INSTAGRAM CAMPAIGN
A SIMPLE FAVOR
A Simple Favor - Entertainment, Game, Lionsgate.
Social Platforms: Instagram, Facebook.
About
Objective
To promote and excite audiences for the theatrical release of the Lionsgate original film, A Simple Favor, by creating an original Instagram scavenger hunt to engage the F18-34+ target demographic.
Solution
We activated four influencers to build up the excitement as well as introduce their audience to an Instagram hunt for a hidden account, to play off the ‘gone missing’ theme from A Simple Favor.
Gameplan
Built organically on the Instagram platform, the mystery required users to join the search party for Emily and navigate a small maze of in-world Instagram accounts that were pre-populated with carefully crafted clues.
