Projects
- Orange RockCorpsIn 2007, I initiated and launched Orange RockCorps where we invited the nation to give 4 hours of their time volunteering in exchange for a free concert ticket. Through a targeted youth campaign (TV, digital, radio, print, OOH) and a partnership with Channel 4, Orange RockCorps achieved 51% awareness amongst 16-24s. It completely repositioned Orange within the youth category, overtaking O2’s market share for the first time in three years. I led the roll out into France and Israel due to its’ phenomenal success. I’m now working part-time with RockCorps as their Global Brand Strategy Director leading a team across USA, UK, France, South Africa, Australia and Japan to develop the global brand comms plan and ensuring creative excellence across the group.
- Orange at GlastonburyOne of my most memorable campaigns is Spot the Bull for Orange where we rigged up a field with live webcams and tracked a bull with GPS. Anyone who could guess where he would be at 3pm each day would get entered to win Glastonbury tickets. With a carefully orchestrated student and PR campaign, we achieved over 12 million visits to the site. I was also responsible for the delivery of the phone charging experience at the festival, the design of the award-winning Glastonbury app and received a Guinness World Record for creating the most tagged Facebook photo with a live shot from the Pyramid stage featuring over 60,000 festival-goers.
- EE Fenton 4GEE RemasterThanks to the launch of EE's 4G network, YouTube clips can be enjoyed on the go in super high quality. So when we realised that Fenton, the UK's favourite viral, was about to celebrate its one-year anniversary we decided to demonstrate how EE could now make the viewing experience even better. We paid homage to the original with a remastered version that took the unruly dog's deer chasing antics to the next level. We completely re-shot the clip to take advantage of the epic high quality, adding a few thousand surprises to the story.
