Using 400 dynamic image lenticular six-sheet posters produced for the Royal Mail promotion by Hive Associates in association with Bates UK, the drive encourages consumers to "Search for the One Ring and win a million... before it disappears". Media buying for the campaign is through Carat.
The posters are part of a national campaign to build rapid awareness of the Royal Mail promotion.
On display at key sites from the first week of November, the dynamic image six-sheets will show one of two creative executions. The first shows the "one ring" with 3D depth set over animated flames, created from 21 frames of original footage from the movie 'The Two Towers'. The second has the same 3D depth, but this time combined with flip and zoom techniques that reveal the value proposition as you interact with the poster.
To measure the effects the dynamic sites are producing, Royal Mail, Posterscope and Hive Associates are all co-funding a research project to justify Royal Mail's investment in the technology and to build a case study for other interested advertisers.
Marc Edmunds, managing director at Hive Associates, said: "Existing research into dynamic images as magazine inserts shows they can grab the consumer's attention up to four times as long as print. We anticipate this research will show the same to be true of six-sheets in the outdoor market."
