The Pond – Australasia’s first floating Creative Department.

| | No Comments

The Pond is filling up fast!

Celebrating its first six months and a pool of new inhabitants, The

Pond has moved from “a good idea hatched over a few beers,“ to

officially becoming Australasia’s first floating creative department.

Made entirely of freelance creatives from different creative

backgrounds, the Pond has a depth of resource with new arrivals Al

Dickman, ex-London Creative Director, Mark Irving, fresh quirky

writer, and just back from Sydney, Hamish Grieve – now featuring on

the home page.

This brings the total to six writers and four art directors with

diverse skills and a variety of team combos such as all-girl teams,

all-guy teams and girl-guy-girl teams.

The long-term vision is to freshen up the standard of freelance

creative and make it a more viable, creative option for agencies

moving forward in a tightening market. To this end the Pond is also

looking to attract top ex-agency talent and CDs to work the

Australasian scene.

The Pond does not service clients direct and plans to build its

existing agency affiliations by introducing new ways of working to the

advertising, design and interactive market.
