Says Steve Hannan, national manager, media and advertising, nbn: "The nbn network is for all Australians. Part of our commitment to delivering this campaign was to ensure we showcase how the network is impacting many of our underrepresented communities. Through this collaboration with Deaf Services Queensland, we were able to learn first-hand of the bond between the two women. Being able to bring this to life in genuine way was immensely rewarding."
Says Asheen Naidu, executive creative director, BWM Dentsu: "The campaign dramatises the quality of video calling by demonstrating its use between two friends reconnecting via video call. The narrative is a great articulation of the flexibility that technology brings, and has allowed us to show another side of what being connected to the non network looks like."
The campaign will be seen on TV, online video, OOH, press and digital in selected markets from July 31.
