LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY - THE MUSIC SELFIE EXPERIMENT

Created to celebrate individuality through music, The Music Selfie Experiment allowed visitors to scan their unique facial features to create their own personal musical portrait through the use of face recognition technology and a corresponding music algorithm. It was developed specifically to promote the Lincoln brand during the 58th Annual Grammy Awards show.

RESULTS:

The Music Selfie Experiment became Lincoln’s most shared and liked campaign OF ALL TIME. It earned over 63 Million impressions, 316,000+ unique visitors, 257,000+ completed selfies, and an unprecedented 81% completion rate. During the Grammy’s broadcast itself, Lincoln commanded a staggering 55% of all social traffic - 10x that of Hyundai (the official automotive sponsor).
