Mobile viewing has become the norm. 75% of worldwide viewing is on mobile, and 9 out of 10 mobile users share the videos they’ve seen with others. Mastering mobile-first content is now key to increasing a brand’s market share on social media and that brings conquering the art of vertical storytelling to the fore.

The workshop, Creativity for the Mobile-First Era, at ADFEST is one that should not be missed. The workshop is hosted by Guan Hin Tay, Creative Chairman, BBDO Singapore, and Ming Wei, Founder at Boom Digital Media and Creator of @mingweirocks, on Friday 24 March. It will provide you with an understanding of how vertical storytelling, which is estimated to take up 80% of all internet traffic, can improve business performance. It will  show you how to catch the consumer’s eye and tell engaging authentic stories and provide you with your own vertical storytelling action plan, with an emphasis on triumph in Tik Tok, the most important platform in social media right now.

Guan Hin commented, "BBDO is excited to bring this workshop to ADFEST. We had been planning before Covid started. The world of mobile-first content has changed tremendously, so we want to share and inspire the attendees to create work that fits today's mobile consumer behaviour on the many different platforms available.” 

Guan Hin Tay has worked in and led creative teams in the most creative agency worldwide networks, JWT, Grey, Saatchi & Saatchi, and Leo Burnett.
