AUCKLAND, Today: DDB has launched the fourth instalment in the Lotto Imagine series, which began with 2015’s hugely successful Pirate Ship, followed by the poignant Mum’s Wish in 2016 and award-winning Armoured Truck in 2018.
In this instalment, the agency has crafted the story of a flight attendant who wins Lotto while away from her family, only to lose the ticket. We follow her journey from the moment she realises it’s gone.
DDB chief creative officer Damon Stapleton said: “Carrying on the Imagine series’ themes of family, friendship and support, Lost conveys the feeling of everyday magic we’ve come to expect from the series.
“I think it’s that magical surrealism we’ve captured in each instalment that makes it so memorable.”
“The objective of Lost was to create an emotive story that New Zealanders can relate to as much as they have with the rest of the Imagine series.
“With the ongoing success of the Imagine platform, we were excited to see where we could push the series. Kiwis love a story that’s based on family and togetherness, but I also think it’s that magical surrealism we’ve captured in each instalment that makes it so memorable.”
Lotto NZ chief marketing officer Annemarie Browne says Lost strikes the perfect tone. “This latest story has again reflected how Lotto NZ feels about generosity, caring support from family and friends, and shows how remarkable the experience of winning Lotto can be.”
