Educating Audiences with Infotainment

February 17, 2016 at 09:56

by Chris Rogne

The main goal of many of our clients is education. They want the audience to learn something—this is particularly true for our tradeshow clients but many others as well. Infotainment works well to achieve those goals. What is infotainment? Info from information combined with tainment from entertainment. In essence, it’s a great way to teach information in a unique way.

The most effective way to teach something to someone is to make it fun. Many companies realize this too, which is why gamification is gaining popularity in the work place too, for on-boarding new employees and for ongoing training programs. While we enjoy adding gamification to infotainment experiences, and we do it often, it’s not the right solution for everyone. Some brands like to keep it interesting and interactive but simply want the information to be accessible and engaging. (We do that too!)

By making it interactive, the participant becomes more engaged in the experience. People fall into different types of learners: visual, auditory, reading & writing and kinesthetic (hands-on). Our infotainment solutions can be created to reach all of these different styles and all of the ones we develop will benefit both the visual and the kinesthetic learners. For those that are reading & writing learners, our trivia app adds the question and answer element that those learners crave.

We developed a cool interactive catalog experience to teach attendees about Oil and Gas. Check out our project video.

We would love to develop a solution that meets your needs. Contact us today.

Gamification for Honda Entertains and Teaches Recycling

September 4, 2015 at 12:18

by Chris Rogne

I’ve written about how our interactive infotainment solutions can help teach participants information companies want to convey, as well as many other ways these activation can help attain goals. When we meet with prospective clients, we assess their goals, budget, allocated space at the event and then we determine which of our activation will meet their campaign objectives.

Honda reached out to Elation Digital to create an educational game for the 2015 International Car Show. There was a dedicated area to keep children occupied and they wanted something that would be engaging and different. We developed a custom game to teach children about recycling. Multiple gaming kiosks, at varying heights, were set up for children to play.

The game had different recycle bins at the bottom of the screen and the colors represent what types of recyclables are allowed to go in each bin. Different objects fly on the screen at varying speeds and the child uses her finger to drag the object to the correct bin.

The children were engaged and educated at the same time. Parents were pleased and so was Honda!


Check out the video of the experience:

by Chris Rogne

The crowds at the Summerthings Event in Golden Gate Park enjoyed this unique “First in Kind” multitouch sensory interactive experience giving participants the opportunity to interact with thousands of sardines in a Baitball simulation.

Visitors to this special activation had to opportunity to create a video with the ability to select a shape and choose music to make theirs unique. They could choose a shape of heart, star, fish or funnel and their music choices included Hip Hop, Rock, Classical or Country.

We used our data capture software to create a personalized experience for the visitor by adding their name at the beginning of their video. Once the video was created, users had the option share via social media and to post their individual creation to YouTube to share with friends.

Elation Digital worked closely with experiential agency Digital Media Etc to bring this activation to life for one of the world’s best known aquariums.

It’s All About Connection – Gen C

June 26, 2015 at 11:00

by Chris Rogne

Connecting to your customers is key. To do that, it’s crucial to know your audience. Who are you targeting? There’s so much information about Millennials, how to reach them and why they require a different marketing approach than other groups. Now comes Gen C also referred to as Generation C. The C stands for connected.

Is this a different group of people? Gen C is not defined by the year you were born but by your digital actions. When writing about millennials, I found myself thinking I had many of the attributes that described them (well not the age part-I’m older) but then I read all the articles about Gen C, these descriptors are a much closer description of how I work and surf. What are these characteristics?

