ABSOLUT SWOP SHOP: MIX UP YOUR DRINK & MIX UP YOUR OUTFIT. This is a social platform to launch Absolut’s new diversity bottle during London Fashion Week...

PROBLEM: LFW can be seen as elitist and ‘fast fashion’ can be seen as a serious environmental problem (landfill)…and in the age of austerity Gen Z can’t afford to refresh their wardrobe as often as they would like.

SOLUTION: ABSOLUT SWOP SHOP….It doesn’t cost the Earth for a new outfit…In just one party, there’s thousands of creative outfit combinations…What better way to show unity than to MIX UP your outfit…The SWOP SHOP platform also allows people to swap clothes online too, creating millions of new outfits for free.

McLaren F1 DRIVER VS DRIVER GP brings the worlds of F1 and the Pro Golf Tour together in a Top Gear inspired challenge. In a pimped-up McLaren golf cart, Lando Norris F1 driver tries to set the fastest lap time whilst trying to avoid a barrage of golf balls from Tommy Fleetwood. For each time they hit the cart there’s a 5 seconds time penalty. Tommy then swaps his Driver for the driving seat… Crofty the legendary voice of F1 is our commentator.

KIA Australian Open (AO) sponsorship

ACES FOR OCEANS is a TikTok/Insta AR game that enables tennis fans to use the accelerometer in their phones to serve an ace with a little coaching from Nadal.

What makes this game so cool is that the players’ actions in the game have an ‘ace’ impact in the real world. With every ace served, KIA turn ocean plastics into Rafa branded, recycled tennis gear, for disadvantaged tennis players.

During the AO Championship - for every Ace Nadal serves KIA will recycle 100 tonnes of ocean plastic, turning it into Rafa recycled tennis gear…

There’s Also a Nadal ‘Movement that inspires’ brand film

McDONALD’S FRY-FUTBOL 'REALTIME SOCIAL'

FRY-FUTBOL was Facebook’s most successful social campaign EVER! With over 500 MILLION likes globally in 38 markets. A ‘realtime social’ campaign celebrating McDonald’s global sponsorship of the FIFA World Cup, in which we reenacted all of the goals from every game in an amusing way providing people with tomorrow’s social currency - we would watch the live game, write a script and shoot through the night ‘REAL TIME SOCIAL’. The finished films would appear in 20 million football fans’ Twitter and Facebook feeds the next morning sparking conversation all over the world about last night’s game. The campaign was huge hit with 64 executions covering all 64 matches!

Hamptons Brand campaign 2023 - shot from the POV of an excitable toddler, this film is about the emotions we all feel, whether we are young or old, when we see the home of our dreams for the first time. HAMPTONS - MOVING PEOPLE SINCE 1869

TRAVEL YOURSELF INTERESTING

This is a campaign that I co-wrote and directed. Working closely with Youtube and Facebook we developed executions that were specific to certain times of day, 'Friday night surfers' for instance. This is a tongue in cheek dig at the digital age, mocking people for experiencing things via Youtube and Facebook instead of 'Traveling Themselves Interesting'. 

FILM 1) Youtube mocking 'Friday night surfers'.

FILM 2) Facebook newsfeed 'Like button mocking'.

FILM 3) Youtube, 'music searches' execution.

FILM 4) Mocking 'lame status updates' Facebook.

FILM 5) Youtube mocking 'late night surfers'

ROLL LIKE RYAN

This is not just any Christmas campaign….At Grey London I looked after M&S and one of the highlights was the big budget (£3 Million) 360 celeb Christmas campaign 10 x TVC spots including the 90 second launch film, where we created a huge experiential M&S Christmas Market, which cleverly combined the M&S signature ‘slow mo’ food porn’ with live action, thousands of real people and few celebs…

Social is a huge channel for M&S, particularly with their Celeb Tasting Table but we also allowed the public to interact with the famous ‘food porn’ - pouring the gravy over the turkey, lighting the Christmas pud, adding a dollop of cream to a mince pie or even popping the cork on the Prosecco all in mouthwatering slow mo’…(your reward for sharing/interacting was a money off voucher).

Hundreds of thousands of shares, likes and voucher downloads put M&S firmly back on top of the Christmas food charts - their most successful campaign ever. This is Not Just Food is now part of British culture (when said in a sexy, sultry, ‘food porn’ voice of course :)

BE PART OF THE STORY 

I wrote and directed these spots with Paul Weiland's Film Company including the 'Be Part Of The Story' brand positioning…Mr Tiddles wasn’t the easiest of creatures to direct (eek).

BBH TV spot spot directed by Peter Cattaneo where fans could win a contract with their Premiership Club. 

This site complimented the 'SLAG OF ALL SNACKS' campaign and had millions of hits and was the first interactive video execution done by a brand.

When you loaded up the site, loads of other amusing popups would would appear - like Slave2Noodle.com, or PotSwapping.com (like a porn site... apparently). The Hysterical Girlfriend Game was one of these pages….

As well as 2 Cannes Gold Lions, this also recently won a Campaign Best, Campaign Magazine Best Digital Ad of the Decade, Campaign Best FMCG campaign, One Show Silver, London International Award Gold, Creative Showcase Gold etc…

THE PROBLEM:

The government bill to reduce carbon emissions does not include shipping & aviation, which are the two biggest contributors to climate change….(ohh and we haven’t got any budget).

THE SOLUTION: 

If we get a 100,000 people to sign our online petition, they have to legally debate it in parliament…We got over a million people to sign it, we then printed all of the signatures onto a huge piece of paper, made it into a paper boat & sailed it down the Thames to the Houses of Parliament, gaining huge amounts of free PR - it made all of the major news channels resulting in even more signatures & a change in policy by the government.

THE HONEYMOON THAT NEVER ENDS

At Grey London I was instrumental in writing the strategy HELPING THE BIGGEST CIGARETTE COMPANY IN THE WORLD GIVE UP SMOKING… Moving people on to healthier alternatives like IQOS and vapes saves millions of lives. Along with the print ads and experiential events HOLD MY LIGHT was a big social activation which encourages people to give up with a little help from their friends…

Whilst at BBDO I was CD on Mars Foods and P&G. Here’s a couple of award winners…

QUALITY TIME 

I launched the new Peugeot 508 on TV and online with the 'Quality Time thought.' It was Peugeot's first luxury car, which was aimed at time poor business people - even the ad campaign was designed to save them time….
