TIMOTHEE CHALAMET “A COMPLETE UNKNOWN” SEARCHLIGHT CAMPAIGN - On the heels of his Oscar nomination and SNL hosting, we wanted to take a look at the ways Timothee & Searchlight promoted this film. This movie and subsequent promotion feel like a true labor of love. They spent 5 years developing and making the film and you can hear the passion in every one of Timmy’s interviews. His energy is contagious and it translates into the marketing and promotional campaign. Searchlight hit all of the right notes, tapping into music lovers and general audience from the cover of Rolling Stone, Apple Music, Hollywood Reporter cover and SNL (among many others!). But it was the unexpected and new media moments they chose that felt special and went viral. They tapped into Timmy’s Gen Z audience with — the Nardwuar interview, Theo Von podcast, ESPN College gameday, and surprising the University of Minnesota’s marching band and Vanderbilt. He arrived on a bike to the premiere which generated tons of coverage. And Searchlight partnered with historic music venues across the country to pay tribute to Bob Dylan — a truly special PR & marketing campaign.
