The Students are not revolting.

As a city centre agency we get requests from students of all ages

asking for jobs and placements. Due to a hectic schedule this summer

we arent offering any internships, as we feel it wouldnt be fair on

the intern. We wouldnt have the time dedicate and nurture anyone.

One graduate caught our eye, by posting us a fun self promo piece.

She obviously has read our blog and got a feel for who we are.

Jodie Atkins from University of Gloucester sent us a boxed,

handwritten letter with a tiny red converse shoe and a small

printed booklet with images of the chuck taylor and our website!

Now a number of things that we like here.

1. Handwritten (in legible handwriting) letter

2. Cardboard box secured with twine

3. Tiny red chuck taylor boot

So very big respect to Jodie, and if we were able to house

interns this year, she would be first on the list!! Check out

her blog here. And here are a couple of pics of what she

sent to us.

All other students out there, Jodie has raised the bar and

if you want to gain attention from Creative Directors in

agencies, you should take a leaf from her book!

(but dont copy, thats not cool!)

1810 New Site

Heres the story, about 3 years ago, we set up the brand id and website

for long term client, The 1810 Company and have been producing their

marketing collateral eversince. However technology moves on and

product ranges outgrow the existing site. So following a month of

blood, sweat and coding we are pleased to announce the launch

of the new site.

The new site is much more product focussed and is easy to navigate

through the product range. With a CMS for the news and product

sections and client login areas with trade pricing and marketing

downloads - we and the client are extremely happy with the result

10 Bears Installation

A couple of weeks ago we were invited to the launch of 10 Bears
first, post university commission at the Royal Othorpedic Hospital
in Brum. We had a great night and it was very well attended, even
by a minor local celeb!! Here are a few shots of 10 bears signature
artwork. All the designs are bespoke to various individuals from

the hospital, based on a q & a session.
