The Philatelic Group at Australia Post actively encourage stamp collecting as a hobby through the national Stamp Collecting Month program. This years program featured six key moments in the history of space travel.

We directed and produced the DVD included in the promotional kits, providing retail staff with an educational tool to conduct school visits and draw children into the wonderful and fulfilling world of Stamp Collecting.

The video encourages children to learn more about man’s exploration of space, the resulting space race between the USSR and the USA, and more recent innovations, such as the Hubble Space Telescope and the International Space Station. It features interviews with space travel and astronomy experts as well as being a useful historical source. The video also provides valuable information on how stamps are made and promotes the ‘Blast Off! 50 Years in Space’ stamp set and merchandise.
