Exciting to see our work with NRMA Insurance recognised in The Australian's #growthagenda interview with Matthew Michael and Michelle Klein. This partnership is more than just Marketing; in the words of Danielle Long "The repositioning work went beyond marketing activity with the business overhauling everything from logo and website design to insurance policy terms, products, vehicles, grassroots programs and sponsorships." https://lnkd.in/gCYnV-gw

NEW WORK / NSFW ALERT: Special Broadcasting Service (SBS) Australia has been pushing the limits of what’s shown on TV for over 50 years. To bring their new brand platform ‘We Go There’ to life, we made an ad so bold, it can’t be watched anywhere. Except on SBS. See the ad here: https://lnkd.in/gyMjmEkQ Viewer discretion advised. Contains nudity. Directed by the incredible Damien Shatford at The Sweetshop, edited by ARC, sound by MassiveMusic. *If you're not in Australia, you can’t watch the ad without a VPN. You could move to Aus though?
