ANNIKA S2

360° campaign

Aim:
Following the success of Series 1 on BBC iPlayer, we launched an ambitious campaign to create buzz and drive viewers to Alibi for the new series.
 
Idea:
In this season, there’s more beneath the surface (in both Annika’s personal life and the cases she investigates). 

Inspired by the the series' marine homicide setting, the underwater theme became the perfect visual metaphor me to bring this idea to life... a world where secrets and crimes are always rising to the surface.

Tagline:
Secrets Will Surface

40'' Launch Promo

To bring ‘Secrets Will Surface’ to life, I had Nicola Walker voice the script in Annika’s signature inner monologue style.

The voice inside her head speaking out her thoughts as they ripple throughout the promo, mirroring the secrets and emotions that will soon surface.

20'' Refresh Promo

A story-driven 20″ refresh promo built to sustain momentum and retain viewers after the 40″ talent VO-led launch spot. 

On-air Channel Takeover

On the day of TX, we transformed our channel branding in a takeover that transformed Alibi into Annika’s world. Haunting oceanic imagery and immersive sound design were used to lure viewers 'beneath the surface' and build anticipation for the series launch.

Continuity Takeover

Nicola Walker took over Alibi's continuity for the day with bespoke tune-in lines that I wrote to playfully interrupt viewers and immerse them into the mysterious world of Annika’s new series.

Key Art

I worked with our in-house designer to create a powerful image of Annika, front and centre, submerged in the Scottish waters, as if she's just floating above the secrets.

30'' Skippable MIQ Promo

I created a skippable YouTube trailer for MIQ, featuring a talent-fronted 5″ intro, designed to hook viewers instantly within the skippable format.

EPK YouTube Featurette

For fan engagement on social, I cut a behind-the-scenes YouTube featurette combining cast and crew interviews about the making of Annika Series 2.

Overnights:

Annika S2 smashed it on Alibi. On launch day it delivered ~333k Adults 16+ with a 2.9% share, making it the Top PAY TV Programme of the day.
