ESPN Life Stages
ESPN is great at selling advertising aimed at 18-24 year old males. But between all their TV programming, ESPN radio, the Web site, mobile, and more, ESPN has content to appeal to Americans of every life stage. Our film, Seasons, brings this fact to life with emotional resonance. ESPN uses this film today to broaden the appeal of their network to current advertisers and to bring in new ones.
ESPN College Football
Big New York advertisers and media agencies don't always understand the passion for college football that exists in places like Tuscaloosa and Iowa City. As such, they don't pay the premium for advertising on college football that they do for, say, the NFL. ESPN Analytics had a simple task for True Stories: bring this passion for college football to life in the most emotional, compelling way possible. In response, we immersed in college football culture and came out with the short film, I Believe.
