💭 Our Melbourne Group ECD Psembi Kinstan shared his thoughts on our secret sauce for creativity, how he landed in the industry and whether commercial creativity can only take place in a room full of black t-shirts....😉
For Australian creative agencies, I think we all need to do better at proving the efficacy of cut-through, ambitious creative campaigns to spur our market on. I’d say the average is fairly low in Australia for the standard campaign, versus a market like the UK or the US where the competition between brands is fiercer. There’s a big sea of sameness here amongst brands; our biggest hurdle is proving that we need brands to rise above it. Psembi Kinstan, DDB Group Australia

To celebrate NAIDOC week we went on a journey of 'Unlearning' with our friend Dwayne from Ngaran Ngaran Culture Awareness training. Dwayne is a Yuin-Ngarrugu Descendant with connections to the Yorta-Yorta, Dja Dja Warrup, Watchabolic & Gunai language groups. He is determined to change the narrative, unlearn misinformation and embed Indigenous ways of knowing so that we can truly bridge the divide. We left the session humbled, empowered & committed to continuing the conversation because for each of us to influence just 1% of people will make a difference.
