An AI voiceover was used in the case study film. This was created by the agency, using the voice of an agency employee. AI was also used to upscale the quality of the video interview footage. |

| Notes: |
Ladies Gaelic Football has a visibility problem, lacking the profile and media coverage of the men’s game. Lidl Ireland, the sport’s main sponsor, created the ‘Highlights Hijack’ to give the game the audience it truly deserves. For one month, Lidl Ireland hijacked a variety of media channels - from their own TVC spots to cinema and social media - interrupting them with incredible LGFA highlights to bring this sporting greatness to a whole new audience, in a whole new way. |
