Airbnb / Social Campaign

If you could live in any movie, what would it be?

Case Study

Idea

I anticipated the movies and moments people would be talking about on Oscars night and helped Airbnb respond when they happened.

Awards

Cannes Silver Lion — Mobile, 2016, Cannes Bronze Lion — Cyber, 2016

Press

Airbnb couldn't advertise during the Oscars because a hotel brand was sponsoring the show. So we took the conversation to Twitter and invited people to imagine living in their favorite movies.

Result

The campaign earned 63 million impressions, ranked #2 in visibility on Twitter during the Oscars, and generated more user-generated content than any other brand. It also earned TBWA\Chiat\Day LA its first-ever Cannes Lions in Mobile and Social.
