OCASI - Backyard Blast
Rather than focusing on raising awareness of racism, OCASI chose instead to focus on the indifference that tends to greet many racist actions, while challenging people to step up and say something whenever they encounter such behaviour. The campaign is built around two 30-second spots, “Multiply” and “Backyard Blast,” both of which show a person casually making racist comments.
In “Backyard Blast,” a woman attending a backyard barbecue, casually remarks about “These people…” and “They should just go if…” Each time she is drowned out by fellow partygoers whose voice is the sound of an airhorn, followed by the super “Put racism on blast.”
Our obsession is bringing certainty to creativity. We exist in an “Accountability Economy,” where marketers and agencies are increasingly required to justify their advertising investment. We are so confident in the ability of our proprietary data technology to eliminate the uncertainty from advertising, we are willing to license it to other agencies to help improve overall marketing effectiveness.
We are the only agency to build patented technology and proprietary methodologies that use data to adapt media and creative in real time. It not only helps our clients be more responsive, but smarter and more effective. We think that’s important in a digital environment where budgets are shrinking and competitive pressure is rising.
Behavioural data linked to consumer and addressable media data enables us to overcome the fundamental challenges of modern mass advertising: Media proliferation, multitasking, and increased ad avoidance. These combined factors have made mass advertising much less effective than it was 20 years ago.
To solve this challenge, Mass Minority’s business is built around two key components: Creative thinking to develop the brand narratives required to attract customers, and technology-fueled data science to drive the effectiveness and efficiencies that give your brand a competitive advantage.
