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.

Nothing comes between Pepsi and a movie
Pepsi wanted to make itself an integral part of the movie-watching moment. So we created a bold, cinematic platform to make people think movies, think Pepsi.
TV ads featured movie moments being interrupted by everyday annoyances. And in cinemas we surprised audiences by turning the usual ‘turn off your phone’ message into a fake movie trailer which gets interrupted by a phone ringing at the back of the cinema.
Since we created the ‘Movie Time’ platform Pepsi have continued the campaign across Europe with even more movie moments.

The Office for Veterans’ Affairs
There are 1.8 million people in the UK who’ve served in the armed forces, but for many of them their GP’s aren’t aware of their background which means they could be misdiagnosed or not referred for specialist treatment.
We created the ‘Say You Served’ campaign to encourage veterans to let their GP know about their military background so they can get the treatment they deserve.

Great Britain. Home of Amazing Moments

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.

Made during lockdown with no chance of a shoot and budgets and timings tighter than a 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 :(

A Christmas love story
In this festive campaign romance meets data when a couple meet on the way home for Christmas. It might be the Christmas magic in the air or too much mulled wine, either way they both share an instant connection.
On social viewers could watch the love story unfold in a series of films released in the run up to Christmas. Each film also featured a different aspect of Vodafone’s packages.

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.

Taking the Piss
Land Rover are sponsors of rugby at a grassroots level. So in order to elevate their message above O2’s sponsorship of the England rugby squad we created an online film starring rugby star Josh Lewsey that generated plenty of controversy.
It ended up being shown in its entirety on the BBC’s Football Focus, followed by a two-minute debate. And Sky Sports showed the whole film on Soccer A.M providing lots of free national airtime.
