A special direct message
Creative directors were surprised with a special direct message. Their ‘so-called mothers’ brought their son’s forgotten lunchboxes to work. The receptionists then delivered the lunchboxes to the creative directors. Inside the lunchboxes, alongside a tasty sandwich, was a small note from their ‘mother’: ‘Dear sweetheart, you know I’m always proud of you. I think you’re the best in your field. You’re my star, whether you win that Effie or not! Best, Mommy.'”
Creative directors were then reminded through an EDM that the end of the submission period was drawing near, featuring the videos below.
