EPIC. Who said TV advertising is dead? Needs several viewings to appreciate the complexity of what Nike have done here. The gauntlet has been well any truly thrown down to other sportswear manufacturers (any just about anyone else) in the run up to the World Cup.

Happy birthday to Lauren who is 30 today!

We are proud to introduce Quinn Li Walters. Congratulations Dave!

We were very excited to be named Gold Winners at the IVCA Awards on Friday night. The awards are the most acclaimed celebration of effective business and public sector communications in video, interactive projects, business television and digital media across Europe.  The ceremony was held at the Grosvenor House Hotel, and was attended by over 700 commissioners, government representatives and industry colleagues. One of our favourite cameramen, Robin Fox also scooped a Gold Award for Best Photography.

However much you tell people what you’re about, there’s nothing like showing them.

That’s why we encouraged the London Handel Festival to make a video of a typical major production of the Festival in rehearsal. We filmed some great music and heard what the stars, the artistic director and his colleagues have to say about Handel, his music and his place in the life of London (his adopted home for 50 years, and the place where he died).

We picked Theodora - one of the last and greatest of Handel’s oratorios whose theme - dear to mid-eighteenth century novelists - was that of a virtuous damsel in distress. The setting for this production was the great church of St George’s in Hanover Square, where Handel himself worshipped, and where the London Handel Festival has its home. The result, we hope you will agree, is astonishing and curiously moving.

We’ve recently finished shooting and editing some films for Kazakh metals and minerals company ENRC with our chums at Phoebus. Covering a country the size of Western Europe had its challenges - quaffing the local horse-flavoured vodka was just one. Genuinely hospitable people although the local jimmy-jibbers out of Almaty didn’t seem to have the sense of humour gene switched on - I guess a 24hr car journey to the first set up isn’t very funny. Astana extraordinary - bit like ancient Rome meets Dubai. And the wild apple forests were gorgeous - Marco Polo knew his apples. Check out our little behind the scenes clip put together by J.
