Execution
In order to broadcast these spots, the television channel programming grid was used. In this manner, rather than starting the film broadcast by the channel, the spot started. By using real images granted by Warner Bros, the viewer thought that the film had begun and was unexpectedly taken by surprise: the First International Short Film Festival in the underground.
Strategy
The objective: to make known and to promote participation in the First Short Film Festival in the Underground.
Audience: young cinema fans and cinema students.
Idea: the best moment to surprise the audience is while broadcasting, on television, to show some of the most important cinematographic references in history. By using films considered to be Cult: North by Northwest, Hitchcock; Barry Lyndon and Full Metal Jacket, Stanley Kubrick, and Gone with the Wind, it was possible to connect with the audience and, just when the movie was starting, something surprising happened – the announcement of the First Short Film Festival in the underground.
