Turning cat purrs into a currency. Launching a beer brewed from waste bread. And casting a blind lead actor in a Guinness ad that’s about watching football…
They’re some of the more interesting moments from over a decade spent working together in advertising. Some of the duller ones include producing 768 banner variants for a finance client and working on a sizzle film for kitchen roll.
We’re a senior team at AMV BBDO, where we’ve worked for around five years since being hired by Alex Grieve, then CCO. We work across all accounts, including Guinness, Whiskas, Tena, Meta and Macmillan Cancer Support.
Before AMV we spent four years at Publicis, where we ran the placement scheme for junior creatives. And before that, we worked at Leo Burnett and McCann London. Despite this experience, and having produced hundreds of of them, we still couldn’t tell you what a key visual really is.
We’ve won over 60 industry awards including Cannes, D&AD, One Show and Clios. And our work has been written about in publications as varied as the Financial Times, Vice and a series of Angolan newspapers.
But what really drives us is creating distinctive work. Especially on brands or in categories that are perceived to be less fashionable or interesting, where advertising can make the greatest difference.
