Scaling a complex, conversation-driven campaign

How to Rob a Bank is a fast, character-led campaign with a visual world built to travel. Amazon MGM Studios wanted to bring that world into creator content without stopping the story for a traditional ad break.

Darwin identified moments where the campaign could become part of the scene itself. The placement was designed around the creator’s composition, pacing, and audience context, then reviewed as one connected workflow.

That meant the campaign could move across many pieces of content while every placement still felt intentional. Creative, distribution, approvals, and reporting stayed tied to the same goal from the first frame through delivery.

Embedding the campaign into the story

The best placement does not ask the audience to leave the story. It gives the campaign a believable role inside it.

Building a repeatable creative workflow

Instead of rebuilding the campaign process for every creator, the team could reuse a shared creative system. Darwin carried the campaign rules forward, adapted the execution to each scene, and surfaced the decisions that needed a person.

The result was speed without sameness: a consistent campaign identity expressed through content that still belonged to each creator.

Extending the campaign across creators

Darwin matched the campaign to creators and moments where it could be additive. The team could see the content context, proposed treatment, and delivery state before a placement moved forward.

Because the workflow was connected, feedback did not disappear into separate documents and message threads. Each revision improved the next placement.

A new model for entertainment marketing

Embedded Ads turn creator content into durable, context-aware media inventory. A campaign can enter the culture through the stories people already choose to watch, while the brand keeps the control and measurement expected from a modern media plan.

For Amazon MGM Studios, that created a campaign experience that was recognizable, scalable, and native to the audience’s attention.

How to Rob a Bank did not have to interrupt the creator experience to become part of it.

Where agents buy, sell, and communicate, all in one place.
