Describe the campaign/entry
The goal of the "Get Glowing" campaign was to provide young pedestrians attention to their own safety on the roads. The target audience was the young Russian (16 -25 years old). The campaign objective was to persuade them to wear the self-reflecting clothes and accessories with the purpose of reducing the number of accidents with pedestrians in the dark time of day.
Describe how the campaign/entry was launched across each channel in the order of implementation
Some medias and actions were used to implement the campaign objectives, to achieve the target audience and to draw an attention to the problem:
- translations in cinemas;
- translations on the main Russian and youth TV channels;
- ad placement on YouTube.com;
- ad translations on the radio;
- the creation of the "Movement for Safe Traffic" page on bezdtp.ru;

Give some idea of how successful this campaign/entry was with both client and consumer
The campaign was actively discussed in social networks and in the media. The 'Get Glowing' site received 70,000 page impressions. 200,000 bracelets in total were distributed during the campaign in clubs and on the streets of the cities.
The main result: self-reflecting bracelets became cult accessories in youth communities. It’s fashionable now to wear self-reflecting clothes and accessories.
The campaign was run in November and December 2010. At the beginning of 2011, the number of run-down accidents with 16-25 years old pedestrians in the dark time of day were 11.6% less, in comparison with the same period in 2010.
