The Campaign
We wanted to use the billboard as a catalogue for the color range provided by Al Jazeera paints. Given the sheer size of the billboard, it was a perfect opportunity to turn the largest billboard in the world and express that it is limited in comparison to the wide range of colors offered by Al Jazeera paints
In the Saudi culture, they tend to seize every opportunity to travel abroad for a vacation long or short. We have deliberately chosen this billboard because of its location and size to display the message of infinite colors and noting that when used creatively it can be the most memorable piece of media for the public.
We also amplified the idea with a statement:
“Sorry for keeping it short, Our range of colors can’t even fit on the longest billboard in the world”
Creative Execution
Using the billboard, we wanted to create an experience for the public and enjoy a drive with colorful views. As they continue to drive towards the end of the billboard, we placed a statement apologizing for the end of the colors displayed since the canvas was not enough to display them all.
Describe the success of the promotion with both client and consumer including some quantifiable results
The billboard is located on a high-traffic airport road of the main city of Riyadh. Estimated numbers of viewers who experienced the billboard reach over 12 million to date.
Explain why the method of promotion was most relevant to the product or service
Using the world’s largest billboard, as per Guinness book of world records, located on the airport road in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia - the creative idea applied turns the longest billboard to an experience for drivers and passengers while on the road.
Our main target audience are all the people driving from and away the international airport of Riyadh.
By using this billboard, we tend to gain great exposure by the Saudi public coming and going out of the country.
