Homescapes is a popular and interactive mobile game that allows you to live out your interior decorator dreams as you help Austin the Butler renovate his childhood home. It’s the perfect break-time activity. 

Other games have gone the live-action route before; this video should give you a good sense of where the bar is currently set – and how it can be improved upon:

The goal of this project is to create Concepts for live-action digital videos that will encourage viewers to download Homescapes, a free Playrix game available on Android and iOS. 

Homescapes is a fun and immersive match-3 game with a deep storyline, and Playrix wants to help it stand out from the incredibly crowded field of free mobile games with digital videos that speak directly to viewers and encourage them to download the game.

Your Concepts should be simple but fun and engaging and should include actual or simulated gameplay in a live-action setting. Concepts should be executable in a simple live-action video format.

EXPOSURE: Videos based on these concepts will appear on Facebook and Instagram.

TARGET AUDIENCE:

• PRIMARY: Women 30+
• SECONDARY: Mobile gamers of all ages
  
  

TONE:  Exciting, fun, engaging, energetic, bright, and unique.

EXECUTIONAL MANDATORIES:

• Concepts should work for live-action execution
• Must be designed around getting viewers to download the app
• Concepts must be executable in a short video (30 seconds or less)
• Concepts must involve gameplay
• Adhere to Facebook and Instagram best practices which can be found here.

Tell us your Concept in 250 characters or less. Remember, a Concept is not a detailed script; it is a spark of inspiration, or a distillation of what will happen in the Video. As always, Concepts should be clever and engaging. Five winning Concept creators will receive $250 each.
