ClientBriefOrObjective
The PEDIGREE Adoption Drive offers support to thousands of abandoned dogs around the country. While numbers hadn’t dropped, unfortunately public interest had. We needed to find a new way to connect. This project was designed to remind all people how important donations to the cause are, and to show how their support, no matter how insignificant it may seem, could save the life of an abandoned dog – and raise money for the cause in the process.
Effectiveness
In one week, our cinema experience drove more than 80% of all consumer donations made in 2011. In one case, a man who chose not to donate, left the cinema before the feature and dropped $50 into a collection bucket.
Implementation
By adapting the way 3D cinema glasses work, we were able to simultaneously project two entirely different films on the same screen. We saw an opportunity to tell the story of the difference a donation makes. We created two parallel films – one of a mistreated dog who gets rescued, the other, the same mistreated dog who never gets found. Before the movie, cinemagoers are faced with a choice – donate and receive a pair of yellow glasses, or pay nothing for the red pair. That choice dictated the fate of the dog on screen.
Relevancy
In a world first cinema experience, we were able to demonstrate the difference a donation makes, live - and reinforce that public support, no matter how insignificant can affect the life of abandoned dogs.
