Why is this work relevant for Entertainment?

The first ever Corona-Extra TV show, with 3 top talents as main protagonists to boost awareness both on TV and social channels.

Background

The objective was to recover Corona-Extra's brand perception, damaged by the first pandemic year and by the virus name: Co-Vid19, a.k.a. Corona Virus. The name of the Brand was trending on the web and on social channels, but for the wrong reason.

Describe the creative idea

While no one could travel due to restrictions and since Corona-Extra is all about living outside, we took the journey of our influencers into every Italian home to make people discover that paradise could be just around the corner and to give them a glimpse of freedom to share with friends.

Describe the strategy

While all Italians were watching TV at home, lusting for outdoors, we created our very own piece of entertainment, launching it with the help of 3 talents that share the same desire to disconnect from the pandemic anxiety, discovering together hidden places across our beautiful Italy.

Describe the execution

According to the rules of TV entertainment, we produced 5 episodes (25 minutes each) aired on Italia 1 (one of the main broadcasters in Italy) during prime time. We chose 3 top talents with strong online audiences as main characters, in order to boost talkability. We aired the first episode on September 23, 2020 and the last one on October 24, 2020. After the on-air, the show remained on the Italia1's streaming platform (Mediaset Play) as an on-demand content.
