The campaign will roll out across TV, cinema, digital, social, out-of-home, radio and digital audio.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The campaign, via AMOK Creative, brings LiSTNR\u2019s personality to life through inventive, playful creative, personifying the unique audio tastes of Australians via visually arresting \u201csinging ears\u201d. The unique tastes of each ear reflect the diversity of Australian listeners, from RnB loving commuters to footy-enthusiastic remote workers, bringing a visual representation to the platform\u2019s rich, locally curated audio content and celebrating the uniquely personal experience of listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The singing ears were crafted locally through a unique blend of practical and visual effects. Physical, oversized silicone ears were created and puppeteered in rhythm with the music, then seamlessly integrated into the final scene. The films were created in collaboration with Hooves and Electric Sheep Music, while all other campaign assets were developed in-house at SCA.<br><br>The campaign kicks off on January 28th running in bursts for the remainder of the financial year and beyond. The integrated campaign will run nationally across free to air, BVOD and subscription TV, Hoyts cinemas, YouTube, TikTok, Meta, Hit, Triple M and LiSTNR. In Sydney and Melbourne it will run on large and small format OOH and transit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Naomi Gorringe<\/strong>, SCA\u2019s Head of Marketing said: \u201cIn a media landscape flush with advertising messages, this campaign is designed to grab peoples\u2019 attention and entertain them. By turning the intimate act of listening into something visible, unexpected and unmistakably LiSTNR, we\u2019re showing how deeply we understand our audience and their tastes. Marketers now know \u2018the extraordinary cost of dull\u2019, so we set out to create something far from it \u2013 it\u2019s bold, memorable, and entirely ownable, exactly the kind of creativity that positions LiSTNR as Australia\u2019s leading audio brand.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Michael Dawson<\/strong>, Creative Director at AMOK Creative added: \u2018Given there are some global players in this category, standing out was non-negotiable. We set out to create a campaign that was bold, memorable, ownable\u2026and a little bit weird. We found some very willing production partners in Hooves and Electric Sheep, and had a lot of fun bringing the concept to life.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Stephen Haddad<\/strong>, SCA\u2019s Chief Operating Officer said: \u201cLiSTNR is Australia\u2019s leading audio brand because we truly understand what Australians love to listen to.
