Description
For Ukrainian ad agencies and freelance creatives, "business-as-usual" stopped on the day that Russian forces launched their unprovoked war three weeks ago.
Now, they need your help to pierce the veil of Russian propaganda and fight for their homeland in their own way--by waging a global information war to win the hearts and minds of the world.
In this episode, we talk to three Kyiv-based creatives who are organizing this loose coalition of Ukraine's creative community:
Viktor Shkurba, Founder and Creative Director of [isdgroup]
Oksana Gonchar, Creative Group Head at [isdgroup]
Andrii Mishchenko, Kyiv-based freelance creative strategist
They discuss how the war has disrupted their lives and their agency's future, how they're fighting back against Russian disinformation, and the imperative for creatives around the world to get involved.
