THIS YEAR’S WINNER OF THE LION OF ST. MARK IS FAMOUS BRAZILIAN CREATIVE MARCELLO SERPA
The organizers of the International Festival of Creativity Cannes Lions this year will award the prestigious Lion of St. Mark to Marcello Serpa, longtime creative director of the Brazilian agency Almap BBDO, for his significant and outstanding contribution to creativity in the advertising industry.
According to Philip Thomas, Cannes Lions festival director, “Marcello’s achievements are known the world over, but perhaps most notably he was responsible for taking home Latin America’s first Grand Prix in 1993. He’s since served on juries four times, twice as president, and during his tenure, AlmapBBDO won Agency of the Year three times.”
Marcello Serpa (1963) joined the agency Almap BBDO in 1993 and together with Jose Luiz Madeira managed to save the agency from disaster. And, not only that, it has become one of the most successful agencies in Sao Paulo. Two decades later Serpa is becoming known as one of the most awarded creative directors in Brazil. He has won more than 160 Cannes Lions. Last summer he and Madeira announced that after 22 years he is leaving Almap BBDO. (Marketing Magazin)
APPLE’S FIRST ORIGINAL CONTENT WAS DRAKE’S “HOTLINE BLING” VIDEO
It turns out that Apple’s first venture into the realm of original content was Drake’s “Hotline Bling” music video, for which the tech giant had paid not only to release the viral video through its streaming service but also to produce the accompanying video. After an exclusive release on Apple Music in October last year, before being shared on other platforms such as YouTube the following week, this viral hit has even become a meme in its own right, thanks to the interesting dance choreography it featured. There are also information that Apple is currently producing a six-episode series titled “Vital Signs”, a biographical TV show following Beats co-founder and Apple employee Dr. Dre.
HILTON BATTLES THIRD PARTY TRAVEL SITES WITH ITS BIGGEST CAMPAIGN TO DATE
Hilton is launching its biggest global campaign to date, called “Stop Clicking Around”, which encourages travelers to book rooms directly through the brand instead of hunting around on other sites like Expedia to find the lowest prices. The hotel chain’s latest initiative attempts to show consumers the perks of joining and booking travel though its loyalty program, HHonors. Benefits include an “exclusive discount on room rates,” free Wi-Fi and the ability to choose a room from a digital floor plan through its mobile app. The global push is kicking off in the UK and US this week with a spot created by London-based agency Fold7. According to Hilton, 57 billion of its HHonors points – which it says equals about 1.6 million free nights – went to waste last year because guests booked their rooms through a third party.
