DADI Award Nomination!
As a further endorsement, we were delighted to be nominated for a DADI Award for our work on the ‘Burns Around the World Campaign’.
The Campaign
We were challenged to deliver a creative idea to engage the 55k-subscriber Glengoyne Family, who are spread around the world, in a celebration of Robert Burns.
Our idea?
Invite every single one of the Family members to contribute a line or two from his immortal poem ‘Tae a Haggis’, select the very best entries, and edit them together to produce a seamless reading that takes the viewer around the world.
The results were amazing, with fans living everywhere from from snowy Norway to sun-soaked Australia, and everywhere in between.
