CREATIVE DIRECTION IN MOTION
To ensure authenticity, I personally oversaw the PR shoot in London, crafting interview questions that highlighted each cast member’s unique personality. This hands-on approach resulted in dynamic, genuine interactions and valuable content for our social media strategy. We also created tailored TikTok challenges and behind-the-scenes content to deepen fan engagement and humanize the cast.
