Born Licensing launches brand new 30-minute Character Showcase exclusively for industry Creatives

Born Licensing is the advertising industry’s only talent agency for fictional stars representing the likes of Barbie, the Cookie Monster, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, RoboCop, SpongeBob SquarePants, Snoopy, and thousands more. This gives us special access to a very exclusive and notoriously hard-to-reach circle of pop culture icons.

To celebrate the launch of our Call My Agent ad campaign, for a limited time only, Born Licensing is offering a free 30-minute Character Showcase exclusively for industry Creatives who want to get a behind-the-scenes look into this exclusive world, and learn how to work with their favourite fictional characters.

WHAT TO EXPECT

As agent to the fictional stars Born Licensing has a unique insight into what it’s like to work with the crème-de-la-crème of Hollywood fictional talent.

Whilst there are some general do’s and don’ts for working with fictional talent, the expectations in terms of license fees, creative parameters, and timings, can vary hugely depending on the individual character and Rights Holder. Born Licensing’s 30-minute Character Showcase introduces Creatives to some of the most in-demand fictional stars on our roster divulging ‘behind-the-scenes’ insights about what it’s like to work with these iconic characters from pop culture. The session is aimed at inspiring Creatives to work with their favourite fictional stars, whilst giving them an understanding of how varied the creative considerations can be depending on the character.
