14. 7. 2024 | 9 min read Sustainability is a topic that resonates around the world. The media industry is no exception. Modern consumers are increasingly aware of environmental issues and tend to prefer brands that commit to sustainable practices. Advertisements that emphasise sustainability can engage these consumers and increase their brand loyalty.

FOOTBALL EURO IN ADVERTISING: ENGLAND IS BEST IN EUROPE AT LEAST SOMEWHERE

24. 6. 2024 | 5 min read The group stage of the European football championship is reaching its climax and just as the Czech team's performance has not brought much joy so far, creativity is also lacking on the part of local brands. That's also why it's more interesting to look elsewhere in Europe to see what football campaigns have emerged.. Adidas – Hey, Jude The wish for all of England, articulated by the traditional prayer "Football's Coming Home", which reflects the desire to end the 58-year wait for a winning trophy, appears in a number of campaigns there. These are in many cases among the best of what has been produced for the Euros this year. Including an Adidas spot by New York agency Johannes Leonardo. On the one hand, years of disappointment, on the other, hope placed in a new generation led by Jude Bellingham. And as a logical bonus, the Beatles' "Hey, Jude" strumming the emotional chord (the ad is part of Adidas' global "You Got This" campaign).

21. 6. 2024 | 13 min read 21 June is not only the first day of summer, it is also International Yoga Day. Yoga is seen as a priceless gift of ancient Indian tradition, embodying the unity of mind and body and the harmony between man and nature. Yoga is not only a physical exercise but also a discovery of a sense of oneness of oneself, the world, and nature. Yoga is part of an ancient practice that has its roots in Hinduism, but it is often not only Hinduism that is making its way into the modern world of advertising thanks to today’s trendy movement. In today’s article, we will therefore look at whether two diametrically opposed concepts, religion and marketing, might accidentally meet.
