I did Automotive for 2 years. We made ads every day and got to know the client (and their needs) really well. Here’s a selection of ads and things I’ve made for BMW & MINI, and FORD.

FORD GLOBAL PITCH 2019
Concept EV Launch


NOTE: ‘Electron’ is a concept name
CHALLENGE
People think electric vehicles are not powerful.


IDEA
Why not launch Ford Australia’s first EV through a powerful act of nature?


EXECUTION
We will launch the EV through the power of lightning.



We launch Ford Australia's EV vehicle in the Northern Territory with one of the world's most consistently
large thunderstorms each year, which they named 'Hector the Convector.'

Suspense is built with each lightning strike as the EV charges up and is ready for its maiden voyage around Australia

FORD Low Price Tyre Guarantee

The cutest way to talk about road safety


INSIGHT
People don’t think about the safety of their tyres until it’s too late.  

IDEA
It’s cute when your dog loses grip, but when it’s your car slipping, you’ve got a serious safety issue. So, let’s use thumb-stopping
viral videos of cute dogs to communicate the importance of safe tyres in an interesting way.

EXECUTION
So, let’s use videos of dogs slipping to demonstrate to people the symptoms of unsafe tyres.


UNMADE PROACTIVE: Non-slip dog socks and dog toys from recycled tyres.
