Whatever fits the brief. What's also nice is we're not trying to step on the toes of their ad agencies or their PR agencies who are coming up with the brilliant creative that the talent needs to be in or the brilliant creative that I need to plug in a piece of music to or the amazing creative that an athlete wants to tie themselves to.
