Reimagining a Travel Icon for the Next Generation
Situation:
Getaway, Australia’s longest-running travel and lifestyle show, has been on-air since 1992—captivating audiences with sun-drenched beaches, big smiles and that unmistakable opening theme.
But Channel 9 knew it was time for a refresh:
- Modernise the broadcast design without losing its nostalgic charm
- Create production assets that future-proof the show
- Appeal to new viewers while honouring its rich legacy
The challenge? Connect across generations—visually, emotionally and practically.
Solution:
Producible delivered thoughtful creativity and intelligent production by developing a flexible broadcast and promo toolkit that stayed true to the brand, yet moved it forward.
We delivered:
- Updated design assets: superbars, maps, competitions, and titles
- A reusable, easy-to-update template system for CH9’s internal team
- A suite of promo content for TV, digital and social
- A design approach that balanced heritage warmth with modern energy
Why it worked:
- Iconic visuals got a respectful lift—not a radical overhaul
- The toolkit enabled self-sufficiency and long-term cost savings
- Viewers old and new recognised Getaway, but saw it through fresh eyes
Impact:
- New opening credits reimagined with style and substance
- Cross-platform promo assets extended the show's reach
- Visual consistency across all touchpoints boosted brand presence
- A future-ready identity that lets Getaway stay timeless and timely
The Producible Effect:
“We helped Channel 9 connect better—by modernising an icon without losing its soul. The result? A refreshed Getaway that feels as welcoming in 2025 as it did in 1992.” David Flanagan, Director of Strategy & Creative.
