Vocus Group and ATime&Place have launched the next evolution of the Dodo brand, widening the world of Dodo and introducing new characters. Through a series of NBN and mobile commercials, the audience is given a unique view into Dodo’s life and neighbourhood.

 

Says Matt Lawson, CCO, ATime&Place: “It’s great that in this campaign we’ve been able to begin building out the new world of Dodo and treat Dodo as just a real and regular guy. Just a regular talking bird guy. And it’s wonderful that this approach is already selling, without the yelling.”

Says Tony Timpanaro, general manager, consumer marketing of Vocus: “This campaign represents the beginning of a stark evolution for dodo with a move from talking at consumers to showcasing more genuine, enjoyable conversations around our mobile and internet products. We’re delighted to give Dodo a break from his usual presenting gig and get him out in the real world. As always though, what shines through is the intersection of quality products and a great price that makes Dodo the real deal.”

The campaign is brought to life across TV, online, outdoor, radio, PR, print, owned channels and affiliates.
