The VidOpp Video Contest Community

Privalia is a private club which organizes online single-brand sales of best brands, with discounts up to 70% exclusively for its members. The videos will explore, in an ironic and funny way, the benefits of online buying. Investigate why online buying – and especially the purchase on Privalia! – is better than in-store purchase, using the two slogans “Privalia is Better” as opening frame and “That’s Why” as closing frame of your videos.

Privalia was founded in Barcelona in 2006 by Lucas Carné and José Manuel Villanueva and today has more than 9 millions members around the world, placing itself as a benchmark for the industry. Privalia closed 2011 with a turnover of 320 millions dollars, has about 1000 employees in five offices in Spain, Italy, Brazil, Mexico and Germany.

The videos will explore, in an ironic and funny way, the benefits of online buying.
Investigate why online buying – and especially the purchase on Privalia! – is better than in-store purchase, using the two slogans “Privalia is Better” as opening frame and “That’s Why” as closing frame of your videos.

Here are some ideas to get you started:

The convenience of staying at home, comfort of avoiding traffic and queues at the checkout, the advantage of finding real discounts all year long … But these are just some examples! Now it’s up to you: show us your creativity!
Which benefits do you identify in online shopping? Why should we shop online rather than go into the stores?
We are asking you for an answer: try to convince the most reluctant people to shop online, develop the theme of online buying in a friendly and ironic way
You can also explore this issue from the opposite side, showing the disadvantages of in-store purchase: the most important thing is that Privalia emerge, even in this case, as the best solution for purchases.
Do NOT us dialogue / conversation / text within the video: we prefer that you focus on situations with music underneath.

Also, avoid hot topics orcontroversial and debated issues (animals, politics, religion …).

Each video must start with the frame “PRIVALIA IS BETTER” and must end with “THAT’S WHY” these materials are already available to you in the materials section materials.
