A Cry for Hydration

Creative idea

In order for Studena, a challenger water, to stand out on the market, we built a bold idea: saying “I’m dying of thirst” may be a joke, but dehydration is dead serious. So instead of classic warnings, Studena “mourned” the dehydrated in the campaign “A Cry for Hydration!” Traditional Croatian mourners delivered funny lines about everyday dehydration moments, creating viral content, including a 2-minute video and social posts. Through a social media activation, followers could tag their dehydrated friends, and the Studena Wailers created custom videos for each person, reminding them in a fun way about the danger of dehydration.