• Connected—well of course, that’s the premise of this blog. Many were born into this technologically driven connected entity and others have adopted it. They connect through technology: smart phones, iPads, tablets, and wearable devices. It’s how they create deeper relationships with their family, friends, interests and co-workers. They are online—all the time.
• Community centric—as a way to stay connected to things they are passionate about, they think community by joining and following online groups or starting them.
• Content driven—whether they create it or consume it, it’s important to them. It’s where they derive their information and that drives their actions. Videos have become a huge part of the content they enjoy and YouTube is a favorite destination for them.
• Communicators—they communicate digitally and often. It’s become an easier medium for them to reach out this way. Social platforms have certainly helped with this.
• Collaborators—they absorb the information they consume and share it. This allows them to collaborate with companies and brands. They provide reviews and look to others for their reactions and opinions

gen c

Do these describe you too? I’m sure some, if not all, these apply to many of you. If you are reading this–you are connected. Gen C overlaps with Millennials and other generations too. Since it’s based on behaviors, the age group can span from teens to retirees.

So what do we do now? Just as in reaching millennials, it is important to connect to the Gen C audience in the medium they prefer—digital. Meet them where they are, allow and encourage them to interact and communicate with you. They are already connected. You just need them to connect with you.

Why Experiential Marketing Works

April 30, 2015 at 12:44

by Chris Rogne

Experiential Marketing is on the rise and we’ve been busy, so it must be true. Marketers are dedicating larger budgets toward incorporating these initiatives into their marketing mix. According to Event Marketer’s Event Track 2014, it’s an increase of 5% and is expected to be higher throughout 2015. It also says that marketers saw an ROI of 5 to 1–that’s 7% higher than the previous year.

But what is it about experiential marketing that makes it so successful? According to Quartz, it’s “an alternative to hard-hitting selling tactics, experiential marketing is fuzzy and abstract—prioritizing delight, touch, wonder, play, and encounter.” This is a great description and these attributes touch upon emotions and emotions are what drive sales!

Experiential marketing can be incorporated into the marketing mix in many ways and with that comes flexibility to develop a successful program. With so many choices, marketers select the solution(s) that best fits their brand and (prospective) customer. As new technologies continue to emerge, the number of options grows: gamification, RFID, custom apps, beacons, wearable technology, infotainment, interactive and immersion experiences­—the list goes on.

Marketers are learning that active participation between the customer and these programs is increasing. It’s driving engagement and it’s deepening the emotional connection to the brand through these new and innovative experiential solutions.

5 Reasons Why Gamification is the Right Experiential Solution for Events

March 26, 2015 at 16:04

by Chris Rogne

Gamification is defined in many different ways. A business using gamification for its own internal use utilizes games for on boarding, training, employee motivation and peer building, to name a few. For companies looking to incorporate gamification into an event, trade show or conference, it solves completely different goals:

1) Booth attraction—People are waving their arms around or jumping in place. These types of games work to bring a level of excitement to your booth that gets people curious. Once you’ve gained their attention you can share the message you want them to learn.

2) Lead generation—Capturing attendee information before playing a game is a great way to generate leads. People don’t mind giving up a few personal details for some fun. Be sure to collect the data points you will use to contact your lead for post event follow-up to keep the conversation going and extend the relationship.

3) Brand awareness—Perhaps you are a well-known brand and just want viewership to stay in the minds of consumers. If you are a smaller brand or a company wanting to create a brand image, games can be leveraged to reinforce brand messaging throughout the game.

4) Occupy and entertain—Have you been fortunate enough to have an interested group of people in your booth but all your booth attendees are with other people? Having a game in the booth that reinforces your brand while they are waiting to learn more about your product or service is a great way to keep them occupied and engaged until someone is free to chat with them. Also, if you anticipate long lines at your event, having gaming stations throughout the line is an excellent way to keep your participants happy while waiting.

5) Infotainment—Playing games can actually be created to teach the participant in your booth what you want them to learn such as key features of a product. It becomes an interactive canvass to help to convey the message(s) you want to share.

gamificiationAny or all of these reasons are why you should choose adding games to your next event, trade show or conference. Gamification allows for a fun interaction with your brand which leaves a longer lasting impression on an attendee.

Generate Leads With 1 to 1 Interactive Technologies for Tradeshows

March 16, 2015 at 11:25

by Chris Rogne

Participants and attendees at tradeshows and events have goals. They know what they are looking for and while many will still walk the entire show, they know what they want to see. You need to grab their attention. How will you do that?

