Telstra reminds moviegoers to put their phones on silent in new campaign via Bear Meets Eagle On Fire and +61

Telstra has created a cinema campaign to remind moviegoers to put their phones on silent, developed by Bear Meets Eagle On Fire and +61.

The series of silent short films - Mirror Mirror, Four-Legged Friend and Magnetic Boy – are directed by FINCH’s Dougal Wilson in his first Australian production and commercial project since 2018.

"So much care and craft has gone into these, I can’t wait to see them before some animated film my kids make me watch," Brent Smart, CMO of Telstra, said.

Micah Walker, founder and chief creative officer of Bear Meets Eagle On Fire, said: "This is such a simple, fun idea and getting to work with Dougal again has just made that even better. We couldn’t be happier with how they’ve come to life."

Wilson said: "It was a delight to work with Micah and his team and Telstra on such a fun project.

"I loved these ideas and crafting them with my wonderful production team and crew was a hugely enjoyable experience."
