THE CLIENT
At 663,000 sq miles, Alaska is the same size as 1/5 of all Lower 48 states and larger than the next three states combined. It also has some of the most diverse landscape and cultural history in the nation.
THE BRIEF
To drive attention, engagement and additional brand messaging to the Travel Alaska ad by delivering the creative within a dynamically changing Native CTV experience.
SOLUTION DEPLOYED
Blending highly agile content animation with proprietary ad serving technology, Slingshot deploys short form 'Native Content' that runs adjacent to a brand's creative, rotating to a new piece of content each time it is seen by the viewer.
THE SLINGSHOT 'EFFECT'
CREATIVE STRATEGY
With the primary purpose of Slingshot being to amplify attention and apply additional, rotating messaging to the Travel Alaska ad creative, Origin's team of writers and designers built a custom Slingshot experience that enabled the client to expand their creative capabilities in a way that meant they could deliver a new highlight about Alaska every time it was seen by the viewer.
The Slingshot experience created for Travel Alaska changed every time the ad was served, which in turn helped elevate attention and interest in visiting 'The 49th State'.
Given the requirements in the brief, the decision was made to create a 'Bookend' experience which has been proven to solve the need for attention as well as additional brand messaging.
