ACTIVATION CAMPAIGNS FOR DUTCH FEATURE FILM

Light, camera, action! Within a few weeks, we worked on a successful activation campaign for the Dutch romcom "Fijn Weekend. The hilarious film is about a group of friends where tensions run high during a memorial weekend in Burgundy, France. Fortunately, our marketers were able to keep the tension under control and even create a campaign in a short period of time.

Haven't seen the movie Fine Weekend yet? Not to worry, it is now available to watch on Netflix.

The goal

Before the film premiered, it was important to raise awareness among the target audience. Together with the client, we set the following goals: creating reach, activating the target group and stimulating ticket sales. We are proud to say that we achieved all goals. How did our team accomplish this? We give you a look behind the scenes.

TEST

Video campaigns that the target audience cannot ignore

How do you give the target audience a good impression of a film they really must have seen? Team SEA knew the right answer to that question. In December and January we deployed the trailer of Fijn Weekend as a video campaign on YouTube, achieving around 290,000 views in a short time. Almost 1/3 of the viewers watched the ad for longer than 30 seconds, making the average viewing time very high.

The power of effective display campaigns

To excite potential visitors to go see the film in theaters, we created display campaigns for wide reach. The display ads led to Fijn Weekend's website. The relevant ads were shown on reputable websites such as Filmtotaal.nl, Uitzendinggemist.nl and Beaumonde.nl. In just 3.5 weeks, it generated 336,000 views.

Ads on Instagram for an extra boost

Thanks to the use of display campaigns and video campaigns, great results were already being achieved, but it didn't stop there. Our social media marketers then went to work putting out successful ads on Instagram. Unlike the display ads, the social ads were directed to the trailer on YouTube. Within a month, we achieved over 850,000 views, of which the unique reach was around 390,400 people.
