The Remington Group Inc. chose STC, not because they're deeply involved with real estate advertising, precisely the opposite! We chose STC because they have the ability to generate outstandingly fresh ideas, execute those ideas impeccably and their strategy-to-results track record has provided Remington with impressive business results. Our choice has been validated by the creation of a presentation centre, the naming, branding, taglines, videos, advertising and storytelling of Downtown Markham - Remington's most ambitious project to date - a 243-acre mixed-use development with a lifespan of 20 years to completion. Remington has provided with and engaging vision by STC, and the future looks very promising.

STC developed the creative for the most important initiative undertaken by the Gardiner Museum since it opened. The Museum has committed to a $15 million capital campaign to renovate and strategically expand its facilities. STC was able to capture the essence of the museum, and what it plans to achieve by using the beauty of its collections and the words of its constituents to produce communications materials that stir the imagination of a broad and culturally active public.

Alexandra Montgomery, Executive Director, Gardiner Museum

I can't imagine another agency who gets it as well, and as fast as yours! Thank the team.

Heather Epple, Vice President Marketing, Disney, London, UK

Congrats to you and your team for a wonderful, wonderful job. I know when I get butterflies in my stomach and my tear ducts well up that we have something very special.

Martin Bragg, Artistic Producer, The Canadian Stage Company

STC have provided a voice to a company quietly screaming to its constituency. Our recent successes would not have occurred without the contributions of your company. Read that line again. We look to you to help us continue to grow both financially and artistically.

David Abel, Executive Producer, The Canadian Stage Company

In response to a complex communications challenge, the wonderful team at STC, led and inspired by Scott Thornley, provided both a brilliant strategic solution and heart-breakingly beautiful creative. We needed to inspire and engage people to comprehend, support and participate in Royal Conservatory programming. While the cognitive enhancement benefits of our curriculum is proven and our legacy of musical excellence well-known, the challenge of linking our 'tenses', 'past', 'present' and 'future', in clear and compelling language was daunting. The multi-faceted campaign crafted by this extraordinary group is predicated on the theme line: "The Royal Conservatory. The finest instrument is the mind." Execution of the campaign has required the nimblest of service teams and, again, STC has been outstanding.The response to the campaign has been overwhelmingly positive - on every available measure. I would highlyrecommend Scott and his team to any organizationin search of a brilliant strategic and creative agency.

Karen Leiter, Senior Director, Marketing and Communications, The Royal Conservatory

As a scientist, I've always believed in the deep connection between art and science. Scott Thornley + Company is the first creative team I've met who understand how profound that connection is. Equally committed to discovery, using language and images as their research tools, they capture the essence (and value) of complex research, revealing the powerful stories needed to move people through understanding and support for scientific initiatives. I'm proud to recommend STC for all of these reasons, and one more: they have never let me down.

Everything the Salk Institute produces for public consumption needs to meet the high standards Jonas Salk established when he first created the Institute. Scott Thornley + Company has been instrumental in helping us achieve that goal.STC has consistently produced intelligent, creative, sophisticated and highly effective communications solutions for Salk including brand/identity, our bimonthly newsletter, and other print and web projects. STC has been especially effective in grasping complex issues, sensing the needs and sensitivities of multiple stake-holders, and producing outstanding, strategically-focused solutions. Their service andsupport have been excellent, and I have enjoyedworking with them immensely.

It's all in the story. You listened, you imagined. You heard gravitas in our Dignitas, and gave image to our story. You have captured it so that we cancapture others. You are now a part of our story. A million blessings for a million days. With full thanks.

Dr. James Orbinski, Nobel Laureate and Co-Founder of Dignitas International

We've lived with this brand for over a year - it's amazing how it stands up in so many contexts and has elevated the perception of Dignitas every time it is incorporated; all while still reflecting the essential fabric of the organization. Magnificent work.

Harvey Wolfe, Dignitas International

On behalf of the Christopher Reeve Foundation, I am extremely grateful to Scott Thornley + Company for developing our new creative brand and tag line shortly after Christopher Reeve's death. STC conducted research with our key stakeholders, which became the basis for the strategic summary they developed for our new creative strategy, ensuring that it was precisely focused and relevant to all of our audiences. Under the brilliant artistry of Scott Thornley, STC captured the essence of the Foundation's mission in a beautiful, moving, poignant way. Their creative was essential to our continued success. Your clients are fortunate to have you as a member of their team.

