Focus Ireland – How Will Santa Find Us?
‘How will Santa find us?’ was a Christmas story from first time authors Shane O’Brien and Stephen
Rogers. This book was conceived as a response from Ireland’s creative community to our growing homeless
crisis, in particular the startling number of homeless children. It was launched as a collaboration in April 2019 at OFFSET and features beautiful artwork from some of
Ireland’s best loved illustrators. Each page is drawn in the unique and distinct style of the different illustrators as we go on a
journey through the children’s imaginations. Produced by Bren Byrne and Jessica Derby and published by Gill Books. It was the first project from Good Cop Good Cop, storming the best-selling charts in the lead up to Christmas, was featured on The Late Late Toy Show and raised over €75,000 for Focus Ireland.
Kerrygold – Love The Taste
Produced to accompany the launch of Kerrygold Spreadable, we first went through many different iterations to align the piece with our understanding of the brand heritage and legacy in advertising. We looked to embrace the Irish of the brand, examined threads such as relationship with the land, the son/mammy relationship, a balance between a sense of melancholy and a sense of humour and of course celebrating the product by placing it at the centre of the story. We landed on a simple concept, Kerrygold is notoriously difficult to use straight form the fridge, this new product made it easy for a child to use.

DCC – Induction
After a lengthy recruitment embargo, Dublin City Council is once again hiring. But to compete with tech giants and local heroes, they needed to create an induction experience that would not only make people excited to join Dublin City Council but make them want to stay.
Offset Dublin – Title Sequence
Working with UK agency and OFFSET 2014 speakers Golden Wolf, we produced an opening title that was focused on the creative process in an agency. A little tongue in cheek.
Offset London – Title Sequence
Using what seems like every second of his time when he wasn’t working at The Mill+ in New York, Dublin’s Aran Quinn created our OFFSET London titles.
