Universal Studios Hollywood Selects davidandgoliath as Advertising Agency
UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif., May 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Universal Studios Hollywood has named the independent agency davidandgoliath (dng) to create and execute an advertising and marketing campaign that will leverage its uniqueness among the plethora of attractions in the Southern California market.
Larry Kurzweil, President and Chief Operating Officer, Universal Studios Hollywood, said: "As we re-focus our marketing communications with a renewed emphasis on our core brand identity, we're excited at the prospect of working with davidandgoliath to find new, innovative approaches to delivering our message. "
dng, which won the assignment in a review with several other Southern California agencies, already works for Universal's sister theme park on the East Coast, Universal Orlando Resort in Orlando, FL. While the two share DNA, they have their own unique goals and challenges in the marketplace. The integrated USH assignment will include radio, television and print executions, and targeting families with children.
"We're very gratified to be working with Universal Studios Hollywood as their marketing partner," said dng Chairman and Chief Creative Officer David Angelo. "We understand the competitive nature of this industry, and have been successfully building the business of Universal Orlando for several years now -- but this is very different challenge. We really want to remind people in Southern California that the best entertainment is in their own backyard. We're looking forward to having the same positive impact on public perceptions and attendance figures at USH."
