Directed by Photoplay’s Sarah Adamson.
Australia Post is celebrating the uniqueness of Australia’s 2,655 postcodes in a campaign via Droga5 ANZ, part of Accenture Song.
“Australia Post introduced the postcode system in 1967 as an administrative tool, but over time postcodes have taken on a cultural significance that goes far beyond four numbers in a box,” Australia Post general manager, enterprise brand and retail marketing, Aimee Dixon.
“Each postcode is an encapsulation of so many different elements of a community – the businesses, the food, the sporting clubs and of course, the people, that make that neighbourhood unique.
“This campaign is designed to remind the nation that our team deliver for every single one of these postcodes, connecting Australians with each other, and the world.”
The campaign is directed by Photoplay’s Sarah Adamson, featuring a recurring postcode sculpture, symbolising Australia Post’s presence in every community.
The campaign also includes hundreds of still images captured by photographer Cory White, who travelled across Australia documenting everyday moments in local communities.
The campaign is rolling out nationally across film, out of home, digital, social and localised executions.
“When we first envisioned this campaign, we were very clear that we wanted to represent all of Australia not the version you might see in a tourist brochure, but the real places and spaces that locals interact with on a daily basis,” said Droga5 ANZ creative director Connor Beaver.
“Sarah and Cory have done a terrific job getting under the skin of these communities, capturing real moments that we hope resonate with the people who call these postcodes home.
"Working alongside Australia Post, and our agency village partners, BRX, Keep Left, Thinkerbell and Wavemaker, we’ve built a campaign that reaches all 2655 postcodes.”
