    JioCinema Brand Spotlight: Illuminating IPL campaigns with unmatched brilliance.

    Mumbai: In the fast-paced world of advertising, innovation is key to capturing audience attention and creating memorable brand experiences. This IPL season, JioCinema embarked on a journey with its new initiative – Jio Cinema Brand Spotlight. This initiative aimed to elevate select ad campaigns, offering them exclusive exposure during the crucial first six overs of IPL matches.

    Six prominent brands – Dream 11, Charged by Thums Up, Britannia, Dalmia Cement, Parle Products, and HDFC Bank – captured this unique opportunity to debut their campaigns on JioCinema during the IPL matches. What set these campaigns apart was not just their prime placement but also the narrative behind their creation.

      

    Beyond just securing a prime spot for launching their opening day campaigns, JioCinema’s brand spotlight is offered an opportunity for brands to engage with audiences in a more meaningful way. In an exclusive initiative, brand spotlight facilitated a unique marketer’s moment, where the campaign makers and brand custodians shared exclusive insights and stories behind the creation of their campaigns and brand films featured on JioCinema.

    The platform didn’t stop at merely showcasing the ads; it dug deeper into the creative process by providing viewers with insights into the making of these campaigns. This move involved hosting dedicated trays on the sports page of the app for these brands. These trays not only housed the extended edits of the campaigns but also offered an intimate look into the brainstorming sessions, challenges faced, and creative decisions made by the brand custodians and agency heads.

    For the first time in the industry, fans had the opportunity to go beyond the glossy surface of advertisements and gain a deeper understanding of the thought that goes into crafting these spots. By offering behind-the-scenes content alongside the ads, JioCinema transformed passive viewers into engaged participants, creating a more immersive experience for IPL enthusiasts.

  • Dalmia Cement asks consumers to consider ‘Apni Personal Space’

    Dalmia Cement asks consumers to consider ‘Apni Personal Space’

    MUMBAI: As people stayed home for months on end to counter the spread of the Coronavirus, it has indelibly changed them in a few ways. With this idea in mind, Dalmia Cement has launched a digital campaign Apni Personal Space which takes a look at consumers’ lives during the Covid2019-induced lockdown.

    Through two digital films, the campaign focuses on the lives of two couples, and how they envision living together with the challenges and joys of being at home for a prolonged period. The main insight, “It is not just about staying together, but staying together happily” drives the narrative forward.

    Dalmia Cement (Bharat) executive director- marketing Pramesh Arya said, “The last few months have been a once-in-a-lifetime experience for all of us. During our field teams’ outreach efforts, we learnt consumers around the country have already been thinking about how to make their homes future ready. All of us are thinking about our quality of life in a new manner today, and Dalmia Cement’s promise of ‘Future Today’ will help consumers take this thought forward in their home building journey.”

    Kreativ Street, the brand’s digital agency which conceptualized the campaign, CEO and co-founder Neeraj Sancheti said, “With more and more people working from home, the need for personal space is a real thing now. It not just affects work but also everyone’s mental peace. Based on this insight, we crafted these two films to start the conversation around the need for their own space.”

    Over the lockdown period, and the various Unlock phases, the brand has offered a complete suite of services to consumers virtually, helping continue and start construction at a time when labour shortage, local lockdowns and other challenges have impacted home building. With the lockdown easing, construction is rapidly picking pace in regions with low infection rates. Increasing availability of labour in most markets has also helped.

    The campaign is live on YouTube, Facebook and other digital channels, and the brand is also rolling out a comprehensive influencer marketing strategy to increase engagement. Consumers will be asked to share their own #ApniPersonalSpace stories through the campaign website and the brand’s social media channels as they make plans for their future homes.
