OVERVIEW

Description

Our signature "lime in the bottle" shot is an iconic portrait. To show New Yorkers that they can find their beach at night, what if we used the actual crescent moon to represent the Corona lime? To do that, we created the first celestial interactive billboard ever.

First, we contacted some of the world's top planetariums to see if it was even possible. It was. But the calculations had to be absolutely perfect.

Then we scoured the city for the perfect board. After a long, tiresome search we found it: a double billboard in the middle of Manhattan.

We immediately began calculating where to stand to see it; designing for swag, PR and our owned digital channels; and began negotiations with local bars to host special New Year's Eve-style Luna Corona parties.

The campaign grew sales 7.9% in NYC, garnered 142,000+ views of the buzz video, collected 5,000+ "likes" on Corona Extra's Facebook page and earned more than 100 unpaid media placements in the U.S. and abroad.

(It also helped that we dodged the very real possibility of rain and clouds ruining the event. Lucky, for sure.)

The campaign was so successful in building buzz in NYC that Corona decided to extend the outdoor buy for an additional month.
