Congratulations to Citizen’s client TVNZ Blacksand on winning three golds at the prestigious PromaxBDA NZ 2016 Awards for its ‘Shortland Street – The Living Moment’ campaign taking out Best Campaign, Best Entertainment Promo and Best Integrated Marketing Campaign.
All from a one minute promo that, with the addition of WIREWAX interactive technology, meant viewers could lean forward and delve deeper into the minds of their favourite Shortland Street characters, unlock exclusive additional content and actively engage with the story while the show took a broadcast season break over the 2015/2016 summer holiday period.
Goals included – drive more tune-in from online video; increase audience share of Finale Episode; increase time spent with content and keep viewers engaged over the holiday break and the results speak for themselves…
Over 62.7% of Shortland Street viewers interacted with the experience
More than 3.25 interactions for every engaged view
Over 2 minutes spent on average with additional video content in overlay and
A 3.6% increase in audience share for Shortland Street from this campaign
The Living Moment has also been nominated for Gold at the PromaxBDA Global awards held in New York in late June.
