The car company sponsored an Agents of SHIELD web series last year, called Double Agent, which was nominated for a Producers Guild award for outstanding digital series, along with Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee.

One level of engagement works through the consistently creative marketing for the series, and now the Agents of SHIELD : Academy web series is doing exactly that.īeing an agent isn’t as easy as it looks. This kind of engagement appears to be central to the story telling from both Joss and Jed Whedon - aside from the engaging story telling itself - who co-created the series with Jed’s wife Maurissa Tancharoen.
