Aged Care Commerical – Seeking People 75+

Welcome! And thank you for making it this far. We’re excited you’re considering being part of this fun and landmark TV commercial for a trusted Australian Aged Care Provider.

As Queensland’s most trusted provider of aged care services to the home, everything they do is about supporting you to live life your way. So rather than focus on ailments and frailty, this ad will focus on two things:

1. The strength and spirit of your generation, who have grown up with rock and roll, space travel and have lived full and adventurous lives!

2. Expressing what Living life your way might look like… your likes, your wants, your irks, your quirks, your house, your rules, your way!


Who we’re looking for:

People aged 75+ located in Brisbane or surrounds.

We are looking for people with a likeable dignity, kindness + strength. 

People who have a good sense of who they are. 

People with a quiet confidence, a twinkle in their eye. 

Characters who capture the camera, just by being in front of it, rather than being performative.

People with great personal stories from a life well lived.

If one of your children, or a friend, pushed you forward for this and you are thinking that maybe you’re not interesting enough… chances are you are exactly who we are looking for! The best people never think of themselves that way.

Your generation were fun first!

Looking at photos like this, it’s impossible not to think how fun, confident and alive people like you who are now in their 70s and 80s were. Shirtless, flirting, dancing, laughing, breaking rules, not overthinking anything. You didn’t suddenly become “elderly” one day, that energy never disappeared, it just stopped being recognised. This campaign is about reminding people that you were once the coolest people in the room… and a part of you still is.
