create an after-movie, which could be used as a marketing film for the upcoming festivals and
for the brands to showcase their collaboration. It also showed the fans why they are important
for making the festival so unique. The after-movie was a huge success amongst the fans, or the Tuska Tribe, as you may call them. The comments on YouTube and other social media where full of emotion and positive vibes.
Politics with Petteri – YouTube Series
Petterin jäljillä
Bridging politics and entertainment in the YouTube age is not an easy task. Rabbit Films
created a YouTube series of 5 episodes for Finnish National Coalition Party (Kokoomus) in
order to refresh their image and promote their agenda among the younger demographic.
We sent a well known actor Tero Tiittanen to follow the party’s chairman Petteri Orpo for a
week during his campaign tour and to ask questions nobody has dared to ask before. Some
questions were political and some pure entertaining fun. It was released on YouTube,
Facebook, Instagram and the party’s website. The result was over a million combined views
which was the biggest online hit in the party’s history.
OneMind Dogs – funding campaign
By far our most furry case so far has been a campaign for an upcoming dog training method
mobile app. Rabbit Films made the app’s crowdfunding video aimed at potential investors. We
helped OneMind Dogs not only to get the funding they needed, but to get over 140% of their
initial goal.
We designed the campaign so it can be modified and used in all the different territories. This
way OneMind Dogs could help all the dogs and their owners around the world to understand
each other, so it almost feels like they have one mind.
