30 October 2012: Red Agency have celebrated their 10th birthday with the unveiling of a new brand identity and video.
PR and marketing communications agency Red Agency (www.redagency.com.au) today celebrates its 10th birthday with the unveiling of a new brand identity and releasing a light-hearted video that showcases the agencies love for its clients.
The short video created for the 10th birthday features the agency bringing to life a giant ball-shaped ‘Pass the Parcel’ that appears through the power of meditation (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJHlfJ85Usg&feature=youtu.be). The parcel then comes alive, rolling around and visiting a number of Red Agency clients across its three offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. As each layer is unwrapped a special present is unveiled for clients.
Red Agency began life in Spring 2002 in Melbourne and the agency quickly developed a solid client base before expanding into New South Wales and then into Queensland. Some of the agencies most well-known campaigns include:

We raise a big glass of the finest stuff to each and every one of them, as well as all our friends that have helped us along the way, they know who they are, and say “here’s to another ten more years”.”
