The challenge.

King’s College London’s Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience (IoPPN) conducted research exploring how young people experience anxiety, sadness and anger. They produced three long-form videos addressing these emotions and sought to promote them to a young audience to drive engagement. Tasked with this mission, we employed smart audience targeting and strategic platform selection. The result was astounding: we delivered over double the number of view targets, equating to more than 470 days of viewing time and over 199,000 completed views of the third video by those who had seen the first two.

Our response.

We delivered the full-length video across YouTube, Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok to maximise touchpoints and drive brand awareness. We targeted all people in the UK aged 13-24 to reach as many young people as possible.

We served three videos to this broad audience, but also built retargeting audiences of people who watched the first and second videos but not the last so that we could ensure that our audience saw all three videos to get the full picture of what the IoPPN was trying to communicate.
