The Gold and Black. Pride of the Amakhosi Nation. A symbol that means so much to so many. As a long-term partner of the Chiefs and their fans, on and off the field, Toyota has connected every player in this family of 40 000+ at stadiums across the country. And now we are connecting every story they have to share. Collecting their messages on a one-of-a-kind Quantum. And capturing what the Glamour Boys mean to them, in a 3-part docu-series. This is Ep1: The Future.

This is a story about water. And the basic human right to access it. It took us all the way to Matatiele in the Eastern Cape to capture a celebration of the power it has to awaken a force in all of us. Thanks to our bold clients at Glenfiddich for their commitment to inspiring progress, celebrating the undeniable power each of us has to make real change, and entrusting us to share this chapter with the world - projects like these transcend what we do.

In 2023, we needed to connect The Toyota Gaming Engine with a broader audience beyond hardcore gamers, all while promoting Toyota's Gazoo Racing lineup.

Our solution? TTGE's grandest virtual racing tournament of the year, the GT Challenge, promoted with the launch of Survive to Drive - a mocku-series inspired by Netflix's Drive to Survive featuring some of SA's favourite gamers, comedians, and sports stars in the roles of their racing alter egos, fighting for the no. 1 spot in an exhibition match ahead of the grand finale for the TTGE contestants LIVE at Comic-Con.

Snaquettes are fully on board with this trend of bite-size living. Micro-resets, doing something small or for a short period of time during the course of your day, is fast becoming the way of the modern worker.

Odd Ball is a Whisky and Peanut Butter Flavoured Liqueur. Niche, right? To launch this brand’s identity and its tone on social media, we created content to appeal to potential fans of Odd Ball (who knows who they are). And the best approach, according to us, was to do what no alcohol brand was doing. Stand for something that no other alcohol brand stands for…Meaningless Entertainment.

Introducing the ultimate social media presence for the people out there in search of nothing in particular. And for a niche brand we have started gathering quite a niche following.
