WUSA-TV’s Post

🏈 Warmin' up... Did you know that last year's Super Bowl ranks second only to the first moon landing as the most-watched TV program ever? 🚀🏈 Let's sprinkle in a little context here: Live sports reign supreme as the most popular content on American television. In fact, all of the top 10 telecasts in the US last year were major sporting events. This trend isn't new; throughout US history, 22 out of the 30 most-watched television programs ever are Super Bowls (with the 2023 NFL championship game coming in at No. 2, just behind the moon landing).

LeBron James, Peyton Manning and Obamas plan basketball series for Netflix I #AthletesInBusiness: LeBron James and Peyton Manning, are looking to join forces in the entertainment world. James’s entertainment company, SpringHill Company, is in talks with Manning’s Omaha Productions to create a show—modeled on the hit Netflix series “Quarterback”—that would follow the lives of professional basketball players, according to people familiar with the situation. Higher Ground Productions, the production company of former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama, is involved in the discussions, as is the NBA. The basketball show is expected to appear on Netflix, according to some of the people. In Europe, more and more athletes are taking the step into the business world as well. If they are well prepared, have expertise at their side and are brought together with the right partners, great projects can be implemented. #sportsbusiness #athleteentrepreneur #team https://lnkd.in/eTHt_erN

🏈 Super Bowl v ⚽ World Cup - The Value of Advertising 📣... The World Cup has 13x more viewers (1.5bn v 115m) than the Super Bowl... and generates 15x more in revenue than the Super Bowl ($7.5bn v $500m) BUT… The cost of a 30 second Ad is 6x more in the Super Bowl ($7m v $1.1m) Doesn't make sense? The argument for Super Bowl ad price rests on the idea that the game's large audience is UNIQUE. It's not just the most-watched thing on the annual US TV calendar; it's the most-watched thing by a very large margin. Nine of the top 10 most-watched American TV broadcasts ever are Super Bowls... Other Insights: 1. AVG Game Time: 3.5 hours 2. AVG Ball In Play: 11 minutes 3. AVG 'Play' time: 4 seconds Go 49ers... #superbowl #football #insights #nfl #soccer #whyiwillnotbewatching

የመጀመሪያው የ TV Ad  The-first-ever-TV-#Ad The first TV ad in the United States aired on July 1, 1941, during a Brooklyn Dodgers baseball game on NBC. It was a 10-second commercial for Bulova Watch Company. The ad showed a Bulova watch over a map of the U.S. with a voice saying, "America runs on Bulova time." This was the start of using TV for advertising, reaching many people and changing how ads were done.

Day 63 - Once the Marvel Entertainment X Verizon campaign for #AgentsOfShield was wrapped up, I had proven that I was ready to #produce #ads with "varsity team" (there was even talk of making me a #SeniorProducer). Monica Stein and Charlie Shipman decided to assign me to the National Football League (NFL) X Verizon campaign, which was the biggest #cobranded #campaign that #Verizon ran all year. I could not have been more excited. I was going to work with a group of #Alist #football players from the NFL Players Association to make ads that would appear during the airing of weekly games to promote #NFLMobile The commercials included spots like - https://lnkd.in/ejcy4M4P and https://lnkd.in/e83nDciw The hardest part about making these ads was coordinating the schedules for the #NFL players who starred in them like #DrewBrees and #JJWatt (seen the ads in the links above). These men are incredibly busy due to being in such high demand and needing so much time to train to maintain the conditioning needed to perform amongst #elite #athletes We had to schedule and reschedule with multiple creative teams. This made the #budget a beast to manage. It also meant having to convince #photographers, #directors and #union #tech people to be flexible enough to get the work done. All that had to be done within the timeline we had which if I recall was only 6 weeks leading up to the start of the season. However, as you can see in the #tv spots it all worked out in the end. Have you ever worked with #celebrities or #pro #athletes? Because if you have I want to hear about it. Please tell me your stories in the comments and stay tuned for more #AdventuresInAdvertising
