Creative Execution

It’s barely possible to stop the Internet with an ordinary ad campaign. That’s why we’ve created a real Movement for Passion. We came up with manifesto for Passion, which our active audience could contribute to, support, and share in social networks. Then, we’ve challenged: 1) active bloggers and youtubers to join our quest for Passion 2) leading national online media to support our movement and suspend an access to their sites for one hour, suggesting ways to spend time better than Internet surfing

Insights, Strategy and the Idea

National Ice Cream brand Extreme is aiming to establish itself in Digital. TA: Females 18-30, regular ice cream cones consumers, who strive to live the life to the fullest. They lack passion and romantics in relationship and their men do not consider it important. The brand faced a unique problem, starting conversation in Digital: There is no true passion online as communication in the Internet substitutes true feelings with virtual analogues. Insight: Switching off gadgets and going offline changes ways people act and think. Now it is easier for them to recall real feelings. The Idea: Stop Internet for 1 hour and suggest a better way to spend this time with beloved ones
