“Dream State” Fall Campaign Industry Overview
Explore Minnesota’s fall campaign taps into the magic of Minnesota travel moments and the memories that definitely do not fade with time. The continuation of the “Dream State” campaign invites people to dream of the magic of traveling again. This campaign will repurpose our summer video and feature a :30 and :15 video spot that uses a mix of awe-inspiring natural cinematography and post-production effects for “dreamlike” enhanced experiences. The spot will transport the audience to another world in which one can escape through our storytelling and inspire their own future adventures to our State. Because traveling in Minnesota truly can feel out of this world. These videos showcase similar scenes to our summer campaign but have also been enhanced with color to give a fall feel to outdoor scenes.
Beginning August 22nd, our "Dream State" campaign will run on connected TV, digital and paid social in Fall markets of Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Omaha, St. Louis, Iowa, Wisconsin, and Northern Illinois.
