https://www.behance.net/gallery/55881941/Blancpain-Ocean-Commitment
I created and developed a custom landing page to promote a new watch model and promote the Blancpain ocean commitment program.

The design and development have been made by Superhuit, a Swiss digital communication agency. This campaign is not online anymore.

A WordPress and WooCommerce-based online campaign.
The goal was to help the NGO raise some money online with the current COVID-19 situation. Together with the company Superhuit, we proposed and developed a mini-game concept according to the company message and guidelines. After playing and getting the best score, the user was motivated to convert his score into a real donation. The campaign ran for one month and the fallouts have been excellent.
