This is the second CSA campaign Good Eye Deer has produced for Lions Australia. The first campaign, saw a 60% increase in membership enquiries for Lions Australia, putting them No.1 in the world for membership enquiries.
For the new campaign, we wanted to continue the use of humour to drive engagement. But this time we recommended changing the focus from what they do to what it means. We wanted to help audiences understand the emotional and human impact that Lions have on both individuals and our community at large.
Selling sausages is only a fraction of what Lions do. But it is, arguably, one of their most visible public activities. We proposed that they own that stereotype – that they own the sausage in a bid to help the public understand the value of what they do. The More than sausages campaign turns the humble sausage into a symbol representing both Lions Club members and the good they do.
The idealised, hill-top BBQ was designed to create positive and warm associations with the brand and elevate the ordinary to the extra ordinary. The shoot took place over a single day followed by a series of pickups. The majority of cast members were non actors from Newcastle, NSW, who contributed a lot of time for very little to support this great cause.
