Pedigree cinema idea gives viewer 3D glasses to decide fate of maltreated dog
Dog food brand Pedigree is giving people the option of watching two different ads in cinemas, depending on what sort of 3D glasses they wear.
The two different videos, projected on to the same screen, show the consequences of whether or not the viewer donates to the Pedigree Adoption Drive, a charity to find homes for maltreated dogs in New Zealand.
In one video, a dog is rescued. In the other, the dog is never found.
The agency behind the campaign was Colenso BBDO. Finch was the production company.

Tough to watch but a clever use of technology to sell two stories with one ad.
I wonder if the agency charged for two sets of creative.
