Urban Brew Studios receives nomination for ‘Best International Show’ at the 11th annual National Reality TV Awards 2022

Top film and TV production is not just a Hollywood thing, it is also a proudly African thing, with an abundance of well-produced popular TV shows coming from our continent. One of these reality TV shows receiving international recognition is Young, Famous & African, produced by Urban Brew Studios (UBS). The show has been nominated for the 11th annual National Reality TV Awards 2022 taking place in London on 28 July 2022.

The series, Young, Famous & African is focused on building careers, looking for love, and rekindling old flames of famous media personalities from South Africa, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Uganda and Tanzania. The show premiered on Netflix in March 2022 and aired world-wide in 190 countries. The show was in the top ten Netflix Most Watched and in several territories ranked number one.

“To receive this nomination for the best international show at the National Reality TV Awards is a huge step forward to place us in the global stage,” says Calvin Sefala, Chief Executive Officer at UBS. “It is a very proud moment for us to represent the African film and TV production sector and is a reflection of the capability and creativity of the people in Africa working in film and TV. Our sector deserves the international recognition, and nominations and awards such as this will get us there.”

The National Reality TV Awards is one of the most prestigious awards that recognises the quality and popularity of reality TV shows globally. The NRTV Academy has re-defined how reality TV is perceived worldwide by introducing definitions of the different genres that make up this genre.

Toyota named in Top 10 of Africa’s most admired brands for second year

Toyota has been named as one of Africa’s most admired brands by Brand Africa, an intergenerational movement established in 2010 to inspire a brand-led African renaissance to drive Africa’s competitiveness, connect Africa and create a positive image of the continent.

Brand Africa’s annual report and analysis of brands’ standing in Africa, Brand Africa 100™, ranks the most admired brands on the continent and is based on a pan-African survey across more than 25 countries that account for over 80% of Africa’s population and GDP.

Every year, in partnership with Kantar, the globally respected consumer knowledge and information company and Geopoll, the leading mobile based surveying platform with a database of over 250 million respondents in Africa, it independently surveys, analyses and ranks brands in Africa.

In the latest report, Brand Africa 100™ 2022, Toyota was ranked 8th on The Top 100 Most Admired Brands in Africa list. This is an improvement on the position it achieved on the 2021 list when it made its Top 10 debut in the number 9 slot.

“Congratulations to the entire Toyota team – that’s Toyota SA as well as the brand’s dealers and other distributors throughout Africa – on this remarkable achievement,” said FCB Joburg and Hellocomputer Joburg Group MD, Joey Khuvutlu.

“It’s no mean feat to be ranked within the Top 100 in a survey which annually yields over 80 000 brand mentions and over 2 000 unique brands, let alone improve upon a ranking in the Top 10. But the Toyota team has done just that, despite its opportunities for growth being severely stunted by the COVID pandemic and lockdown,” Khuvutlu said.

FCB Joburg Executive Creative Director and a man who has worked on the brand in South Africa for 13 years, Tian van den Heever, added: “This is Toyota’s second appearance within the Top 10 – it ranked 11th on the 2020 and 2019 rankings and made its Top 10 debut last year at 9th.

ANA, WARC & LIONS announce long-term partnership to create a US and Global business practice to ‘Crack the Code of Creative Effectiveness‘

The ANA, WARC, and LIONS have announced a unique long-term research partnership to create a global framework that guides and supports brands in ‘Cracking the Code of Creative Effectiveness’. The initial goal of this project is to address both the culture of effectiveness within organizations as well as the elements of campaign effectiveness. Other fundamentals of effectiveness, aligned with the ANA Global Growth agenda’s Brand, Creativity & Media pillar, will be incorporated into the creation of the roadmap and foundation for the practice.

Using insights from the ANA, WARC & LIONS, and leveraging work from award-winning marketers over the course of the next twelve months, this partnership will work together to create a framework CMOs and brands can follow to establish a culture of both effectiveness and creative excellence leading to long term success for their businesses. The partnership hopes to leverage peer-to peer-learning, case studies, events and forums to investigate and benchmark the internal beliefs, organization structures and creative frameworks that consistently produce the highest level of creative work and effective culture.

As part of the partnership, the ANA and WARC will conduct an extensive worldwide qualitative study among CMOs to identify the elements of a culture of effectiveness and jumpstart the industry in moving towards more effective marketing. The study will build on the existing Creative Effectiveness Ladder, developed by WARC and LIONS, a framework to understand how to utilize creativity to drive specific marketing outcomes.

To kick-start the project, on-stage interviews were conducted at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity at the WARC session ‘What Does it Take to Build a Culture of Creative Effectiveness’ moderated by Harjot Singh, Global Chief Strategy Officer, McCann Worldgroup with McDonald’s Joan Colletta, Global Brand Marketing and Global Creative Effectiveness Program Lead and Qaiser Bachani, Global Head of Digital COE and Europe Consumer Experience Lead of Mondelēz International.

Further insights will be presented at the ANA Masters of Marketing conference 25-28 October 2022.
