🏆 We took the win on Gruen! 🏆

Last night, The Mark Agency appeared on ABC’s Gruen to respond to the brief:

👉 “Convince us the Australian Government should be solely run by mums.”

Our campaign, “Making the Calls,” reimagined who’s really running the country, with a twist of truth, humour and heart. The result? A 3–1 win from the Gruen panel and a whole lot of love from the audience.

Created in partnership with WildBear Entertainment, the spot celebrates the everyday leadership of mums, showing what might really be going on behind closed cabinet doors.

Finally, a huge thank you to all our family, friends, clients and collaborators for the incredible messages, support and encouragement.

A tale of courage, camaraderie, and the human spirit, WildBear Entertainment’s “The Raftsmen” will premiere June 12th at the 2025 Sydney Film Festival!

Directed by Chadden Hunter and edited by Chris Bamford, this is the story of 12 adventure-mad misfits who pursued a perilous attempt to cross the world’s largest ocean on handmade log rafts, with only the stars and sun to guide them from Ecuador to Australia. Fifty years on, their original 16mm footage has been beautifully remastered and the surviving “rafters” share their incredible story.

Presented by Dogwoof and Screen Australia in association with Screen Canberra , tickets are available at https://www.sff.org.au/program/event/the-raftsmen/
