Beats by Dre - an iconic technology brand that brought us the most desired headphones and
music electronics today.
Beats controls some 70% of the headphones market, thanks to lightning-fast marketing and a smart grasp of pop culture.
This project presents ideas for social media activations on Twitter
and Vine for Beats by Dre targeting the Millennial population segment.

This idea is all about self-expression through art, music and design. It will create sharable moments by utilizing the power of live activation and two influencers.
Team up with Kehinde Wiley - a New York-based portrait
painter, who is known for his highly naturalistic paintings of
urban youth in heroic poses.
Beats by Dre will commission a painting of a person wearing
Beats headphones. The painting will be finished up in a
prominent outdoor location in NYC where people could be a
part of the creative process.
The session will end in a pop-up surprise performance from
Pharrell Williams
The event will be amplified on Twitter (paid and organic
media), pre and post event via Wiley’s and Pharrell’s accounts
and through @beatsbydre

Giant Beats headphones will be located in the 5 major city squares (where there is no traffic allowed).
People will be able to plug into the giant Beats and listen to
music. Different plugs will play different types of music
The activation will provide an opportunity for people to take
photos and post them with a hashtag #MegaBeats
