Mugged for Comic Relief

Arrive at work this morning and every mug/cup in the whole place has been kidnapped, the empty cupboards complete with a sign - 'you've been mugged'.



You basically have to go and buy back a dirty / clean / full mug off a couple of charitable scoundrels, with money going to Comic Relief. Smart and annoying equally.

Digital media isn't mass media for cheap...



All entirely true. By this man

Two media owner campaigns

Don't usually like talking ads on here, but here are two different ways of promoting a medium that caught our eye...

First up it's CBS outdoor with these straight up but beautifully written long copy ads for the tube. Not sure who wrote them, but hats off.







Next up is this mysterious piece from Posterscope. I'd seen these about for months and never bothered to check it out.





When I searched for it it took me here

All well and good but I'm none the wiser until I check out these blogs here and here

I'm not writing any more about it - read the blogs I linked to... but this is the blurb from Posterscope: "When you see an Out-of-Home ad and then follow it up online, you’re Oohgling. Out-of-Home advertising is great at creating interest and intrigue and that’s often followed up with an on-line search to find out more."

Guess we'll see more and more of this kind of stuff as traditional media owners have to prove why they should be in the mix.

Space: The 3rd Dimension

After a short break, our internal UTI's are back for 09.

Neil Mason, one of our top 3D dudes, has arranged the following, with some poster skills from Dangerous Dave...



3 diverse experts will be chatting their way through 3D spaces past, present and future. Those 3 are:

Gary Shelley - a designer responsible for a wide range of Museum and exhibition design projects in such places as the Museum of London, Tower of London, V & A and the Natural History Museum who currently works for award winning designers Casson Mann.

He's joined by Steve Jensen who is is just finishing Vivienne Westwood's offices and has a range of works spanning 20 years from residential projects to the Big Brother house.

And completing the trio is James Eyre who has worked for the likes of Barber and Osgerby Juggernaut and for the last five years Paul smith, designing windows for the man globally.

Should be good. A write up of what went down will be here a few days after in case you can't make it down.
