CHRISTMAS MIXTAPE
It’s the most marketing time of the year. We’ve done a few festive crackers over the years, enjoy.
TIS THE SEASON TO BE JOLLY
ICELAND
Described as 'weird', 'creepy' and 'bonkers' by the British press, our Iceland Christmas campaign acted as an antidote to the bland sentimentality of our competitors and gave the Great British public a load of delicious reasons to be jolly.
DON’T DRIVE NAUGHTY DRIVE NICE
NRMA INSURANCE
Christmas is when the roads are most dangerous—and family matters most—so we let kids do the talking, turning their voices into powerful road safety messages across film, hand-drawn OOH, social, and a back-seat podcast to help bring everyone home.
A TRADITION REBORN
DAVID JONES
To bring new life to a 70-year tradition and draw shoppers back in-store, we reimagined the David Jones Christmas Choir with 10 emerging Aussie artists, blending heritage with hype across live performances and online film.
AUSSIE MIXTAPE
A few more iconically Aussie campaigns.
GO THE DISTANCE
GULF WESTERN OIL
A wanderer roams the tough Australian landscape atop his trusty vehicle with nothing but his wits and the world's most durable engine oil by his side.
LAMBALYTICA
MEAT & LIVESTOCK AUSTRALIA
In the wake of rigged elections and data scandals, we launched Lambalytica—a summer campaign that took on Big Tech with nothing but a BBQ, using the power of lamb to reunite a divided nation around the ultimate social feed.
TELSTRA
MIXTAPE
Telstra was a major client of The Monkeys for 15 years and we were lucky to make work for almost every part of the business. Here’s a little taste.
I’M NOT WORRIED ABOUT DATA
Telstra Pre-Paid means no matter what life throws at you you’ll never, ever have to worry about running out of data again. Shot with Tim Bullock these spots were a refreshing new tone for the brand.
BE THAT BUSINESS
Shot with RBG6 we managed to create a detailed hyper-real world that put real people and their incredible businesses on a pedestal, whilst also highlighting the latest in Telstra tech.
EXPERIENCE
BETTER WIFI
To highlight how seamless Telstra’s new Smart Modem is we crafted an elevated product demonstration using elegant visual metaphors .
BE ENTERPRISING
Despite pandemics and bushfires this campaign helped show how Telstra and it’s partners were helping to create real positive change. Shot with Kiku Ohe we managed to create a free flowing view of a very enterprising Australia.
LIVE THE SHOW YOU LOVE
Shot during COVID, this series of spots highlighted how much better streaming your favourite Netflix shows can be on Australia’s best nbn network.
NEIGHBOURHOOD LONDON
To build hype around the arrival of Adidas’ flagship London store, we created an integrated campaign, Neighbourhood London, that celebrated all that makes London truly Original.
