Australian actor Liam Hemsworth fronts OPSM’s latest ‘Life. Focused’ campaign via Bashful
To highlight its category leadership and unrelenting focus on the needs of its customers, OPSM has launched its new brand platform ‘Life. Focused.’ Fronted by Aussie favourite Liam Hemsworth, the campaign was developed by creative agency Bashful after winning a competitive pitch.
The campaign takes a playful look at the over the top, fun and fictionalised life of Liam Hemsworth. OPSM is there at every moment fulfilling his glasses needs and bringing the brilliant stuff into focus. Whoever you are and whatever your needs, OPSM has got you covered.
Says Milena Cavicchioli, VP marketing, OPSM: “Thanks to his down to earth, humorous nature and unique Aussie spirit, Liam was the perfect and most natural choice for this campaign. At OPSM we believe that our lives are as unique as we are, and we promise to design glasses and services built around your life, no matter the lifestyle.
Says Tim Chenery, creative director, Bashful: “Life. Focused. is about making everything in our lives a little more brilliant. From your kid’s dance recital to watching movies. To launch this new brand platform with a sense of humour and scale, we needed to find an Australian with a brilliant life that’s even better with OPSM.”
Says Simon Bookallil, CEO, Bashful: “We are thrilled to be working with OPSM after winning a competitive pitch earlier this year. The teams in Sydney as well as Milan are top notch marketers and creatives, we’ve thoroughly enjoyed collaborating and are very proud of the work produced.”
The Life. Focused. campaign is led by several TVCs, a load of online video content, OOH and, of course, store windows.
Just last month Bashful launched the Shape Up campaign for OPSM, with the purpose of educating people on face shapes and on how they impact the glasses you should wear. The campaign was led by a major metro OOH buy.

timing
… what?
maybe he shoulda FOCUSED on his relationship
This is so bad I honestly don’t blame Miley for leaving him
Some agencies just have no idea when it comes to writing for screen.
logo more present.
No PR agency connected to this to advise on live dates. Specsavers should seriously troll this as the ‘should have gone to’ line immediately now springs to mind rather than OPSM!
What is wth the timing. Has the agency forgotten how to make 30 second television commercials?
Well that’s rubbish, but what do you expect from graphic designers trying to do advertising.
Same idea as theFoxtel ad featuring his self obsessed brother…except this is badly done.
Still miming being an agency in Aus?
bad script, bad direction
I dont get the hate? There’s some genuinely funny beats in there.
Lets not forget this is retail. Imagine the shopping list of client mandatories there no doubt would have been.
I like it
Liam’s funny in it and shows off the product a bunch
I reckon everyone’s sisters and mums like it too
I find it bloody Hilarous..
didn’t the director do ‘the indescribables’ or some bogey hollywood franchise like thats recently?
ps those photos are way too retouched.
LH is right. It’ll move specs, regardless of what ad wankers think.
Considering the line I would have hoped the photographer would have tried to get his eyes in focus for the print executions.
Life. Almost in focus.
A bit hit, a bit miss, but altogether pretty ok for retail. Liam’s not very funny, but who cares – he’s relevant to the audience and it’s still humorous and watchable. Retail guy is good.
