Project Drive-In
By the end of 2013 the movie industry moved away from analogue to digital production only, making many drive-in movie theaters to face the options to upgrade (+$75,000) or close all around the US.
Together with RPA and Honda we at STOPP/LA (now MediaMonks) develop a campaign site to save the these drive-in movie theaters to upgrade to digital projectors. Users voted what theaters Honda should sponsor with new projectors. Originally, the top 5 theaters would receive the upgrade but thanks to the enormous response from users more then 10 theaters has been sponsored by Honda and in total 27 theaters has been saved.
