Many of our clients sit in marketing teams tasked with creating content that’ll increase engagement, brand awareness or sell a new product. Jumbla’s UK Head of Production Laura Breaden went to the Festival of Marketing (FoM) to hear industry insiders’ predictions around upcoming trends in marketing, to find out what’s working - and more importantly, what isn’t.

Here’s  her cheatsheet from the day.

Life as a salesman was antithetical to the career Cornel Swoboda appeared destined to pursue.

Yet there he was, another fresh-faced 20 year old donning a suit and tie to work a generic job while questioning his place in the world.

In early October, game audio composers, studios and devs gathered at the Arcade - Melbourne’s collaborative workspace for game developers - to discuss creating sonic landscapes and ‘breaking in’ to the industry. Jumbla’s in-house composer and sound designer, Sean Crowley, went along. Here’s what he found out.

It’s a tale as old as time.

An embattled Hollywood executive scrambles to find a property that’s guaranteed to make his studio bank. He  reaches deep into his studio’s archives, holds aloft a beloved classic from the 90s and cries, “this’ll do it! Nostalgia always sells!”

Illustrator Rachel Gyan understands how daunting it can be to embark on an animation career by relying on YouTube tutorials and blogs.

New and innovative forms of technology can be tricky to explain.

Two years ago, RoyalPay came to Jumbla to help launch one of Australia’s first payment platforms for WeChat and AliPay. One stunning explainer video and $2 billion worth of transactions later, they’re back again -- this time, to promote a new individualised Australian e-wallet solution for cross-continental transactions, powered by a neobank. (For those of us not in the know, a neobank is a solely digitally operated bank, not associated to any traditional banks.)

Anyone who had a parent scold them for ‘wasting’ time gaming when they were younger should be feeling pretty smug right now.

When Envato co-founder Collis Ta’eed asked for help launching  an app aimed at helping women build their own business, there was no way we could say no.

Billed as Australia's number one Counter-Strike: Global Offensive tournament, the Intel Extreme Masters (IEM)) is among the top fixtures on the domestic esports calendar.

Few things get the industry buzzing so much as news of a product launch. Yesterday, it was Sony that lit up feeds with the announcement of its much-awaited PlayStation 5.

We’ve reached that time of year again – when it gets dark out quickly, and the vast majority of the globe slinks back into their living rooms early on a Monday evening.

Former Starcom General Manager Naomi Johnston has joined Melbourne animation house Jumbla to drive the studio’s expansion among top-tier advertising clients.

Does a TAFE animation course make you job ready?

The average person sees 5,000 ads every day. That’s more ads than we can hope to remember in a year.

Evidently, one way to get a job at Jumbla animation studio in Melbourne is to look a lot like Head of Production, Steve Bradshaw.
