NFL Apparel: Welcome to the Ball House



NFL Apparel "Weight Room"
Move over Real World. In a new campaign for NFL Apparel, New York's Arnell Group introduces The House of Team Apparel, a reality TV send up in which 11 NFL stars share a house for the season. Directed by @radical.media's Steve Miller, the effort features several installments of action from the rambunctious household as we watch the guys move in, choose up sides for touch football and settle their differences in the weight room.


Wieden's Montague Named ECD at JWT/N.Y.

Ty Montague, former co-executive creative director at Wieden + Kennedy/N.Y., will take over the lead creative role at J. Walter Thompson/N.Y., effective Jan. 1, the agency officially announced today. Montague will serve as EVP-chief creative officer and co-president, alongside current president Rosemarie Ryan, of JWT's flagship office. Montague replaces former CCO Mike Campbell, who left the agency in January. ECD Eric Steinhauser and deputy ECD Nat Whitten will continue in their current roles.

Meanwhile, associate creative director Kevin Proudfoot has been promoted to co-exective creative director, alongside Todd Waterbury, at Wieden + Kennedy/N.Y.
