Execution

In the first phase, pre-event, we found stories about children whose parents met in the festival’s previous editions. This material originated 3 mini documentaries of 5 minutes each and advertorials in magazines. In the second phase, during the event, we set up a Rock Altar where any couple could get married in the name of Rock, in a thematic ceremony. In phase 3, post-event, we took the 'marriage in the name of Rock' to Facebook with a promotion in which the couple with the highest number of guests would win a Honeymoon in Las Vegas.
