Grown Ups launches first TV ad – for Youth Projects
New creative collective Grown Ups, which launched just over a week ago by adland veterans Grant Booker, Mick Hunter and Andrew Moss, has unveiled its first TV commercial.
In the 60-second film, for homelessness charity Youth Projects, a guide shows tourists around the laneways of Melbourne, showing them the places where she slept rough, did drugs and had unprotected sex for money.
Booker, creative partner at Grown Ups, commented: “It would’ve been easy to go down the path of showing kids shooting up and living in squalor in order to dramatise their hardship, but we decided to take a different approach with a bit of a dramatic twist to it”.
Oh god that is brilliant! Thought i was reading The Onion for a second.

Real stretch that one. You can see the years of experience oozing through.
Wasted opportunity, especially seeing that it’s all about getting wasted
