The Campaign

Show people that diabetes is a real threat by giving him a scary character through a documentary style video and an online presence to interact with people. Organs affected by diabetes also join the online conversation with their own accounts and interactions.

Creative Execution

The online campaign used posters of monsters from local folktales to attract attention on twitter using influencers. After that, the posters were ripped to reveal the real monster which is Diabetes with new posts. Then a documentary style video was released with Diabetes speaking as a real person on YouTube. Finally, once his character was established, Diabetes and affected organs were then given social media accounts to interact with people spreading information in an indirect way.

• 1,191,926 views on YouTube.? • Over 700,000 views on Twitter.? • Over 50,000,000 unique impressions on twitter.? • Publicity in newspapers and TV networks.
