talkSPORT Unveils Fun UEFA Euro 2024 Campaign with a Cheeky Nod to German Stereotypes
talkSPORT has launched a new campaign to celebrate their coverage of UEFA Euro 2024鈥 and to have a friendly dig at the Germans in the process.
Created by News UK鈥檚 dedicated agency, Pulse Creative, the cheeky social film opens on a shot of the iconic Brandenburg Gate covered by a talkSPORT branded towel that reads 鈥淣o one beats us to the Euros鈥 - alluding to the famous trope about Germans and sun loungers.
Production company, The Berry, brought the concept to life using advanced CGI techniques to create the illusion of the giant towel. This seamless integration of real-world imagery and VFX results in a visually striking film that conveys talkSPORT's playful message.
Will Martin, head of marketing, talkSPORT, said, 鈥淭his summer talkSPORT will broadcast every game live from the Euros, as well as bringing you 24/7 coverage from Germany. So to acknowledge this, we have created a fun social film to show people that talkSPORT will get you to all the action first.鈥
Russell Ramsey, executive creative director, Pulse on the campaign, said, 鈥淭he use of CGI enabled us to create an epic stunt for the Euros without even having to leave our sun loungers.鈥
The media - planned and bought by Hello Yellow - targets football fans across the UK on Meta, X and YouTube and will be supported by press, digital media and further social activations both in the UK and in Germany. The campaign launched on 9th June and will be live throughout the tournament.
