A mascot can be a very powerful move for a brand. We’ve seen it work times and times again! Who else has the tender childhood memory of Tony the Tiger (the Frosties mascot)?

It is a classic marketing technique and is still very much used these days, and with great efficiency.

Believe it or not but people buy feelings, not things. Several studies have shown that emotional responses to an ad have far a greater influence on a consumer’s intent to buy compared to the actual content of the ad. Not only that, but emotional attachment can create loyal customers.

There are several Emotional selling methods in Marketing, but all of them stem from knowing your customers intensely and focusing on the deep benefit of your product. Understand – not the features of your product, but the end benefit of it.

Here’s how we did it with Maya Swimwear.

Pyreken Pyrethrum offers natural insecticides directly to customers but also businesses such as big retailers, pest control companies, schools, agriculture, and farmers in Australia and New Zealand.

Their business is situated here on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia – a fantastic part of the world which Visual Targets also calls home ☺.

As designers, we know that every logo will start from a different point. From a nebulous idea drafted quickly on a cafe napkin to the already half-done or almost there designed logo that only needs reshaping.

We never know what a new project will bring, but we are always up for it!

Here is the perfect example. Over the year, we designed a logo for each business of this family of 3.

Television moves fast. Graphics need to be polished, on-brand and ready to broadcast, often yesterday.

When Channel 10’s Well Traveller needed animated graphics for their national travel series, the production team came back to us at Visual Targets. We had previously worked with them on Helloworld’s content, so they already knew our pace, process and standards.

This time, the brief was clear: bring movement, clarity and visual consistency to a feel-good Australian travel show hosted by six consecutive female world surf champion Layne Beachley.

Airline logos aren’t just fancy graphics on a plane—they capture decades of aviation history, brand values, and cultural stories. By tracing the visual journeys of globally loved carriers like Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Qantas, Virgin, and Qatar Airways, we uncover why logo design matters: it shapes recognition, trust, and identity in the crowded skies.

Energetic drinks seem to leap off the shelves, packed with colours and fonts so bold you can practically hear them shout.

These cans and bottles reflect the intensity of extreme sports, embodying high energy and an “in-your-face” vibe. But it’s not just loud design for the sake of being loud—it’s a deliberate strategy that targets consumers who crave excitement.

Animation allows us to tell a story in unique ways, with techniques that provoke inspiration and magical feelings appealing to all ages.

In this article, we’re going through the types of animation available to you and how it can help your business.
