THE OBJECTIVE
Karen David is positioned as a prominent actress and music artist who successfully transitioned from Canadian and British projects to American film and television. Through strategic and thoughtful press opportunities, we engaged the media, leveraging Karen's notable roles, including her standout performance in the Universal Pictures and Universal Pictures Home Entertainment motion picture, The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior. Our spotlight on Karen as the leading lady in the SK2 cast emphasized the significance of representation in the Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) community.
THE SOLUTION
Karen David made her debut in the prequel of the popular film franchise, The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior. SNA collaborated with Universal Pictures and Universal Pictures Home Entertainment's PR team to strategically execute a film publicity campaign. We secured numerous appearances, interviews, and media placements for Karen leading up to the film's release.
Following her success in The Scorpion King 2, Karen landed a role in Judd Apatow's Funny People, and SNA was there to coordinate the media outreach for her ahead of the film's release and the Los Angeles premiere. We also handled Karen's publicity interviews and media placements for her starring role in the television series TOUCH on FOX, as well as her rendition of Bob Marley's "Three Little Birds" for the same series. Our efforts aimed to showcase Karen David's talent and expand her presence in the entertainment industry.
