Partnership
After Media Reach’s very successful campaigns on Radio in partnership with the UK government from the start of the Covid-19 pandemic the UK government wanted to create a Community TV Partnership.
By definition, they wished to form a partnership between the UK Government, the NHS and various television networks.
International TV network channels alongside National, faith based , community and regional specific channels would all take part in response to COVID-19/Health issues and provide key messages to BAME communities and faith group audiences in the UK.
From Day 1 the client’s objectives were clear. They wanted to achieve the following:
This project was the first of its kind.
Never has once media agency single-handedly briefed, produced and ensured the airing of a unanimous government message on more than twenty television channels with languages ranging from Hindi to Portuguese and Mandarin to Urdu.
Our intention was to ensure the seamless production and execution of all television adverts by creating strict timelines and working continuously around the clock with production teams and channels from the UK and across the world. Our aim was to ensure that each piece that was created resonated with the government’s message and was conveyed with the highest production quality and best presenters/influencers to reach the maximum number of people in their mother tongue and in a manner that would be the most effective.
Within the agreed timeline, amid lockdown restrictions, different time zones and multiple languages we were able to create a range of television adverts that were line with exactly what the UK government wanted to achieve. Some even went viral on social media!
We were able to work directly with the channels and their production teams to create a television community partnership which historically has never been achieved before Media Reach were at the helm.
All of the channels taking part united together to create a project that was viewed by millions, praised and appreciated by viewers and the wider communities across the United Kingdom and internationally which is a tremendous achievement.
