Insights, Strategy, Idea
To build upon 36 years of being America’s top-selling truck, the Ford F-150, Ford aimed to develop a best-of-breed creative execution on mobile and tablet to drive brand awareness and user engagement with the newly launched vehicle.
With the “We Own Work” message, Ford aimed to push the creative boundaries of what was possible on mobile. By using ground-breaking mobile 3D technology, Ford had an opportunity to bring the F-150 brand to new levels of engagement with mobile, and target key US audiences at scale.
Because the 3D F-150 mobile ad unit was the lead creative unit in the broader F-150 campaign (over traditional ad channels), it was critical that mobile users could interact with the vehicle in as realistic and immersive a form as possible, and were given complete control for a truly personalized experience of the truck. Media Execution
With 3D mobile, the Ford F-150 ad designers had access to an entirely new creative palette to create the most realistic virtual showroom experience. Unlike rich media, 3D mobile ads render &calculate colors, lighting &shading in real-time, based on mobile users’ actions. This cutting-edge mobile ad unit for the F-150 features a motion-sensitive banner that expands into a slick, full-screen 3D creative model of the vehicle. Touch-interactivity included the ability to:
- Change the truck’s exterior color to one of fourteen color options.
- View the vehicle in four distinct work environments with four separate camera angles to gain a stunning 360-degree view of vehicle.
- See real-time reflections of surrounding environments using accelerometer of mobile device.
- Load truck bed to showcase F-150’s heavy-duty payload capacity.
- View two different in-ad videos to demonstrate vehicle capabilities in various environments.
The 3D F-150 mobile ad campaign exceeded all client expectations, achieving up to two times the industry average of time-spent in ad. Across all measured categories, the 3D F-150 mobile campaign drove significant increases in brand metrics.
