Role: Creative Direction

We have run the Merlin account for many years, producing ads and content for every international theme park. Here are just a few. For Italy’s Gardaland anniversary, we brought their iconic mascot to life.

During tough financial times, Merlin responded with reductions across all it’s parks. We created it’s first brand ad for 30 years to lead the campaign, then followed it up across lots of media.

THORPE PARK – THE WALKING DEAD

Role: Creative Direction

The famous TV show was becoming a ride. So an ad wouldn’t do, instead we came up with a mini series. Here’s a snippet.

We made posters that played with height to ride signs and the iconic baseball bat, ‘Lucille’ that smashed zombies in the show.
