OVERVIEW

Execution

Via the building of a viral engine which is a 3 step process:1. Viewer receives a personalized E-mail from a friend saying that he has seen your name on a website.2. You click the link and get forwarded to a fake news page where the video starts plating automatically and immediately draws you into the experience. You are then told that Disney has decided to rebrand its Parks and iconic attractions to your name!3. At the end of the video you get forwarded to a spread page where you are empowered to play the joke on your friends by personalizing the video on the fly.The Goal was to prompt people to experience Disney Magic via video and voice personalization and share the experience with others.Refer to video case study here: www.caidproductions.com/disney
