Execution
We built a purpose-built Facebook app that allowed Ben to virtually personalize his own festival - location, layout, band line-up and more. After naming his festival, Ben then shared his creation with friends via his social networks.
Ben’s bespoke festival entered him into the draw to win an amazing all-expenses paid, VIP experience to Sydney’s ‘Future Music’ festival. Ben then fronted band interviews, which were broadcast via social-TV, giving him the ultimate experience while upping his social cred.
Physically, we created the ‘sLIPTONslide’, the world’s biggest inflatable festival slide. Ben could instantly capture and share his slip-sliding Lipton experiences, achieving ultimate kudos!
Touring nationwide, the sLIPTONslide provided shareable experiential entertainment while Ben tried Lipton Ice Tea product.
NZ’s biggest social-TV channel broadcast the experience, live from slide, with hosts sharing content instantly.
