    Choose Kindness with Lionsgate's Wonder

    wonder-370x717

    Challenge

    To promote the theatrical movie release of Wonder and amplify the movie’s core theme of “choose kind” across the Wattpad community.

    What we did

    We created a strategic two wave campaign that left a lasting impression on our community.

    • We first launched the #WonderTheMovie writing contest asking users to submit 500-word stories inspired by the movie’s #ChooseKind theme.

    • To bring the winning entries to life, we partnered with Tongal, a creator community, and had three lucky contest winners’ stories turned into digital shorts.

    • To sustain the build-up towards the movie’s release day, we promoted the winning custom videos and movie trailer through highly-targeted in-app video ads and amplified the video content across the social media universe.

    Results

    A strategic campaign that took the power of ‘content and video’ to new lengths, making this a success beyond the Wattpad platform.

    • A whopping 1,197 valid contest entries (US only) were submitted. The Wattpad audience spent an extraordinary amount of time with the contest entries, 151,057 minutes to be exact!

    • There were 2.5 million video views of the Wonder movie trailer in-app alone.

    • Collectively, winning produced videos got an astounding 1 million views across channels.

    • The campaign won a Digiday Content Marketing Award for Best User-Generated Content in May 2018
