In his first venture into animation, Revolver director Steve Rogers taps the deep experience of Mathematic to craft the tale of two lost souls and how they find each other during the holidays thru Bear Meets Eagle On Fire and +61.

Micah Walker, CCO at BMEOF in Sydney: “We just wanted to create a story with a genuine Christmas soul, without leaning on all the expected tropes. Massive thanks to Steve, Revolver and the Mathematic team who’ve put so much into the beautiful film.”
 

“At its heart, this campaign is about connection: the kind that transcends distance, differences, and even tradition.”

 
Alita McMenamin, Telstra head of brand and marketing communications: “At its heart, this campaign is about connection: the kind that transcends distance, differences, and even tradition.

“It’s about finding your people, whoever and wherever they are, and celebrating the joy of being together. And as a 90’s music lover, the track [‘Tonight, Tonight’ by The Smashing Pumpkins] works so perfectly with the gorgeous story.”
