A ONE-OF-A-KIND TERRITORY, WHERE WE HAVE BUILT A STRONG AND UNIQUE IDENTITY

Through various workshops focused on brand fundamentals—such as mission, vision, values, and the attributes and benefits of the territory—it was essential to establish a unique positioning that enhances the region’s identity.

Highlighting Its History: A Unique Territory
This land holds a historical feature older than humanity itself—the Eye of Quebec, a prestigious remnant of a meteorite impact over 217 million years ago.

The "O" in Manicouagan was strategically used to represent this astrobleme, while isolating "Manic" as a nod to the region’s hydroelectric dams, leveraging the assets that define its reputation.

Today, the territory’s brand universe carries a promise for its citizens, its culture, and its ambition.

MULTIPLE ACTIVATIONS IN THREE PHASES

The activation campaigns for the citizen and economic phases were launched between 2023 and early 2024. The tourism campaign, on the other hand, was deployed in the spring of 2024.

CITIZEN CAMPAIGN

1.5 KM² PER INHABITANT
We produced a brand film that leverages the vastness of the territory to highlight the unique ratio of land to population.

After calculations, Manicouagan offers approximately 1.5 km² of land per inhabitant. This key data point became the foundation for conceptualizing content across various platforms.

Through distinct journeys showcasing the wild, expansive nature of the region, the warm spirit of its people, and the endless opportunities Manicouagan offers, the visuals are reinforced by a powerful manifesto. The campaign culminates in a strong closing statement:

"1.5—that’s what allows us to become 1. We. Manicouagan. Land of visionaries."

ECONOMIC CAMPAIGN

MEETING VISIONARIES
We dive into the heart of the human and economic activities of the MRC of Manicouagan. We set out to meet this land of visionaries and bring this new brand to life. Here, the focus is on the region's economic players.

Through a 5-episode web series, hosted by Jean-Michel Peloquin (Les Expats, OuiSurf), we highlighted the wealth of resources in Manicouagan, all thanks to the people who make it thrive.

From the immigration office to the clay baths along the river, we showcased the vibrant economic fabric of the region. A promising territory for those who believe in its potential.

TOURISM CAMPAIGN

Presented as a humorous commercial, this campaign plays on the cliché of a tourist searching for the Manic 5 dam. Through several short scenes, viewers discover all that the territory has to offer, ultimately concluding with the visit to the dam.

The campaign was launched in spring 2024.

WEBSITE

We deployed the identity and activations of the three campaigns on a website.
