Disneyland Paris Takes Top Prize at 11th Annual Creative Business Idea Awards

The D23 website writes about Disneyland Paris taking the top prize for an innovative marketing idea:

How do you increase traffic at a theme park when unemployment rates hover around 10 percent and the national economy has flat-lined? That was the challenge facing communications company BETC Euro RSCG last year in its work for Disneyland Paris. The solution: Create a crowd-sourced social media campaign that reminds families of what Disneyland actually represents. Parents across Europe were asked to film the moment they told their children they would be going to Disneyland, with the footage then turned into a series of television spots on the theme, “The Magic Begins the Moment You Tell Them.”
