As LEGO Christmas Town prepares for the big day, a foot interrupts the celebrations and sees Santa flung far away from home. With miles to cover (although about a meter) and Christmas just around the corner, Santa relies on an unexpected friend and some creativity with LEGO bricks and discarded objects from under the couch, to build a solution that will get him home in time for Christmas. The film is part of a wider APAC and ANZ Christmas campaign that includes TV, Digital, OOH, Social, PR, Print and In-Store POS.

The MIFF Emotion Simulator will allow Melburnians to physically experience the emotions of a MIFF film, before they see it.

 This artistically-lead scientific experiment is a custom-built movie chair that sees the face of willing participants electro-stimulated to demonstrate the way a movie will make someone feel, before the choose to see it. 

Participants will have 12 electrodes placed on the various major muscles of the face, allowing the simulation of happiness, sadness, disgust, fear, anger, and surprise. Participants can then choose which films from this year’s Festival they’d like to experience. In this way a two-hour film is concentrated into a minute-long experience unlike any other.

A chair-mounted camera films each session creating one-off film clips that can be shared via social media throughout the Festival’s duration, by MIFF itself as well as the participants. These provide a unique facial movie preview for the people of Melbourne to watch to determine what sort of film they wish to watch from the over 370 on offer at this year’s MIFF.

Uncontrollable shaking: it’s the most commonly recognized symptom of Parkinson’s. But not so recognized is how many young people are affected by the disease, a sobering and little known fact highlighted in an emotive new campaign for Parkinson’s NSW. Developed by J Walter Thompson Sydney and launched to coincide with World Parkinson’s Day, the powerful film ‘The Hold’ was directed by industry legend, David Denneen through Filmgraphics. It features an elderly man and his daughter holding hands, to subdue the father’s shaking. Or though it seems. It is then revealed that it is in fact the young woman whose hands are shaking, and she is the one who is living with Parkinson’s.
