Spotlighting the ultimate family vehicle for daily use and memory-making road trips, the Dad’s Precious Cargo campaign was developed by Culture Brands under the leadership of Eunique Jones Gibson, founder and chief creative officer. For the spot, the agency enlisted director Nate Edwards and production house Invisible Collective. On the partnership with Culture Brands, Edwards said, “There were no constraints on our creative vision. When you work with people who understand where you want to go and how to get there, it provides an ideal launch pad to create art that matters.”
