Purely editorial and with a high potential for spreading, the idea transforms what is being robbed from the public into concrete examples of goods and services, thus attracting new readers to the digital version of the newspaper.
Execution:
The tools intention is to immerse the reader in the issue of corruption and its direct consequences. The tool constantly uses the relationship between a news piece on embezzlement and a news piece on lacking resources, with data conversion and visualization, thus illustrating to the user everything that he is losing when public funds are misappropriated. The visual elements also receive an editorial treatment, with grids, layouts, graphical hierarchy and photojournalism present throughout.

Campaign Description:
Brazil is going through generalized crises. The political and economic crises are aggravated by collapses in public services, just as the greatest corruption scandals in the history of the country are coming to light. There are so many accusations, involving such enormous sums of money, that readers fail to grasp the magnitude of what they represent. Therefore, we created “From Real to Reality – The Corruption Converter”. The tool allows users to convert the figures reported in news articles involving corruption into public goods and services that people always need but don’t always receive. This established a connection between the news about money that went missing to the news about where it is sorely needed.
Synopsis:
Estadão, one of Brazil’s most important newspapers, founded 141 years ago, needed to transfer to its digital version the credibility commanded by its print version. At the same time, it needed to incorporate more technology and make the analyses published online more interactive, thereby bringing more readers to its online portal and driving up the number of advertisers.
