Nova keeping Brisbane sounding different
Nova Brisbane is determined to Keep Brisbane Sounding Different. Especially in the morning with the launch of a new breakfast show with Meshel, Tim and Marty.
Agency Banjo has created three posters to promote the show – they all containnative Brisbane animals shot in well-known Brisbane surrounds, in theearly morning light. The mouths are the actual mouths of the hosts -Meshel, Tim and Marty.
Ultimately the posters are part of a bigger campaign to change andimprove the sound of Brisbane – everything from its ringtones to itsbuskers – and establish it as The Best Sounding City in Australia, ifnot the world.
The images are going to be very visible around Brisbane – running on billboards, bus backs and bus wraps.

Where’s my 3 iron?
more turgid drivel from up north
The “WFT” campaign they last year did was complete shit. Good work Nova for going to another agency. Great work people at Banjo.
what is that saying….? Honestly.
sounding different, sounding better? what?
And how does anyone have any idea that they are the mouths of the DJs…?
An idea is supposed to be simple…this is the opposite of that and just for fun it looks shit too.
Surely the radio hosts can’t be ugly enough to replace with toads?
This campaign is fucked. No wonder Nova have their agencies on a roster.
I quite like it. Type a bit hard to read though. Was Make the previous agency?
Apart from the suiting, it appears this “turgid drivel” floated north from Sydney.
Turd rolled in glitter, then shat on again.
Nice one 6.20. Georgia Arnott is in Sydney. And why aren’t there any bananas? It is Queensland after all.
Nice one chief
This hasn’t helped the cause, or reputation, of Brisbane agencies one bit. We’re trying to get some solid work done up here, toiling away under the radar in our isolated little world. And then this shit comes along and keeps the bar well and truly down at about ankle-level. Very average, Banjo.
But it’s their actual mouths!
Actual!
So they sound like croaking toads, squawking birds or Koala’s…what do Koala’s sound like?
Not sure this work does anything for the breakfast team or the Nova brand.
Andrew L has prying eyes! 😉
Stone the crows, cane the toads and kick a koala!
Now this campaign will definitely get Brisbane saying ‘WTF’!!!!!
Great photography.
This’ll show you what a koala sounds like…(at about 1 min 37sec)…

Sounds like the creatives didn’t understand what the agency ‘planner’ was saying. Does anyone?

this is brilliant, you guys are thinking to much about the meaning behind it….just appreciate a funny piece of media I liked it and so should you.
yeh thats right everyone is entitled to my opinion
There’s no way you can polish this toad….
So the idea is to take brisbane specific icons and stick your celebrities mouths on them?
So apart from the cane toad, none of them are brisbane icons.
And how the fuck are people supposed to know that’s their mouths unless you attach a press release to each ad?
Actual!
Mouths!
Think new DMG CEO will mean new DMG advertising sooner than later.
