Creating a unique language system, incorporating practical acronyms for her training methods and systems together with more playful ones to express her personality and philosophy (and love of social media abbreviations!). We have developed a distinctive tone of voice for all her communications.
One that reinforces Toni’s expertise and knowledge in fitness, rehab and nutrition but also the inspiring and fun experience training with Staff T will be.
The visual aesthetic is also rooted in her RAF background, utilising the distinctive red, white and blue colour palette and target motif as a vehicle throughout.

CLIP: Seassentials 'Value Brand'




Brand: Seassentials
Title(s): Value Brand
Agency: CLIP, London, UK
Agency website: http://www.theclipgroup.com/
Creative Director: Anish Mistry
Designer: Chris P.
Copywriter: Aditi Beri
Published: August 2014
Short rationale (optional): CLIP a London and Nottingham based creative agency have unveiled their newly designed packaging for Seassentials a value brand belonging to America’s largest crab meat company Blue Star Foods. Headquartered in Miami, Florida Blue Star Foods is an international company that produces crab meat in production facilities all over the world.
After designing the Blue Star Foods premium brand, CEO John Keeler commissioned CLIP to create a brand image for their value range. The project required the creation of a brand name, logo, and packaging design involving a can, inner box, outer box and functional stickers. CLIP used their three stage branding and packaging process which they have developed over the past fifteen years to ensure they provided the best possible design solution.
CLIP’s thorough branding process was based on current market conditions, consumer demands and creating a performance brand. The final name ‘Seassentials’ was chosen as it combined both the product theme and the ‘essential value’ aspect. Some aspects of the brand were predefined by the client such as the colours therefore the designers had to take these limitations into consideration throughout the process.

Post: Jon Hollis at Raised by Wolves
Short Rationale (optional): You may remember we last saw O2's beloved dog-slash-cat leading a packed seminar, urging us to Be More Dog via the power of the O2 Priority app. These two new films in the campaign show the effect of the pussy's preaching down the cinema and the art studio.
Meet Klaus. Serious art school model. Dedicated to nudity as much as his art. Unfortunately for him, his muse, Justine, is getting tired of the naked life and longs for the Good Life with the help of O2 Priority. Unfortunately for Klaus, this may involve wearing clothes.
In the next spot we meet Ziz. Rudeboy gamer turned social butterfly. He rarely made it outside but now thanks to the Good Life and O2 Priority is down the cinema on the regular - for real - with bare ladyshapes...or something.

Published: August 2014
Short Rationale (optional): The ‘We Will Beat Cancer Sooner’ campaign is based on recent statistics showing that now one in two people survive cancer, as opposed to 40 years ago when only one in four people survived cancer for 10 years or more. Cancer Research UK has set out to double the speed of progress and increase this to three in four people surviving cancer over the next 20 years.
For the first time we can now say just as many people survive cancer as die from cancer. The ad shows that this is a huge achievement in the fight against cancer, however there is still a lot more work to do. This ad sets out a renewed determination to keep fighting against this terrible disease with the certainty that we will beat cancer sooner.
The campaign will also be supported by digital, social and PR created by Cancer Research UK’s in-house team and partner agency Dare to showcase how people are interacting with the campaign and encourage participation in the wide range of the charity’s fundraising events.

Published: August 2014
Short Rationale (optional): The 30-second daytime advertisement will be shown on TV screens for nine weeks and features British actor, Philip Glenister.

This message is played out against a backdrop of him preparing a typical English breakfast, highlighting the simplicity of switching and the steps people can take from their own home to save on their energy bills.

Short Rationale (optional): To remind guys that fragrance isn’t just for special occasions, AXE (known as Lynx in some markets) has launched a campaign to promote its new range of fine fragrance bodysprays.
The campaign, created by BBH London, is based on the idea to encourage guys to make that extra effort during the tougher days of the week, and not save their best for the weekend. The two 50 second films, Monday and Wednesday, show the daydreams of two protagonists’ imagining a hyperbolic version of the day ahead.
The films are running online and on TV in LATAM, Australia and New Zealand.

DOP: Greg Taylor
Published: August 2014
Short Rationale (optional): The launch of Foot Locker’s Triple Black Collection sees fans grapple for limited edition trainers in blackout challenge produced by London based studio Found.
Found, a design-led motion studio, created a live event pitching Foot Locker fans against the clock in a frenzied hunt for the latest Triple Black Collection, to mark the launch of the new footwear range.
AMV BBDO brought Found on board, setting the challenge to create an immersive event to showcase the new trainer collection and offer fans the ultimate challenge to win a pair of limited edition trainers. Constructing a black box encasing a network of rooms each with a pair of hidden trainers inside, invited fans were unwittingly left to navigate the rooms in pitch black.
Each challenger entered a briefing room before facing a series of obstacles in various rooms; bees room with disconcerting sound effects, a balloon chamber, an installation room with a mixture of real and fake limbs protruding from the walls, and a final corridor filled with polystyrene balls, wind machines and strobe lights creating a dizzying vortex. Once the trainers were found, challengers were given only ten seconds to escape.
