Deutsch and its Steelhead arm created and produced a series of essentially "fake" ads to promote the new ABC primetime series Whiskey Cavalier. Dubbed “Spyvertising” by Deutsch, the spots feature the stars of the show, Scott Foley and Lauren Cohan.
Included in the mix is this promo, “Getaway,” depicting a couple’s seemingly perfect international romantic vacation that takes an unexpected twist.
“We love this kind of work; making provocative content for clients willing to take a shot at changing the game,” said Pete Favat, chief creative officer, Deutsch North America. “Our feeling is that people don’t hate advertising, they hate bad advertising, and maybe they’ll love Spyvertising.”
