Disney’s Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two Videogame

Client’s need:
The client wanted to build awareness of the new videogame ‘Disney’s Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two’, promoting the gameplay, special effects and story’s core theme of friendship.

They were also keen to ensure child were familiar and engaged with Mickey Mouse to generate excitement for his new game.

Our solution:
To achieve these goals, we launched an extensive multi-platform campaign including:

• ‘The Power of Two’ Competition: Centred on the theme of friendship in the game, listeners were encouraged to nominate their friend to win an Epic  Mickey prize. Five finalists competed in a special quiz on air where they had to answer questions about their best friend, providing engaging audio content to promote the game.
• ‘The Epic Journey of Mickey Mouse’ Enhanced Adverts: We created a series of 20 Enhanced Adverts following the history of Mickey, broadcast on air and available to download
• Station Take Over: In the week covering the game release, we carried out an intensive on air campaign through a 4-day station take over
• ‘Colour in Fun Kids’ Web Take Over: To highlight the visual strength of the game, we created a unique website takeover of funkidslive.com where the entire website for one week was black and white and users could colour it in with a paintbrush cursor. This was supported with splash page activity.
