The Spoils of Babylon Series Launch
Challenge: Launch IFCs The Spoils of Babylon, an epic mini-series based on a legendary fake book by author Eric Jonrosh (played by Will Ferrell), without referencing Ferrell. Solution: Get "method" with the marketing and make Spoils and Jonrosh feel like a real novel and author. Execution: Put the book on-sale, but always sold out. Posted Jonrosh reviews of other book-to-film adaptions online and inside branded Little Free Libraries. Re-surfaced a making-of documentary, and had Jonrosh live-tweet every episode. Effectiveness: Biggest premiere in IFC history, nearly quadrupling ratings goals.
