Chalk Talk: Super Bowl 54 Ad Review

  • CDK Global 605 5th Ave S #800 Seattle, WA 98104 (map)

It's all about us, really

Let's be honest: The Super Bowl ads are a bigger deal than the actual game. It's our chance to experience what our industry does with its biggest budgets—and largest audience—of the year. And then we have to talk about it.

We're gathering a few sharp advertising minds for a panel debate on the best, the worst, and the WTF ads from Super Bowl 54. They'll dissect why an ad worked or didn't, what's involved in creating spots of that magnitude, and a lot of "what were they thinking?"

And you, the audience, can participate throughout. Got an opinion? Share it with the group during the conversation. Want to challenge an assertion? Bring it.

Light food and drinks included!

A Tweet = $5

Everyone who tweets about an ad using #AAFChalkTalk any time this week gets $5 off their ticket! We’ll slide you a code via Twitter DM.
