The brief
An unforgettable year
From raging bushfires to global lockdowns, 2020 was a year where people desperately needed reliable information. The SMH and The Age, two of Australia’s biggest news sources, trusted us to go to market with this year’s big brand campaign, including their first TVC in years, to promote the power of knowledge.

Pictures that moved you
The Age and The SMH offer a sense of depth and perspective that other newspapers shy away from. It only felt right that their brand campaign did the same, so we turned poignant images from their photojournalists into a sequence of eye-catching cinemagraphs.
