Vinnie Jones in the Country

IDEA:
Vinnie Jones returned to the farm for season two - but the vibe wasn’t exactly pastoral bliss. It was equal parts calm and chaos, with building work, banter, and barely a moment’s quiet. The whole campaign played on that contrast, always teasing the question: will Vinnie ever find some peace and quiet.

Love Island

IDEA:

Love Island is the OG of all dating shows and this Summer it’s claiming what’s rightfully theres, LOVE!

We told other dating shows, dating apps, anyone with any kind of link to love… to step aside because this is our turf!

Alongside our 60” Animation spot, we continued our ownership of Love with our Cast Reveal, Stunts and social content.

Idea. You don’t have to do meditation, light incense and read affirmation cards to feel good. It doesn’t always have to be wholesome to be healthy, just do what gets you through.

Harper Collins x Trinny Woodall

Trinny Woodall’s new book Fearless needed a launch that made readers feel powerful. My campaign line ‘Fear Less, Be More’ captured the book’s spirit and spoke directly to women wanting to feel more energised, more purposeful, more joyful.

The idea was simple, strong, and versatile - used across the book sleeve, social, bookshop signage and merch - uniting the whole campaign under one empowering message.

WDR x Paperboyo Idents

WDR wanted viewers to love where they live - so we spotlighted North Rhine-Westphalia’s landmarks in a fresh, playful way. Partnering with Paperboyo, we created six idents that reframed local locations with clever paper cut‑outs, turning bridges into rollercoasters and buildings into sewing machines.

We enabled a public service broadcaster to celebrate their region by showing its familiar sights in surprising new forms.

Twinning

Twinning began when Red Bee Creative reached out to Kyiv agency Twid after Russia’s invasion — a simple offer of help, that grew into a powerful creative partnership.

We became “Twins,” and that spirit inspired Twinning: a way for creatives to ally with Ukrainian agencies, collaborate, and help keep their industry alive during war.

I created promos, design assets and promotional material to help Twinning expand beyond our own agency, and into others.

Follow on Instagram: @twinforvictory.

Twinning won Bronze at the 2023 Creativepool Awards.
