Hello, we’re Ant and Rich. We have ideas.
Some of them are shaped like ads. Some of them look more like games, bits of street art or gifs.
Some of the best ones are platforms for other people to do bigger, more impactful things than we could on our own.
In the course of bringing our ideas to life we’ve smashed up shops, dangled pianos over prospective customers and annoyed the biggest company in the world. Our work has featured in some of the world’s most-respected publications, on Wembley Stadium and on top of the BT Tower.
It’s even popped up on Crimewatch.
A lot of what we’ve learnt was picked up at VCCP, where we worked across most of their main accounts, especially O2, easyJet and Hiscox. We helped these clients build their brands, sell their stuff and win awards for both craft and effectiveness.
Now we freelance for agencies like MullenLowe, Iris, Ogilvy and TBWA. We’ve also worked at smaller shops, using big-agency thinking to craft award-winning charity campaigns tackling online abuse and raising awareness of neurodiversity.
If you’re looking for an ideas-led team that will carry work over the line regardless of format, budget, client or deadline then we’d love to have a chat.
