briefing
“Our business is not sexy, but crucial.”
“We need to do something cool to let the public know we care about their warmth, their energy, d’you know what I mean?”. That call came from Michiel Bal, Gasunie’s Head of Corporate Communication.
concept
Groningen’s Gasunie asked us to create a concept to bring together the online and offline during two important events – the WinterWelVaart Groningen 2014 and the Eurosonic Noorderslag Festival 2015.
We came up with the concept of the Live Christmas Card, which let you wish your loved ones a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2015. Facebook and Instagram were the chosen platforms for this campaign.
For Eurosonic Noorderslag, we decided to use social media to make their Energy Stage a shared, immersive experience.
what we did
During WinterWelVaart, we went to the streets and had people send their loved ones a Live Christmas Card.
Eurosonic Noorderslag, a key exchange and networking platform for European music, hosted their so-called Energy Stage. Here, visitors could hop on electric bikes and ‘cycle for energy’, which gave people a new understanding of energy. We connected this experience to Facebook and Instagram.

We kept the set-up simple and uploaded the 15-second videos of Christmas cards to Facebook and Instagram.
