Ridiculously Easy Email on 3

Here's our latest campaign for 3 Email. We were asked to create standard DR ads, a product demo and a DR email. Wish we could have done something with a stronger idea for this, but for the task at hand it turned out surprisingly cute and crafty. Was nice to write a script for a change too!

Our blog is a Campaign star.

Well, that's an overstatement. But we did get a rather flattering review from none other than VCCP's Darren Bailes. I swear we didn't pay him.

Run Cactus Kid Run!

One of the biggest jobs we've done so far has to be the online campaign for Oasis' Run Cactus Kid Run. This was a MASSIVE job with tons of little things all going on all over the web - including a page where users can vote for a Happy, Sad or Twist end to the story, a Find Cactus Kid Google MashUp site, a anti-Cactus Kid campaign website, a Flickr, Myspace, Youtube page... even some fake business sites. Whew!

Customise your Mini

Cool, one of our Mini ads has just been posted on Banner blog.

Nokia Supernova

We did this quick turnaround microsite for the Nokia 7310 Sapphire (click the "What colour are you feeling today" icon because there's no deep link directly to the microsite). The phone's main feature is its interchangeable coloured covers, which is kind of hilariously old school. 

Mini Smile

And here's a recent Mini ad we did for the new Mini Clubman. Because a key feature of the car is obviously ridiculous driver happiness. We didn't get a free car for all our hard work, but made an award winning ad and got to go on our first shoot too. Lisa also somehow managed to sweet talk her way into a second career as a precision driver. Seriously.

3 Skypephone

Here's a couple VERY simple illustrated ads we did for the 3 Skypephone.

Everyone is loved on 3

Did you know that 'Pay As You Goers' get fair treatment on 3? Well they do.  

Each ad in this campaign demonstrated how well 3 treat their PAYG customers by catering messages to various audiences online. This one about N00bs and L33ts ran on a gaming site, thus the gaming lingo. Other executions included "Wags are as important as Footballers" which ran on girlie sites, and "Roadies are as important as Rockstars" for music sites.

Don't have a link for all these at the moment sadly. Trust me though, you'd love them. 

Mini R55 Launch

Probably our very first ad we did at glue. We contributed this execution in a campaign every creative here got the chance to work on. Fun times. And our first venture into the grown up D&AD annual too (tho just a nomination).

RAC Crush, Stretch, and Crash

Here's a few sassy ads for RAC Car Insurance. Sadly these example are out of context on bannerblog. This one is supposed to appear as a typical "pop up" which collapses into an MPU when the user inevitably closes it. In this one your natural cursor movements cause the car to crash into the sides of the skyscraper. 

Virgin Money Savvy

One from the vaults. This was one of our very first briefs at glue. The ads were based on a TV campaign by Rainey Kelly. Didn't love the ATL stuff to be honest, but our online ads scored us a 2007 Campaign Digital Award and a bottle of champagne so we ain't complaining.

Camper Imagination Walks

Here's an ad campaign we worked on, adapting a concept from Madre Buenos Aires for the web. Not a huge amount of creative input on this one as it was just adapting the ATL work, but fun none the less. (There was a website too, but the link is dead now sadly!).

How we got a job.

Here's our desperate student attempt at getting our first job in advertising. Showed it to Seb before he hired us on at glue, so perhaps it actually worked?
