As 2024 draws to a close, all of us at Punchy Digital Media want to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 🎁🌲 2025 promises to be a year of growth and new opportunities, and we’re looking forward to helping your organisation achieve its communication goals. Thank you for being part of our journey this year. Your support and collaboration mean the world to us. Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a prosperous year ahead!

When it comes to building resilience, what surrounds us and what happens to us shapes who we become. Safe, stable, and supportive family and community connections, responsive services, and healthy environments equip children with the tools they need to seize opportunities and overcome life’s challenges. We all have a role to play in creating these positive experiences. We worked with Emerging Minds Australia to create an animation that explains The Nest—Australia’s wellbeing framework for children and young people. This framework helps us understand what children need to thrive—not just within themselves, but also in their homes and communities. Want to learn more about how resilience develops in children?

Directors, committee members, and officials of sporting associations and clubs—have you thought about the risks your organisation might face? Our latest video for Gow-Gates Insurance Brokers in Sydney explains the two critical stages of risk management: assessment and control. We’ve taken this complex topic and broken it into easy-to-understand, bite-sized pieces. Want to learn more? Check out the video in the comments below! #communication #animationstudio

As the New Year approaches, I’ve been reflecting on a goal I set for myself this year: to try something completely new. Inspired by a Laird Hamilton documentary, I decided 2024 would be my year of learning to surf. It’s been, without a doubt, one of the hardest activities I’ve ever attempted. There are so many moving variables—timing, balance, paddling, and, of course, the unpredictability of the waves themselves. After countless sessions at URBNSURF, group and private lessons, and hours of paddling, it’s taken me an entire year to finally ride a wave by myself. The journey has been tough, but I’m incredibly proud of the resilience it’s taught me. Dedicating a full year to mastering one new skill pushed me far outside my comfort zone, and the rewards have been well worth it. As we head into 2025, I’d love to know: what new sport or activity will you take up in the New Year? Let me know—I’m excited to hear about the challenges you’re ready to tackle! P.S. Here’s a pic of me finally catching that wave—proof that persistence pays off! I still have a LONG way to go on this journey, but I’m loving every moment of it. 🏄♂️🌊

The first day of school can be an anxious and nerve-racking experience for anyone, full of uncertainties. Now imagine being an international student, living in a homestay, thousands of miles from your family. The nerves must be tenfold! We partnered with the VIC Department of Education to create a fun animation for prospective international students, giving them a glimpse into a day in the life of attending school in Australia. The goal? To ease their anxieties by showing just how easy, fun, and collaborative the experience can be. Check out the video in the comments below! #communication #animationstudio

You never know what’s around the corner. In an instant, life can change completely. We recently worked with the Motor Accident Insurance Commission (MAIC) in Queensland to create an animation that simplifies the claims process, making it easy to understand. Josh found himself in a tough spot after a motorcycle accident. But thanks to his Third Party insurance, he was able to focus on recovery, knowing his finances were taken care of. Question: Have you or someone you know ever had to file a claim after a motor vehicle accident? Do you wish you had a video like this to explain the process?