· Entice them with exciting elements in your booth
· Keep the experience one to one
· Make it personal
· Teach them something

Do you have something exciting to showcase? If you are a technology company or if you solve a need, you probably do. If you don’t, there are plenty of experiential technology companies that can help make your product or service enticing.

One to one experiences resonate more than group presentations and will leave a more lasting impression. Have interactive solutions for them to have contact with which will make it more memorable–which is good for your brand.

Personalization is a buzzword I’ve seen discussed lately but it’s always been important. Be sure to tailor your pitch specifically to the person’s needs and company. Keep asking questions because you might have a solution for them they didn’t even know they needed.

Learning something new stimulates the brain and can pique interest. Think about what do you want people at your booth or show to learn and how you can make teaching that interesting.

Attendees are smart. Make them feel special so they don’t feel like everyone else that stopped by. Use these ideas and choose an experiential partner that understands your needs and how to get your audience excited about your brand. Once they are excited you will generate solid leads of people who now have a real interest in your company, product or service.

How Adding Interactive Solutions Can Drive Engagement for Your Next Event

February 17, 2015 at 10:24

by Chris Rogne

Entertaining and engaging an audience with interactive solutions can drive brand awareness, aid in teaching your message and meet your campaign goals. You have a strategy–what is the best way to get the information to your audience? Digital Interactive Solutions.

Here are some examples of how getting your audience involved generates buzz and knowledge about a brand.

Food Bank of NY

The Food Bank of NY put together a program to educate teens so they could learn to make better food choices for their health. Their campaign was #changeonething. The strategy was to teach teens that if they learn to change one thing rather than their entire lifestyle completely, that change would help them make better choices over time. Two games were created for this campaign to help instill these better choices. One was a trivia game where the teens had to answer questions about making food choices. The other was a multi-touch game where food images appeared on screen and users had to choose only the healthy options by touching the correct ones and ignoring the unhealthy choices. This was a great way to disseminate information in a fun and engaging way.

food bank trivia

Ministry of Health–Argentina

The Ministry of Health in Argentina wanted to share tips to staying healthy during summer. We developed interactive solutions to engage audiences on the beaches in Buenos Aires. Running in place against a friend, choosing healthy food options and jumping in place to get your heart pumping helped spread their message and were all very successful.  These games created excitement and the participants learned while they played. Players also had the opportunity to have their pictures taken and could share these photos socially. Data capture was used so the Ministry of Health could collect email addresses to send news and information to help participants stay healthy.

Bien-verano

Twingo

When Renault released Twingo, they wanted to do something special for the launch. We created a Kinect motion game where audiences or individuals could control a Twingo car and maneuver it by the movement of the player’s arms and body–move your arms to the left and the car will move to the left, move arms to the right and the car moves to the right–as it drove through a virtual city collecting points. The game was premiered at Kineopolis Cinema and there, the audience worked together to move the car. Getting the entire audience to move their arms simultaneously to control the car created an exciting experience to launch Twingo.

TW-003

Deciding to offer solutions for your audience to engage and interact with your brand will leave a more lasting impression than the typical event experience of simply talking about it.

Successful Show at IAEE Expo! Expo!

December 11, 2014 at 19:28

by Chris Rogne

We just wrapped up at IAEE Expo! Expo! We showcased our photo activation software, data capture as well as several interactive games, including a custom game with Kinect Motion technology. By simply moving your arms in a steering wheel motion you can direct a car through a virtual city.

We teamed up with Cordell Racing who offers simulated racing experiences and corporate branding on Nascar race cars. By combining our event technology and social media solutions with Cordell’s expertise in corporate sponsorship and promotions at events and tradeshows, we can offer clients an even greater opportunity to draw crowds and generate brand recognition.

This unique combination drew in a large crowd as well as much interest in our combined offering. What did we learn? Two IS greater than one and it’s always a good idea to pack extra hardware so when all the parts don’t arrive, you are in a much better place to start the show!
