Vodafone | Interstellar Rescue

Broadband, but not as we know it.

A Sci-Fi thriller that shows the disastrous consequences of crap broadband.

We also leaked a fake movie trailer on Framestore’s social channels, causing lots of confusion among movie fans.

Screwfix | Dedicated Fans

Who doesn’t love the Screwfix catalogue?

A series of football sponsorship idents starring a cast of characters who love the beautiful game almost as much as they love their Screwfix catalogue.

All shot using real Screwfix customers (which obviously made everything much easier).

Home Office | See Yourself

Redefining abuse.

Home Office research found that abuse within some teen relationships had become normalised; Some kids didn’t consider what they were doing, or what they were going through to be anything other than normal, everyday behaviour.

Our hard hitting campaign showed teenagers exactly what abuse looks like, and asked them if they recognise themselves in what they see.

The campaign started a national debate across every media channel with everyone from the Prime Minister to ITV’s Loose Women talking about it.

HM Government | Say You Served

The Office for Veterans’ Affairs

There are 1.8 million people in the UK who have served in the armed forces, but many have never told their GP. As a result, they may be missing out on specialist help and support.

That’s why we launched the 'Say You Served' campaign - a clear, simple way to encourage veterans to share their military background with their GP and get the treatment they deserve.

Visit Britain | #OMGB

Great Britain. Home of Amazing Moments

This global, social-first campaign helped Visit Britain attract a record-breaking number of international visitors to the UK.

We invited influencers from around the world to share their unforgettable #OMGB moments, then amplified their content across the entire campaign.

The hashtag soon took off, and today, there are over 230,000 #OMGB posts on Instagram alone.

Pepsi | It's Movie Time!

Nothing comes between Pepsi and a movie

Pepsi wanted to become an integral part of the movie-watching experience. To do that, we created a bold, cinematic platform to make people think movies, think Pepsi.

TV ads showed iconic movie moments disrupted by real-life annoyances, while in cinemas, we surprised audiences by turning the typical "turn off your phone" reminder into a fake movie trailer - abruptly interrupted by a phone ringing in the theatre.

Since launching the ‘Movie Time’ platform, Pepsi has extended the campaign across Europe, interrupting even more movie moments.

British Airways | People & Places

Made during lockdown with no chance of a shoot and a budget tighter than a super tight pair of budgie smugglers.

But by trawling through endless hours of found footage we created a campaign inviting the world to take off again to all the people & places we love.

Unfortunately Covid killed the print ads :(

Home Office | Pick it up

These interactive digital ads carried a simple truth that we needed to get out there. Carry a knife, and you’re more likely to get stabbed.

We also knew one of the only things teenage boys care about is upsetting mum. So another set of digital ads featured the voice of a real mum telling her harrowing story.

Land Rover | England's Real Passion

Taking the Piss

Land Rover are sponsors of rugby at a grassroots level. So in order to stand out from O2’s high-profile sponsorship of the England squad, we created an online film starring rugby star Josh Lewsey that generated plenty of controversy. 

The film generated so much buzz it was broadcast in full on BBC’s Football Focus, prompting a two-minute debate, and later aired on Sky Sports’ Soccer AM, earning lots of free national airtime.
