Barclays targets young via virtual reality game

Peugeot RCZ has chosen

On Friday 11th June at 1pm the live reveal of the RCZ winner took place on itchoosesyou.co.uk and it went swimmingly. (The winner was a welsh hockey player called Matthew Stollery). The 5-week campaign, created by EHS 4D Digital to promote Peugeot’s new sports coupé model RCZ, generated over 14,000 ads and 8,000 Facebook Fans. We hosted a live Q&A on Twitter with the car’s designer and even managed to get Oliver out in his sandwich board promoting the campaign around the streets of London. All in all, a brilliant campaign!
