Campbell Ewald Wins Branded Content and Entertainment Lion at Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity
Created for U.S. Navy, "Project Architeuthis" Continues Winning Streak
(firmenpresse) - DETROIT, MI -- (Marketwired) -- 06/29/15 -- Marketing communications agency was honored with a Bronze Branded Content and Entertainment Lion for , a campaign developed on behalf of the U.S. Navy. The agency was awarded in the Original Game/Gaming category at the 62nd Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity.
"Project Architeuthis fused target insights, channel knowledge and creativity into one holistic, powerful idea," said Jim Palmer, CEO of Campbell Ewald. "We've been truly honored with the recognition the campaign has garnered over the past year, and to receive this second global award within two weeks is a true testament to the creativity and effectiveness of our work on behalf of the U.S. Navy."
Created by Campbell Ewald in 2014, Project Architeuthis was a puzzle-based alternate reality game designed to drive awareness of the Navy cryptology profession. Engaging a hard-to-reach micro-target of natural born problem solving millennials, the multi-platform social campaign successfully fused strategic insight, channel knowledge and creativity into one powerful idea that got players thinking like Navy Cryptologists.
The campaign was credited with helping the Navy reach its challenging Cryptology recruitment goal, making it the first U.S. military branch to implement an alternate reality game for recruitment purposes. The intricacy of the campaign also gained so much social media buzz (including 4,631 new followers of Navy Cryptology and Project Architeuthis Facebook pages) and press attention (more than 50 pieces of coverage globally) that a Russian news source speculated whether the winner of the puzzle game would be recruited into a top secret project by the U.S. Navy.
