Viral Video

Phonethics started as a short form content production company. This form of storytelling is extremely dear to us.

Sunrich – Viral Video

After executing some successful social media campaigns like #IAmTheSun and #BappachiDiary for Sunrich, Phonethics was asked to create a viral video communicating the message of the brand being clearer than its competitors. With the epic of Mahabharata serving as the premise, we created a funny narrative-based branded content that was a fusion of 2D and 3D animation filmmaking.

Objective:

To find a creative route that effectively communicates Sunrich Refined Sunflower Oil’s brand message that it is ‘clearer’ that its competitors.

 Execution:

To create some pre-launch buzz for the video, we created Facebook pages of popular characters from (The Mahabharata) the viral video – Draupadi’s Swayamvara.  

Prince Arjuna’s Facebook Page

These characters interacted with each other via FB comments and slowly the audience on social media started to get involved.

Bada Kaurava aka Duryodhan’s Facebook Page

Rajkumari Draupadi’s Facebook Page

These characters engaged in friendly banter on social media generating curiosity among the Sunrich Facebook community.

The film became more than just a piece of audiovisual content. An event page was created inviting the social media to ‘attend’ the famed Draupadi’s Swayamvara – The Untold Story.
