Julian’s Lynx ‘Snow’ campaign with BBH London has been selected to be featured in the 2010 Creative Review Annual. Anyone who knows their butt from their boob will know that this is massive news.  We’re very proud of him.

This year I was roving reporter for Australian INfront at Semi Permanent 2010. It was my first sp and I tweeted the event from @aust_infront’s account.  You can see my roundup on the INfront site, but I really wanted to share a film by the last speaker, David Michod.  I personally think his talk was the least glamourous but most inspiring.  The crux of what he had to share was the success happens incrementally, while you’re going merrily along living your life.  There are no epiphanies, no driving passions, just a fear of public embarrassment which makes us want to do good work.  Crossbow was the short which changed things for David.  I hope you like it.

Julian was recently flown with his producer, Adam, to Queensland to shoot one of Australia’s only elephant actors.  He lives right near Australia Zoo.  Here are the shots.  It was Julian’s dream to photograph an elephant so big thanks to Droga 5 for making it happen.

You will have seen this everywhere if you live in Sydney.  In fact I went past a billboard outside central the other day which had Chris’s Bonds work on one panel and Julian’s Nova piece on the other.  We loved this concept from Three Drunk Monkeys when we saw it and Julian (and of course Kathy McKinnon) did such a great job of realising the vision.  Thanks of course as well to Adam, the quietest, most easy going producer we have ever worked with.

Look outside your window to see Chris’s new Bonds campaign.  It’s everywhere.  Or if you’re too lazy, just scroll down.

Chris (very) recently shot this campaign for Tooheys New.  Anyone who has a sense of humour as stupid and inane as we do with recognise that they’re in the tradition of LOL Graphs. But this one involved dragging a life sized column graph made of set-build and beer.  This shot was at Palmy.

Chris is the only person EVER to have been allowed to shoot up there.  You can read the full interview about the shoot here on Pedestrian. And you can see the behind the scenes video here.
