Good things come in threes 👑 👑 👑

We’re incredibly proud to have a triplet of finalists in the AADC Awards this week for our work with Cure4 Cystic Fibrosis Foundation , SA Country Fire Service and South Australia Police , along with another handful of nominations for our incredible production partners.

A massive thank you to everyone involved in bringing these projects to life and for the good they are doing in the community. Fingers crossed for Thursday night 🤞

Our design for the re-developed Payneham Memorial Swimming Centre is already making a splash with the official opening over the weekend.

We were particularly inspired by the grid-like architectural pattern over the main pool, the geometric shapes on the walls and the reflections of light over the water.

Creating a new brand and launch video for a place that has such a history of fun was a true delight, and we can’t wait to take our kids!

Congratulations and thank you for having us on board Allison Kane and the team at City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters.

It’s just over a month until our favourite day on the calendar… and no, it’s not the awards show, although that’s good too!

The AADC Talks has become a way for many of us to learn more about our industry and each other.

We discover what’s happening locally and nationally across different strategic and creative fields, while bonding with our own team, rubbing shoulders with competitors (who we secretly love), connecting with clients and meeting new faces.

This event is the brainchild of our MD, Joe Godsell, and we couldn’t be prouder to support it year after year and see the value it brings to our marketing and creative community.

Buy a ticket and come say hi to the NATION citizens.
We can’t wait to see everyone.

Thrilled to share that our client Kambala is a Finalist at the national Educate Plus Excellence Awards.

This accolade in the Marketing and Communications Campaign category recognises excellence in an integrated campaign that elevates institutional reputation, strengthens brand identity and delivers measurable impact.

We’re so proud to have created ‘A Global Sisterhood’ alongside the school’s highly collaborative marketing team, who are leading the way in an all-girls education.

Congratulations to the official Mini-ster for Little Library, Eve Godsell, for a fabulous job leading the launch event on Friday.

At just 10 years old, her presence at the podium and position on the run sheet said everything it needed to say: Little Library is a place made just for kids.

She delivered an exceptional opening address to an audience of fellow children (and a few grown ups), before inviting her assistant, Premier Peter Malinauskas, to join her in the ribbon cutting.

We loved working collaboratively with Callie Rose Communications and State Library of South Australia to bring this fun little launch idea to life across multiple touchpoints.

Keen to check it out? Little Library is now open to the public and you'll find it inside the State Library on North Terrace.

Studying abroad isn’t just about the foodie adventures or hostel shenanigans; it can be the start of global friendships, networks, degrees and careers.

To increase applications for the New Colombo Plan, a program supported by the Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade enabling university study in Asia, we wanted to inspire students to take their first step on an exciting lifelong journey.

Our flexible campaign messaging supported recruitment across socials, campuses and a dedicated program microsite. So whether you’re looking to make new friends, learn a language, or get your foot in the door in a brand new place, you can start something big with the New Colombo Plan.

A big shed deserves a big introduction.

Our latest campaign with Stratco makes a big song and dance about their new Stratco Big Sheds by quite literally playing a big song – minus the dance.

In collaboration with the amazing team at Passel Media and another one of our incredible clients in Adelaide Youth Orchestras, we brought over 45 of the state’s most talented young musicians up to the Flinders Ranges to play an iconic piece of music in a real Stratco Big Shed.

We had an absolute blast creating the cinematic TVC and want to give a massive thanks to everyone involved for their dedication and technical ingenuity in bringing it to life for real.

Did you catch us on Gruen?

With a brief to shame slow walkers, we leant on the deadbeat dad trope to disgrace blokes who are gone too long and end up losing what matters most.

Two very different pitches split the panel to send us home with one half of a trophy. Cheers for the friendly competition Fuller and big thanks to Alexander Robertson, Oliver Prenton, Alice McKenzie, Dallas Rodgers, Andrew Gibbon and Jamie Shawyer as well as RMT Management and the rest of the crew.

Stoked to have been invited back on Gruen. Tune in tonight to see our ad on The Pitch, which is a little less controversial than last time. We think…

Grim’s baaaaaaack.

And this time he’s focusing on pedestrians too.

We’ve extended our successful ‘Stop flirting with death’ distractions campaign with a few new elements, thanks to the Government Advertising and Insights Hub at Department of the Premier and Cabinet, and South Australia Police.

Together, we’re reminding both motorists and pedestrians to be aware of each other on the road and not be distracted by their phones, because the consequences are literally grim.

Both audiences are targeted across TV, radio, outdoor, ambient, digital and social channels to encourage them to take the message seriously and remember that ‘Phones and pedestrians don’t mix.’
