The Project: We challenged ourselves to find a new way to connect Kylian Mbappé to a young audience and make him not just a guy from an ad, but a friend, coach, and personal motivator. Together with Mbappé & Meta, we created a mini digital version of the footballer that kids could talk to and train with. All through an Instagram DM experience.
