EPIC EYE MUSIC & ARTS FESTIVAL

Why Epic Eye? The main message behind the brand name and story of the festival was to close one’s five senses and open up to new feelings which can get us to our emotional peak and free our mind from the daily routine. 

The idea was targeted right on the electronic and rock music audiences as well as the contemporary art appreciators in Armenia. The same concept was applied for the creation of all the brand items, as well as the verbal communication and brand tone of voice.

A number of billboard, city scroller and LED screen ads were placed in the city center and the suburbs of Yerevan. Also, one of the biggest shopping centers Yerevan Mall who had partnered with the festival provided inside and outdoor ad placements where the festival posters, banners, roll-ups, and a LED screen were placed. Additionally, we placed a promo stand with flyers in the shopping mall with a promoter to sell tickets to the event. Throughout a month ads were running before each movie screening at KinoPark movie theater that is also located at the shopping center.

BTL was also carried out in the city-center night spots resulting in 400 direct contacts in the bars/pubs.
