Binaca® has been in your pocket keeping your breath conveniently clean and fresh for over 75 years. That great pocket-sized mouth spray may have even saved you when you really needed to freshen your breath during an important event such as a date, business meeting, social gathering or any close encounter. Now, Binaca® wants you to create a 15 or 30-second commercial spot to help promote the launch of its completely rejuvenated product line of refreshed flavors and sprays.
Binaca's® main brand objective for the commercials is to create a call to action for consumers to try Binaca®. The commercials should exemplify how Binaca® gives you a strong "blast" that freshens your breath and how it is a must have to avoid any embarrassment relating to bad breath.
This contest will be worth a total of $7,500 and consist of four phases so there’s a place for all of you to contribute, regardless of your skill set.
PHASE 1: CONCEPT – In 250 characters or less, tell us your Concept for the commercial. Remember, a concept is not a detailed script, it is a brief synopsis or distillation of what will happen in the commercial.
PHASE 2: VIDEO – Select one of the 5 winning Concepts and make a 15 or 30 second Commercial for Binaca®. You can, but do not have to literally interpret every piece of the concept. Think of it as a framework with a general theme or tagline that you should work within. Be creative, capture the essence, know the goal, and have fun with it.
--Target Audience: Skews younger from 16-39 among both men and women.
PHASE 2A: PREDICTION – Watch all the Videos and try to Predict which ones will win the contest.
PHASE 2B: MOST VIEWED – Whichever Videos get seen the most times online (delivered by Tongal via embed, email or share) within the period of 15 days following the Video submission deadline will win the bonus prizes.
