We embraced this challenge by creating a striking key visual using raw close-ups of real and diverse people – emphasising the message that everyone is susceptible to sun damage.

Akuna Vista
3D & CGI / Campaigns / Digital & Social / Government / Property / VideoThe incredibly strategic launch for the first stage of a ten-year property project.Akuna Vista is the new master-planned community in North West Sydney by developer Defence Housing Australia (DHA). With acres to sell, it was essential to build a brand awareness that would seamlessly transition into leads and conversions. Therefore, we meticulously scheduled a two-part, ten-week campaign blitz that firstly established Akuna Vista in the market, then created urgency around its Stage 1 sales launch. The strategy behind this campaign began by defining our target audience, using tools such as Roy Morgan to understand their habits and aspirations. We were able to determine which advertising mediums, both on and offline, would be the most engaging and effective for reaching this audience during their daily lives. With a highly tactical media plan in place, we ensured nobody in our target market missed the arrival of Akuna Vista Schofields.
Bubze (Brand)
Branding / Digital & Social / VideoGiving birth to the branding and launch strategy for a new online baby accessories store.Mumpreneur Darragh Heard (co-owner of Heard Agency) was ready to launch Bubze.com.au, an online boutique for baby accessories. In an incredibly competitive market place heavily driven by Instagram small business success stories, we needed to develop a brand identity with cut-through and longevity, as well as ongoing integrated marketing strategies that would build brand awareness and drive sales.The Bubze brand specialises in quality-made and competitively priced products that are also highly stylish. Our target audience was socially-conscious parents who spend their spare time following fashion blogs and social media. We veered well away from expected ‘cutesy’ or gender-conscious branding, for something that would appeal to those who favour the organic, ethical, individual and elegant – leveraging an on-trend pastel colour palette, geometric patterns, and a handwritten logotype.
