天美棋牌> The ad/music video from my childhood that stays with me鈥

- as a teenager when music clips were just taking off, I remember seeing this and being blown away with how powerful emotions can be created with a great track, stunning filmmaking, brilliant casting. The love story and passion was a teenagers dream and got me interested in the power of strong storytelling and craft. We call this content now, but it鈥檚 still so powerful.

天美棋牌> The ad/music video/game/web platform that made me want to get into the industry鈥

I just loved this ad, it really made get how by entertaining you can sell lots of product. So fun, so silly and entertaining. Escapism at its best.


天美棋牌> The creative work (film/album/game/ad/album/book/poem etc) that I keep revisiting鈥

has been copied over and over again by so many brands over the years. Still love it and as a young man living in London I fell in love with Australia then. 

Brilliantly single minded and a proper long term campaign.

天美棋牌> My first professional project鈥

I think it was some terrible trade ad for a drain company. Took me a while to get good at my trade, I鈥檝e learnt a lot over the years.

, I love all the work done as part of the Dove Real Beauty campaign, as a father with a daughter we need brands to take ownership of these issues.


天美棋牌> The creative project that changed my career鈥

I worked for Beam Suntory for over 16 years, locally and globally. We re-launched Canadian Club in Australia and came up with a super simple idea 鈥淥ver Beer?鈥, we went beyond advertising and re-packaged the product and got it on tap in bars and pubs and behaved like a beer. It continues to be the fastest growing spirit brand in Australia.

We no longer have the account, but credit to the client Trent Chapman who has kept the idea for over 1o years. .With the success of this campaign I learnt what it really takes to re-launch a brand and drive success over the long term, it takes incredible discipline, creativity and consistency.

天美棋牌> The work that I鈥檓 proudest of鈥

Early on at the start of the agency we made a great spot for MTV, it was one of the most fun shoots I have been on. Budgie Smuggler | The Sweet Shop | MTV Networks Australia | D&AD Awards 2007 Pencil Winner | Direction | D&AD.

Also we have done two other impactful campaigns for

天美棋牌> The recent project I was involved in that excited me the most鈥

I have been lucky to work with an Aboriginal community who live in the northern territory and help them develop a business called . I have learnt so much about their community, how they approach solving problems and some of the struggles they face. But above all I鈥檓 inspired by how they want to change the course of their future with this business.
