BronzeDigital - Online Film Campaign – Long-Form

To reach a younger and more diverse audience, Harley-Davidson created a 12-part doc series called Common Ground, which followed Harley riders on a foreign exchange program (of sorts). Bikers from New Zealand, Mexico and India took newbie riders from Nova Scotia, Quebec and Alberta on a six-day cross-Canada tour, resulting in more than 47 million impressions overall, as well as an adaptation of the online series into a one-hour doc on Discovery Canada.
