Why Great Advertising Starts With Sound

In this episode of Heard Mentality, we explore why audio might be the most underused and powerful medium in advertising. Brittney Rigby sits down with three leaders in sound and creativity: Ralph Van Dijk (Founder of Eardrum), Sophie Haydon (Executive Creative Producer at Sonar Music), and Zac Pritchard (Executive Creative Director at Dentsu Creative).
