I recently led the pitch that won de-construct the business to create a new digital strategy for Ballantine’s whiskey. Building on their recent ‘Leave an Impression’ positioning, our task was to launch the next phase of the campaign, breaking in 2009. Unfortunately I can’t say much more at this point except that if they are as brave as we’re hoping, you’ll know all about it….
Tennis has evolved. It’s faster. Stronger. Wider. Longer. It’s more demanding now than ever before – physically, mentally, and strategically. The personalities are bigger. Records are established, and then quickly superceded.

Everything Matters is much more than a consumer-facing website. It is the entire comms platform for Panasonic Europe through to 2010. And its the culmination of almost a year’s work which began with the strategy, in conjunction with Vizeum (UK) and Strawberry Frog (NL).
As a website, ‘Everything Matters’ is a content portal. It was created to be a central repository for the various brand stories that Panasonic has to tell, but has not for various reasons. The content can be filtered by the user, and of course the site is fully dynamic and modular.

Just another Jesus shirt you’re thinking, right? Not exactly… ‘Muslim Jesus’ is a reflection on the futility of religious intolerance. From afar, Jesus stares serenely at those surrounding you. But up close, Islamic crescents cluster together in abstract patterns. Anyone close enough to know this and still want to have it out, should’ve already registered on your fuckwit radar.
