The
brief
To
bring alive the positioning of the Red
Gillette Winner Razor – Be a winner,
challenge the world - through an interactive
and viral activity.
Insight
What
attracts people about ‘winning’
is the fame, the admiration and the life
of a winner. Who doesn’t want to
see their face on a billboard or on the
cover of a magazine? Gillette promises
to give every man the confidence to ‘be
a winner’ and through the website
aims to provide a ‘preview’
of the winner life.
Idea
Gillette
be a Winner is a viralable microsite where
the user can ‘live the life of a
winner’ or ‘make a video tribute’
to his winner icons using a simple video
mashup application.
User
can select video clips from a library,
and arrange them in the order that he/she
wants. The videos are essentially clips
that represent a ‘winner’s
life’ such as blank billboards,
front page of a newspaper, people cheering,
etc. Then the user adds custom text to
the clips and uploads an image. The custom
text and image appears on the billboard/newspaper
etc thus telling the story.
On
clicking Publish, the video plays to the
tune of the ‘World is Mine’
track of the TVC.
The
last frame of the video is fixed –
it always ends in the sign off –
‘be a winner challenge
the world, start today with the confidence
you get from Gillette Mach 3 Turbo’
– thus integrating the brand message
seamlessly with the user generated video
User
is then prompted to send his winner video
to his friends and invite them to create
their own video. |
