised and 277,000 new emails registered.
Online engagement: The Hopper Warehouse.
Hoppers could be inflated through the use of keywords on Twitter or through the website. Each Space Hopper was inflated depending on online activity, removed and replaced by another one. The event was streamed online 24h a day for 2 weeks and users were encouraged to tweet what they would like to do with the hundreds of Space Hoppers.
A lot of space hoppers died making this event.
