tech used

live poll + counteraccelerometer & gyroscope motion sensors

how the campaign was executed

integrating a live poll and counter within the ad to gauge users’ awareness of the archaic gender test
running the ad on tier 1 mobile websites to ensure the brand reached the target market optimally
deploying the accelerometer and gyroscope motion sensors to enable users to physically walk in the footsteps of the protagonist

execution

the ad first showed users the number of people who have faced discrimination through a live counter on the screen.
they were then asked to vote whether they have faced discrimination with ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; the results were displayed in real time.
the ad encouraged users to walk in the protagonist’s (Rashmi) shoes by physically taking a few steps forward to understand the ordeals she faced, to achieve her dreams; this was powered by the accelerometer and gyroscope motion sensors.
the closing screen displayed the movie trailer, and the CTA ‘Subscribe Now’ which directed users to the landing page to start their subscription.
