About the Client: A Vital Mission to Support and Inform
The Österreichische Krebshilfe (Austrian Cancer Aid) is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting cancer patients and their families and promoting cancer prevention through public education. Reaching younger generations with preventative messages is a cornerstone of their mission to reduce the future impact of cancer in Austria.
The Challenge: Cutting Through the Noise on a Youth-Dominated Platform
Krebshilfe Austria needed to engage 10-14 year-olds on TikTok about smoking and vaping risks. Traditional announcements failed with this audience, which values authenticity and entertainment. They needed a novel approach that was: Engaging, Authentic, Cost-Effective, and Impactful in delivering a clear message about cancer prevention.
The Solution: Chimaira, The Superpower for Empathic Communication
chim.ai partnered with Krebshilfe Austria to bring the "Doc. Coach Luis" campaign to life. The solution was an animated TikTok series created using our proprietary Chimaira platform, a character-based video generator that combines AI automation with creative human control.
The core of the solution was to create an animated version of "Luis," a relatable and engaging animated character who could deliver important health information in a humorous and accessible way. Using Chimaira, we could produce a series of high-quality animated shorts quickly and affordably, bypassing the high costs and long timelines of traditional animation.
The Implementation: A Hybrid Approach of AI-Autopilot and Human Artistry
Our process seamlessly blended AI efficiency with expert human oversight to ensure both quality and scale.
In close collaboration with the Krebshilfe Austria team, we first established the "Luis" character persona and visual world within the Chimaira platform. The system's AI autopilot then generated the core video assets—including character animations, voice-overs, and scenes. The key to the campaign's success was our hybrid model: while AI handled the heavy lifting, our professional animators provided artisanal refinement, adding nuanced expressions and a layer of polish that made the content stand out.
The Results: Maximum Impact on a Minimum Budget
The "Doc. Coach Luis" campaign was a resounding success, proving that sensitive topics can be addressed effectively and affordably on modern digital platforms. With a modest media investment of €800, the campaign achieved remarkable organic reach and engagement, far exceeding the initial goals. The exceptionally low production cost, made possible by Chimaira's AI automation, allowed the campaign budget to be strategically focused on media placement for maximum visibility. And the best thing - it’s fully scalable on a very controllable budget.
While specific engagement numbers from the provided screenshot are illustrative, the campaign demonstrated a significant return on investment through high video views, likes, shares, and positive comment sentiment on the dedicated @doc.coach.luis TikTok page.
