Target harnesses natural forces in new activewear campaign via AJF Partnership
Shot on Sydney’s rugged southern coast, Target’s new season activewear campaign via AJF Partnership celebrates the energy we feel when we get out of the gym and into the elements.
The raw power of the sun, wind and waves are not only reflected in the designs, but also the quality of the new range.
Says Kenton Elliot, general manager, marketing, Target: “At Target, we’re proud to have released an amazing new collection of Activewear, designed to stand up to Australian conditions.”
Scored by Kevin Morby’s hauntingly beautiful track, Harlem River, the campaign will run in multiple media channels including TV, gym screens, OOH and social media.
Says Josh Stephens, executive creative director, AJF Partnership: “We hope the Natural Forces campaign inspires people – not only to enjoy working out, but to enjoy being in the outdoors too.”
The campaign was created by AJF Partnership, a GrowthOps Business, and directed by Sophia Banks at FINCH, with media planning and buying by OMD.

This is why you should pay for a stills photographer
These ads are getting tired…I can’t imagine these ads to be turning the business around. Same strategy, same execution. Yawn!
I’m sure the music is taken from Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used To Know”.
Boring ad. Nothing strategically new.
Oh no. Is there a decent Art Director at AJF or were they all fired?
Best work to come from target in some time
Great shots, sound track and ticks the diversity boxes.
Scenery amazing
Love the cinematography and soundtrack on this. very smooth
