MINORITY REPORT: CREATING A PRINT CAMPAIGN FOR THE ASIAN AMERICAN DEMOGRAPHIC
By Photo District News


It's not often that a multicultural agency gets to create something original for a print campaign.

But as the creatives interviewed for the story note, successful ads appealing to African-Americans or the Latino market demand original and intriguing executions, or no amount of research and strategic marketing will work. The best multicultural ads reflect an awareness of the interests, aspirations and culture of their target audience.
