No More FOMO

A digital-first campaign under the line 'Watch What You're Missing', running films in which Arab celebrities suffer the discomfort of being out of the loop on a trending show. Ascia Alshammiri, Bader Alshuaibi, Aseel Omran, Taha Desouky, Amy Samir Ghanem and Hassan El Raddad fronted it, and its original song was picked up as a sample by TikTok creators.

The brief
Younger Arab viewers who feel left out when everyone is talking about a show they have not watched.
The idea
Digital films show Arab stars such as Aseel Omran and Hassan El Raddad squirming when they have missed the series everyone is discussing, set to an original song TikTok creators reused.
What to borrow
Turning fear of missing out into comedy with famous faces makes a streaming catalogue feel like social currency.
