Call it the curse of parenthood.
Everyone thinks that their kids are the smartest, cutest, funniest and most talented (although in my case it’s true). As a consequence, it’s hard to maintain any objective distance from their accomplishments and everything they do.
It’s something I often struggle with in my role at Jack Morton. As hard as I try to avoid sounding subjective, sometimes we just do something so great I can’t help raving about.
Here’s a case in point – I am very delighted to report that, for the second year running, this week, we won first prize in the FOCAL Awards (Best Use of Footage in an Advertisement or Corporate Production) - this time for our client Nokia for a film called 'Days'
It’s an incredible piece of work, and I wanted to publicly congratulate the team responsible for it. But as I watched it again recently, I was reminded of just how much great work our film and video department has produced.
So I thought I’d take this opportunity to declare my subjective view, and encourage you to take a look at their showreel.

What's on my mind
About Me
- Kevin Jackson
- The glasses are important, since I’m almost totally blind in one eye. This means I have zero depth perception. Instead of making snap judgements, I have to think around a subject and look again to try and gain a sense of perspective. And that’s what I’m doing here - taking a different view of the trends and patterns around us to see if they’re as close as they seem, or further away than we thought. There’s not a discipline within the communications mix that I haven’t spent time in – what connects them though, is my passion for igniting advocacy and word-of-mouth. I’ve also worked on multi-platform campaigns for some of the world’s biggest brands, we are all on first-name terms. Ultimately, whether it’s a consumer, business or internal audience, no one is exempt from my belief in engaging experiential communications. Over the last four years ago, I’ve been busy developing relationships across the telecoms, technology, FMCG, retail and energy sectors, to name a few.
