THE ASK

ESPN needed a fresh campaign to distinguish their Fantasy Football platform in a humorous way from their competitors in anticipation of the NFL season. 

Viewpoint collaborated with the ESPN internal creative team on executing a creative approach that would stand out in a crowded marketplace, keeping broadcast and digital channels top of mind in both execution and output. 

THE SOLUTION

Two core ideas grounded the creative: 

1. ESPN Fantasy Football is much better and more fun than other “fantasies” and role-playing games out there. 

2. Bad fantasy sports behavior; foolish mistakes & faux pas that the typical fantasy sports participant can relate to.
