Upwork: Upwork is How by Duncan Channon
- Location:
The first national campaign for Upwork, an online talent solution for professional staffing, aims to reach C-level decision makers at large and midsize businesses across the country.
Three new TV spots by Duncan Channon feature a spirited spokesperson who tours viewers through dynamic workplaces that are more flexibly staffed than they appear at first glance. As the spokesperson draws office blinds, opens file cabinets and adjusts art, he opens portals that reveal the full range of talent hard at work beyond the walls of the office. The visual effect conveys the seamless bridge Upwork enables between traditional teams and highly-skilled independent talent who create big things together. With the campaign, Upwork aims to demonstrate how technology is creating better ways for companies to find in-demand talent regardless of their location.
