Deakin University has launched its first brand campaign in more than three years, created by independent agency The Royals, which won the creative duties last year.

The integrated campaign, titled ‘Think Young’, includes two videos which feature a young man standing in front of neon-coloured pillars as he is faced with the need to choose ‘convention’ or ‘invention’.
“We wanted to create a campaign that was a distinct contrast from the rest of the University category,” said Nick Cummins, executive creative director at The Royals. “With ‘Think Young’, the execution had to feel as fresh and modern as the idea itself.”

“Deakin is a young, vibrant and cutting-edge university with great ambitions, and it’s our people that are the embodiment of our culture and the essence of who we are as a brand,” said Trisca Scott-Branagan, executive director of marketing at Deakin University.
“‘Think Young’ represents our challenger mindset and aligns our marketing and reputational goals for the future with those of our extraordinary students, staff and Deakin alumni.”
The campaign will be rolled out across television, digital video, out-of-home, social media, native and content channels.

It’s our people who…not that…are the embodiment…etc. Think young. But write well nonetheless.
