We’ve had great news for Lowe and Football Federation Australia from the Big Apple: Our work has picked up five medals in the hard-fought New York Festivals international advertising show!

The Great Christmas Wrapping Paper Swindle won four medals in the Avant-Garde Competition: Silvers in the ‘Innovative Use of Media’ and ‘Street Teams’ categories, and Bronzes in the ‘Guerrilla: Indoor’ and ‘Word of Mouth Buzz/Viral’ categories.
The Socceroos viral campaign also picked up a Bronze in the Interactive Competition.
