Execution
After numerous auditions, two talented Saudi acts were recruited from the Rock and Rap genres to become ‘The Jammers’ (Rock) and ‘The Mixers’ (Rap). The bands then recorded six music videos and the battle was born.
A Collisions microsite was the main hub of the campaign with online banners and TV used to drive traffic and votes for The Jammers and Mixers. Content on the site also included forums, band profiles, downloads and competitions.
Videos were then extended beyond the site to run on specialized TV music channels and even played out during entire ad breaks (a media- first). Facebook and Netlog fan- pages were also used to create dialogue and spread content.
Finally, support was given on-ground with a music tour bus, product sampling and special voting stands in youth hang- outs.
