Idea

Resurrecting the past

This two-year travelling exhibition showcased the stories of Australia’s military experiences from the First World War, right up to present day, in an immersive and highly memorable way. Recreated environments, over 200 military artefacts, digital effects, films and an audio guide brought the sacrifice and heroism of a hundred years of Australian servicemen and women to vivid, unforgettable life.

Shaped by its visitors

To ensure the exhibition resonated personally with each guest, we also curated a unique new ‘Local Stories’ showcase for each of the 23 communities the exhibition visited, featuring artefacts and stories from their region. Visitors could record and leave behind their own remembrance messages, as well as take away memories that moved them in a virtual story briefcase.

PACS Group IPO & Marketing Content

For PACS Group’s IPO, it was important to convey how the company is revolutionizing the post-acute healthcare industry, which has long been wrought with poor staffing, poor quality of care and, as a result, negative perceptions. For the IPO roadshow video, Imagination captured content from 32 voices including PACS executives, local leadership, clinical staff, and patients/family members. Additionally, Imagination designed and animated display assets at the NYSE and high visibility DOOH and media placements. Further video content was created for an internal listing day livestream and for use across PACS’ website and social channels.
