The Campaign

Post Wisely: It’s your life, until you share it. The second you share something you lose control over it and it is now public knowledge. From there on, the person can use that information against you. From valuable purchases, to your loved ones, everything can be an arsenal to the right criminal.

Creative Execution

The content was created to have the look and feel that looks like a movie, it feels like a trailer. It doesn’t feel like a conventional PSA campaign or even an ad. It was done this way to make sure people consume the content the same way they would a movie or a TV show. The film reveals someone thinking out loud. They are talking to themselves, or at least so it seems. It’s a one-sided conversation with all answers and responses growing in intensity. It is only once we are close enough we reveal that they are scrolling through someone’s social media feed.

Not only were was the relevant target reached through the right traditional and social media channels, they were reached at the precise moment and place when and where oversharing is common practice.

We never truly know who we are talking to online. We needed to make sure that people are also seeing our content where and when they are most likely to overshare. By strategic targeting and social listening, we made sure our films and content are constantly visible.
