Unraveling Multimodality with Large Language Models.pdf
Editor's Notes
Launched in late 2007, the first DEWmocracy initiative opened product development up
to consumers and asked them to choose the next DEW’s flavor, color, name and
graphics—and as many as 1 million participated in the process. The result was Voltage,
a citrus-charged beverage that came to market in January 2009.
DEWmocracy 2 launched in July 2009. The idea was to give the brand’s fans another
outlet to express their passion for the brand and to create a robust dialogue with DEW
drinkers and to rerun the campaign with more consumer control and by using newly
emerged social media tools in the process. The plan was to leverage social media
platforms and innovative ideas to take the campaign to the next level.
Stage 1- tastings of 7 flavor options in cities across America. participants record their impressions via video. Also sent tasting pack to 50 brand fanatics.
Stage 2- created closed communities for brand fanatics, sent them samples of each flavor, and get them to pick a name for their favorite flavor.
Stage 3&4- closed community picked 3 colors per flavor, and then open voting to choose the best color for each.
Stage 5- users submit art for the cans, best are picked. prize is $10k and a macbook pro.
Stage 6- users submit 12 sec commercial concepts. winners will get a production budget to bring their vision to life.
