Whatsapp: advert-body-1 by AlmapBBDO
- Location:
WhatsApp chose Brazil to launch its first brand campaign in the world. The first film of the campaign 'Fica só entre vocês' ('It’s between you') tells the story of a community that got together on WhatsApp to help a samba school that loses everything in a fire ahead of Carnival. Through the app, members of a rival school organize to collect donations and help rebuild their warehouse. Agency AlmapBBDO signs the campaign.
The film is based on several real, similar stories that happened throughout the years, including the one of Independente Tricolor, a samba school from São Paulo that faced a similar situation in 2019 and relied on its competitors’ help to rebuild through donations, shelter, and sharing of their warehouse so Independente’s team could work and live.
