Background
Millennials across the board don’t see the value in paying a premium price for a
Samsung phone.
How do we get them to pay a premium for a Samsung phone? The solution: The
S21. A phone with impeccable camera capabilities. In the time of a global pandemic
and constant lockdown, your phone is your only way of communicating with the
world. You need a phone with a stunning camera that turns every ordinary moment
into an Epic moment/memory. You need the Galaxy S21!
Uplift the Samsung Galaxy Series’ equity and engage with millennials through a
stunning film that highlights the phone’s capabilities.
Idea
When you’re stuck at home, every moment starts looking the same. With the S21;
every moment becomes epic.
We launched a series of films with superstar couple Ahmed Helmy and Mona Zaki
using a "Single Script", shot in 4 Distinct Genres, which gave very different context
of the script each time. Showcasing the S21’s camera capabilities and capitalizing
on a relatable situation among couples. On the brand’s social platforms, audiences
could watch all genres from the main trailer's end frame, which raised the
entertainment level even higher and kept the audience engaged in a unique instant
experience.
Strategy
Among Arab and Egyptian couples, a common disagreement always rears its ugly
head: “Where are you going out alone?” The husband is never safe from the wife’s
passive aggression at the thought of going anywhere without her.
We took this insight and ran with it in a series of digital copies to showcase
Samsung S21 features in an entertaining way and get couples to engage with the
different films and their genres based on the couples’ moods and/or personalities.