Maggie Goldberg, Vice President of Public Relations, Christopher Reeve Foundation

STC approached the challenge of representing the work we do on stage by taking the heart of our company - the acting ensemble - and bringing them front and centre in all of our marketing efforts. By choosing to focus on the actors, and by challenging some of our entrenched ideas about how our marketing materials should look, STC helped bring renewed focus and excitement to our marketing campaign and provided the festival with a refreshed and dynamic new energy.

Jill Planche, Director of Resource Development, The Shaw Festival

I have started to see a lot of the material that you and your colleagues have been putting together for Atlantic Scene. I just wanted to tell you how knocked out I was. I think it is beautiful material. It has a wonderful, fresh, strong message and you guys have done great, GREAT work. It's just my way, my saying, before everything happens next week, and next month, how much I appreciate the effort that all of you have put together. You have done wonderful work. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Peter A. Herrndorf, Director General and CEO National Arts Centre

The concept of the presentation was devised by Toronto cultural advertising guru Scott Thornley, who got an emergency call 11 days earlier from the Heritage Ministry. It was Thornley who came up with the slogan Tomorrow Starts Today (with the first10 letters in white and then "arts today" in red). It was Thornley who came up with the young performers asa way of emphasizing the educational, forward-lookingpoint of the whole exercise.

Martin Knelman, Toronto Star

I think for the first time we've really nailed the imagery of the National Post.

Ron Clark, Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing, National Post

I've had a lot of reaction to the campaign from staff, and it is very positive. I think these very important people feel we have finally launched something that conveys the richness and intent of the newspaper they work for, and are so proud of. Thanks so much for your effort and, more importantly, your creative juice.

Gordon Fisher, Assistant Publisher, National Post, Vice President Editorial, Southam Inc.

STC's brilliant creative strategy took a broad mix of communication messages and distilled them into three simple words. "Speak for Children" has become the clarion call for all OECTA members. From a vibrant outdoor campaign to a targeted, multi-lingual print strategy to the "Speak for Children" jackets and caps now seen en masse at all our member events, STC's strategic marketing leadership has generated resounding internal support from our membership and helped generate a growing groundswell of support amongst Ontarians committed to demanding of our political leaders that they "Speak for Children.

Aleda O'Conner, Director of Communications, Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association

I have worked with major multinational agencies around the world and have found STC as professional and creative as the very best. The results are the proof of that: on our most critical income element, subscriptions,we are currently 31% ahead. If this momentumis sustained, we will lead major North American orchestras in reversing an industry-wide trend.

Michael Buckland, Director of Marketing & Communications, Toronto Symphony Orchestra

In refocusing and reinvigorating its brand, STC brought the Toronto Symphony Orchestra to life. They were strategic partners during a time of great cultural change at the Symphony and brought savvy, wit, and inspiration to everyone including the musicians, the staff and the Board. The resulting marketing campaign has produced significant growth in the first six weeks since its launch.

Celia Smith, former Interim Director of Marketing & Communications, Toronto Symphony Orchestra

Throughout the logo process, Scott Thornley +Company took us on a journey of discovery where we came to a deeper understanding and clearer articulation of our essential values. STC then translated this knowledge into a beautiful and enduring symbol that brings this message to the world.

David Crombie, Chief Executive Officer, Waterfront Regeneration Trust

Congratulations to you and the team for the great job on the identity and the website. The site launched yesterday and the response has been very positive. I'm certain this work will be crucial in making new links between neuroscientists - both within and outside UCL - and in helping us obtain funding.

Michael Häusser, Wolfson Institute for Biomedical Research, University College London

It is your creative which has put this project on the national and international scene. The messages we received from world leaders like Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, the Prince of Wales, Nelson Mandela and others, only serve to underscore that they too were captured by your creative and strong message to youth…the excellence and dedication, the professionalism and the highest standards in every aspect of the project, and STC's ability to service our needs, has played a leading role in the success of this project.
