Also working on the project is award-winning director Daniel Kleinman, most well known for his work designing title sequences for James Bond films.
Brands Director for Direct Line Group, Kerry Chilvers says, ”We’re always looking for innovative ways to reach new audiences, and showcase just how good we are at fixing customer problems. Our customer service teams are our front-line fixers, so it is fantastic to put the spotlight on them in this campaign. TV has been hugely successful for us in driving both awareness and consideration, and with this partnership with Channel 4 we’re looking to take things up another gear. “
