北京赛车pk10’s Brittaney Kiefer and Omar Oakes talk about Fifa’s latest campaign and what it teaches advertisers about diversity and authentic storytelling.
Fifa’s campaign, which won Channel 4’s annual Diversity in Advertising Award, depicts the Midnight Ramadan League, a grassroots club in Birmingham that helps Muslims continue to play football during the month of Ramadan. Kiefer explains unique aspects of the creative process and why it is a significant step forward for the ad industry. Director Bassam Tariq called it an "unapologetically Muslim commercial" and it holds lessons for other marketers.
The pair also discuss Channel 4’s new pregnancy loss policy and why it could represent a shift in the industry’s workplace culture.
Then Kiefer interviews Iris chief strategy officer Ben Essen about what the advertising and marketing sectors can do to fight climate change.
