25. Our Focus Put the audience inside of the show. Make them participate and be part of it (casting events and life events in Flatmates, screaming competition on Final Punishment) and it’s outcome. Make it personal and immersive. Use “all medias” to make it a truly 360 degrees show. It becomes part of your day life. Use the Internet, Social Media and Mobile phones to establish relationships and build communities. Use push devices (Twitter, SMS alerts, etc) to bring audiences back to the content. Use traditional medias as TV, Radio and newspapers to bring the content to the mass market. Use brands as sponsors and/or produce mobile and off-line products for monetizing the content (Mobile content, Books, DVDs, licensed products, etc).

26. The Different Medias Which medias to use in your cross-media Strategy? Medias that bring something to your project (audience engagement, marketing, revenue) and can also work as stand alone pieces (and do not require audiences from other medias to watch). The user of different medias must provide a better user experience but not exclude “non-participate” audiences. The roll-out of different medias should focus on audience build up to the key media in your marketing strategy. Make every media experience unique and rewarding to the user. Be aware of each media limitations, traditional user experience (content length), and impact on the user (the distance to the screen and personal connection to the media). The “time slot” of the user/media. Some examples.

27. Final Punishment: Starting Point? The Briefing and the Challenge: The FP Briefing: Create a 3 window concept that could show OI Telecom services: Mobile, Digital TV and Internet Portal. We had a script that we were unable to fund as no sponsor wants to be associated with “women getting killed in a prison”. The Challenge: how to make a story about “women getting killed in a prison” relevant to an audience that reads a similar story in the newspapers, everyday. The solution: make it personal => “You can save them!”. The 2nd Problem: how make audiences like and care for women that were convicted for murder.

28. The ARG Started Game against time to allow audience to save the 8 women. Back-story was introduced in the form of blogs, photo albums, news articles, etc to make women in prison more lovable. Detective based game to tease audience to find out more about these women, what’s the connection between them and who’s killing them. Audience need to collect 30 photos and a decoder that will allow them to find the right code.

34. The Planning: Excel is your Friend!

35. Going Global Document all your production process. Produce a Bible with all the materials, the “how to” produce the content. It will be key to sell the format internationally. Partner with international production companies that are able to reproduce the format in their territories. Attend TV and New Media markets as MipTV and Mipcom. Partner with a International distribution company to reach key markets.

36. My Two Cents! A cross-media project/content is focused on providing an Experience (at the same time it tells a story). Select stories that can be better told if the user is immersed on them. Clear ideas: ideas that you can pitch in one sentence and show in a Banner or an home page “headline” or Youtube title. Ideas that clearly are meant to be told on these medias: have a reason to! Partner with entities that already talk to your audience.
