Hello.
We're Nick Bird and Lee Smith, creative partners at Lucky Generals.
We're an experienced team who've tackled pretty much every type of brand at some point or other.
For over a decade we have been creative directors, producing work for and running a wide range of accounts that include Amazon, Yorkshire Tea, Cancer Research UK, The Co-op, GambleAware and NHS -The Department of Health – Anti Smoking. We've run many pitches and have plenty of new business wins under our belt, such as Yorkshire Tea, The Co-op, Cancer Research, Gordon's Gin, The Department of Health, The Post Office, OVO and Carwow.
We've been lucky enough to work for some of the UK’s most respected and innovative agencies, across a hugely diverse list of clients. We're as comfortable creating social campaigns and experiential ideas, as we are writing a global TV ad.
