Description:
56 puppets, 42 voices, 26 films; all demonstrating the power of Telstra’s network.
Telstra, Australia's largest network, has more coverage in more places. To bring this to light in a down-to-earth way; rather than making one big, chest-beating spot, we created 26 small films, each representing lesser known regional towns where it's better on a better mobile network.
Cast from a wide variety of authentic Australians from all over the country, the characters come to life as everything from father and son krills and blokey wattle flowers, to larping Tasmanian devils and teenage goth cockatoos.
