EXPERIMENTAL & WEIRD
A street lined with pink cats, nostalgic infomercials layered with GIFs, looping videos of indie bands and domestic abuse survivors… sounds strange, right? Luckily, that’s #onbrand for our Nominees across Experimental & Weird in Film & Video, who are taking risks to elevate brands’ messages.

These Food & Beverage Nominees in Advertising, Media & PR will have you saying mmmmm! (or ordering a taco).
