Samsung created a mobile application based on the true story of twins borned separately

The concept: Dual-screen


To launch its Gear fit and Gear 2, Samsung created a dual screen campaign to demonstrate how its device can help people stay connected anywhere at any time.

Thanks to the application called an “another me”, users can visual 2 teasers on different phone. One telling the the story of Anais Bordier, the other the one of Samantha Futerman, twins who were separated at birth. They met at the age of 25 thanks to Facebook.

To fully live the experience, it is necessary to connect two mobile of the company and append them. That's when everything takes shape: the two videos interact, soundtracks complement, and a visual game between the two screens is created. The application also offers the possibility to conduct its own story on dual screen using photos and videos of each terminal.


The originality of the campaign: A mix of sentiment and technology

I would like to attract your attention on the use of sentiment in advertising.  Advertising agencies know how to play with consumers’ feeling to send a particular message to the potential consumers who will memorize it easier that way. There are various advertisements that rely on feelings whatsoever joy, happiness or fear.
Samsung created a very sensitive campaign showing the links created by its phones. But why did they not imagine an interaction with social network?  Notice that without them this amazing story wouldn’t have existed.

Results: sentiment still work on people
