The Queen’s Gambit

Clio Winner: Best Teaser Trailer

The Queen’s Gambit was one of my first major campaigns at Netflix.

This series was impeccably made, and we knew early on that we needed equally beautiful and prestigious material to support and promote the show.

The Campaign

It’s hard to believe now, but early on many Netflix partners dismissed the series as too “niche” to warrant a Marketing Campaign. A period drama about a female chess player? No one will watch that.

But a few of us knew that The Queen’s Gambit was something really special.

We advocated for, and produced a cost-effective shoot in Berlin with Anya Taylor-Joy, including poster material, social content, cast and crew interviews, and a gorgeous fashion shoot.

The material we collected was not only used for our main marketing campaign of the series, but also for an extensive Awards campaign.

The Queen’s Gambit became a worldwide phenomenon, and went on to win the Emmy and Golden Globe awards for Best Limited Series.
