Meet Floyd, special guest at our latest shoot in LA with Girl On Top Jess Hart.

So what’s a New Yorkie doing in LA?
Jess is out here shooting for Portmans
so I thought I’d tag along.
Currently obsessed with: Nice luggage … and the hot Frenchy I sniffed in Santa Monica this morning.
Not a fan of: People trying to put me on skateboards for lame photo opportunities.
Where to next: Going for a walk and then back to New York.
Travel tip: Always keep bacon in your bag.

Is it getting hot in here? Welcome to The Art of Seduction for Rogerseller. For our latest campaign in the Art Of series we worked with filmmaking collective The Apiray to create a short film embracing the theme of uncontrollable desire. Playing out over three vignettes the film draws upon the powerful symbology of a flower as the ultimate seducer. Don’t worry, it’s safe for work viewing.

On the upside we came up number 2. On the downside we have some creepy company.

We’re proud to announce the new face of Portmans is global IT girl Jess Hart. Stay tuned for our launch campaign from New York, hitting the streets and internets over the next few days. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Not only did Hermès name a bag after her, she inspired one of the sauciest tracks of all time. Jane Birkin, Jane Crush No.1.

Name: Jane Mallory Birkin
Born: London, 1947
Slashes: Actor / singer / song writer / director
The Bag: In 1981, Jane was seated next to Hermès chief executive Jean-Louis Dumas on a flight from Paris to London. After spilling the contents of her straw bag onto the floor, she explained to Dumas that she couldn’t find a leather weekend bag she liked. In 1984 he created the Birkin bag and the rest is history.
Starsign: Sagitarian
It’s getting hot in here: Je t’aime… moi non plus
Starred in: Blowup; Death on the Nile; Wonderwall; Evil Under the Sun; La Belle Noiseuse;
Lovers: Serge Gainsburg
Children: Charlotte Gainsbourg, Lou Doillon
Quote: “I only like boutiques.”

It’s a long way to the shop if you want a Chiko roll. Unless of course you’re wearing these limited edition Chiko thongs. Designed by Jane as part of our endless summer promotion for the iconic Australian brand, the rubbery shoe convertibles had consumers flipping out to get their feet on on a pair. As for the road test, we wore ours all summer without one blow out.

Stay tuned to Nice Work for more details.

That’s right, it’s the best month of the year.
As the official sponsor of Jane-uary we’ve got all kinds of cool stuff planned this month. Like writing on windows … and …
well that’s it really.

Happy Jane-uary : )

Ever heard of Swakamond? Either had we until we Googled it and discovered that’s where we were shooting our next campaign for Portmans. As well as being famous for having heaps and heaps of sand, Swakamond is also the temporary home of the cast of Mad Max 4 – including our very own supermodel Abbey Lee Kershaw. Sand flies aside, the shoot turned out amazing.

Thanks for goodtimes Swakamond. ]]> http://janetheagency.com.au/greetings-from-swakamond/feed/ 0 http://janetheagency.com.au/string-theory-the-art-of-colour-for-rogerseller/ http://janetheagency.com.au/string-theory-the-art-of-colour-for-rogerseller/#comments Wed, 01 Aug 2012 03:42:05 +0000 admin http://janetheagency.com.au/?p=95

Our latest project for Rogerseller has us as excited as a bunch of kittens chasing a giant ball of wool. Working with the talented girls at Harvest Textiles we created an exhibition of sting artworks for our new campaign Art Of Colour. Here’s what the design folk over at Yellowtrace had to say:

‘What I really love about this project is the way the irreverence and playfulness of the chosen words and pure joy of colours that represent them, are balanced with the formality and intricacy of the 3D string sculptures. The result is bold and exciting, encouraging the viewer to engage with the work on multiple levels.’

Our job takes us to some strange and colourful places. And none more colourful than Bo Kapp in Cape Town South Africa. The amazing streets provided us with the perfect backdrop for our ‘Race For Colour’ campaign for Portmans staring Abbey Lee. Lovely people, great food, terrible weather. Two out of three aint bad.
