Execution
RYMCO / Nissan's new line of brands (Juke and Sentra) is designed to target the young generation. Nissan wanted its brands to talk to the target using their own language. This is why, the creative execution brought the brand physically closer to the target, engaging with them on a personal level, online and offline, in their favorite hangout zones.
The initiative made the young crowd become heroes, by allowing them to suggest an arrest and save their drunk driving friends' lives. The lack of road safety regulations and negligence by the authorities made the creative execution original and surprisingly bold.
