Utopia Influencer Campaign


Collaborating with conspiracy and comic culture-loving influencers to build buzz around Amazon's original twisted thriller

Overview

Amazon Prime Video partnered with Digital Media Management (DMM) to identify six entertainment-loving influencers who were fans of conspiracy and comic culture on two activations to drive tune-in to Utopia around its premiere.

Strategy

DMM identified three top-tier entertainment influencers to participate in the Red Band Trailer activation, for which they shared their reactions to the Utopia Red Band Trailer via videos on Instagram and Facebook to build awareness of and excitement for the series leading up to its premiere. The team sourced three additional conspiracy-loving, macro influencer channels to participate in the Conspiracy Video activation, for which they created custom YouTube and Instagram videos themed around the show to introduce viewers to the thrilling, conspiratorial and twisted world of Utopia soon after its premiere.

Results

The six influencers posted eight pieces of sponsored content that resulted in nearly 1.5M impressions, 84.3K+ engagements, a 5.7% engagement rate and 756K+ video views. In addition to the required posts, three influencers posted five pieces of added value content.
