The Campaign

We executed this in multiple venues over the course of 12 months. One of which was our cinema, where we created the world’s first Cinema Roulette.

Creative Execution

We created the world’s first Cinema Roulette by transforming our 330-seat cinema into a live roulette game, by covering the walls and floors green, and refitting the seats with red and black seat covers displaying each seat number. On the screen, right before the film began; we displayed the familiar cinema seat layout, only now it appeared as the numbers on a roulette table. Then, using a specially created randomizer app, a roulette ball shot out, and fell into one seat, winning that lucky person in it, Php 1,000,000. We then edited the event into an online film.

Describe the success of the promotion with both client and consumer including some quantifiable results

4th most viral video on YouTube (Philippines YouTube Ads Leaderboards: H2 2015). 8% increase in visitors to our cinemas.

Explain why the method of promotion was most relevant to the product or service

The work used a roulette and showed it on the screen to mimic a casino game inside the cinema.

We created an idea that promotes both the entertainment venues and gaming ones.
