Summary
Meet members of the Havas team responsible for developing and delivering creative ideas behind the adverts you see on billboards, when scrolling through your favourite apps, on the radio, on television - everywhere!
In this film we meet Art Director Sam Adio and Copywriter Ken Abalos, who sit within the creative team responsible for looking after the visuals and words behind the campaigns. We also hear from Elvin Musiriza, an Assistant Producer who started with the agency through their platform internship programme. Elvin works across every aspect of ad production to ensure a smooth delivery.
