Spotify Campaign Personalized to Each Neighborhood

Spotify's 2015 ad campaign took content down to the neighborhood level, a strategy that combined the best of personalization and mass public appeal. Other finalists in the Media category of the 2016 OBIE Awards aimed at the personal level, too, from jibes at the “Walk of Shame” to giant “Orange Is the New Black” characters right in the middle of Times Square.
