It’s a Hunter’s World: The goal of this campaign is to incorporate hunters into everyday society/mundane activities. For the viral aspect, these could each be shown as a series of stills or short video clips. Each of the clips could carry the copy “It’s A Hunter’s World…” and a motion graphic showing a copy of the game. The following are some situations in which you might find the hunter:

Hunter Tennis

A player in a standard tennis outfit (headband, shorts, etc...) is getting ready to serve. This all looks very important. He takes a long beat and throws the ball in the air...BOOM...The player ducks freaked out...The ball flies out of the air... PLAYER AAHHHHH! ANGLE ON: A deer hunter in camo and orange vest is standing with a smoking shot gun. His trusty hunting dog is at his side. HUNTER Go get it boy. The dog runs over and grabs what’s left of the ball.

The Legend Of Kurt Longbow: This campaign focuses on “Legendary Hunter Kurt Longbow”. Through a series of Polaroid-style still photography, Kurt Longbow’s epic hunting life can add a humorous marketing twist while emphasizing the integrity of hunting that the target demographic is looking for. The tone of the ads will be similar to the fan-developed legends of Chuck Norris or the SNL sketches where characters ramble on about a “great” mane named Bill Brasky. Once Kurt’s legendary status is recognized by Deer Hunter fans, the campaign can branch off into

Below is a sample segment building up the character of Kurt: Kurt’s Life This segment would be a “This Is Your Life” piece where Kurt’s supposed friends and family tell the story of Kurt growing up. Polaroid-style pictures serve as most of the visuals. (Note: Character VO’s could be replaced by an announcer or narrator to simplify the concept.) INT.

humor to something intense, like the current Gatorade “Is It In You?” campaigns. A few scenarios where the concept could really stands out:

- A corporate setting where everyone is in suits and ties, except for the hunter in orange.

- A crowd of people at an orchestra concert, where a handful of hunters stand out in orange.

- A wedding where the groom wears an orange vest. - A chef prepares a meal in an orange vest.
