Featured Work
Cartoon Network's Ask the Cast
Boomerang (part of Cartoon Network) asked us to create a site for the new series of their children's TV programmes: 'My Spy Family' and 'Life with Derek'. Ask the Cast gets kids to engage with the show by posing questions to their favourite characters through video upload or self-recording via webcam.
CBS Outdoor
Bus advertising is pretty in-your-face... especially when the 155 is playing chicken with you as you cycle to work! But its effective and this microsite explains why. You can also win a cool day out if you work for an Ad agency. Our creative and flash animations went down a storm with the client! :)
Build a Band
Fancy playing on stage at the last night of Glastonbury? Sure you do Rock Star! Well head on down to Build a Band, an Audio and Video competition site we built for Youth Music, Rough Trade and BBC Blast. Oh, you need to be aged 14-18 to enter... and talented. Doh.
iFan Facebook Game
Messing about on Facebook when you should be working? Why not go the whole hog and play our new "Keepy Uppy" Facebook App? Integrated into the main Facebook login, the game tracks your high score and lets you create your own "friends" league. Good luck!
The One and Only...
We're helping bring some music and glamour to Saturday nights with our website for BBC One's new primetime talent show The One and Only... It will leave you amazed and wondering if seeing really is believing!
Independent Models
As part of the Independent Talent (formerly ICM) agency rebranding exercise, the Models microsite deserves special attention for its sleek display of the various models on their books. Give us brilliant photography and we can create real magic.
Youth Music
We're developing a nice ongoing relationship with the fabulous folk at Youth Music. Our social networking nous has allowed us to build a couple of great projects with more in the pipeline.
Job Escalator
The definitive job website. Pretty much any kind of useful functionality you can imagine was integral to this project. Users can create their own accounts and alerts, advertisers can post jobs and pay for them through the system and manage their applicants, too.
O2 Guru
O2 recruited their best customers, called them gurus and built a social networking site where they could discuss products and services. The gurus get paid for contributing and are set a series of tasks ranging from responding to forum comments to completing an online questionnaire.
Swarovski
We love working with Swarovski. We work with the fashion division which has grown in profile enormously in the time we've worked together. Initiatives such as Swarovski Fashion Rocks get worldwide attention.
Jaffa Cakes
Jaffa Cakes thought it would be funny to print a "Jaffaholics Anonymous" helpline on their boxes, but people kept calling. So we created a microsite for the addicts. The Order of the Smashing Orangey Bit, is a secret organisation for the truly enlightened. If it appeals, check it out for yourself? (you weirdo).
Teachers.TV
On tv and online, teachers.tv produce and broadcast programmes around the world for educators. They came to us because they wanted to change their clunky Windows Media player and replace it with a super sexy flash player to show programmes online.
Branston Factor
Sales Promotion, Experiential Marketing and Digital combined for a cool integrated campaign. We did the digital and people from around the UK texted pictures of themselves eating Pickled Onions from their mobiles or uploaded from their cameras to demonstrate they had the "Branston Factor".
18 Doughty Street
Online TV show with user-generated video content. We were way ahead of the game on this one, building their site and including an easy-to-use video upload tool for all of their "citizen journalists" who were able to create and upload their own news stories.
Horlicks
Yawn... settle down and get comfy with a lovely cup of Horlicks. That's what we did for Horlicks. A microsite all about sleep and Horlicks and snoozing and dreaming and generally nice fluffy stuff like that.
British Library
The British Library's most ambitious exhibition of the year required some solid thinking from one of the country's most ambitious digital agencies.
BBC Fame Academy
Tara P-T was the ultimate victor in BBC's Fame Academy in conjunction with Comic Relief. We'd like to think we did our 'bit' too by showing celebrities making idiots of themselves online.
Tiger Beer
A nice little microsite to support a sales promotion campaign developed by our good friends at Toucan. Users were able to type in a code from the bottle to see if they won a prize. Simple, yet elegantly executed.
Save The Children
As part of a campaign to try and stop baby formula advertising in the UK we designed a viral game and animation for Save the Children, in association with The National Childbirth Trust and UNICEF.
Royal Mail - Perplex City
A destination microsite for a campaign the Royal Mail ran with Mind Candy's Perplex City. The campaign ran in the Royal Mail's direct marketing magazine.
Searcy St Pancras
A new line to France, a new train station and a spanking new champagne bar, operated by Searcy. Not only did we design and build the microsite, we were also at the launch party. We like to think of it as dedication to the job.
Meet the Author
We are beginning to feel like one of the family with Meet the Author. We launched their first site back in 2004 and since then our blossoming relationship has added 2 more to the family.
eBookers
During the hours of 9 to 5, Monday to Friday for one week, eBookers gave away a pair of tickets to a different foreign destination every hour on the hour. They needed a robust back-end to do this, with a funky friendly front-end. Man, we're good.....
SAB Miller
Working with our friends at Pauffley, we produce a multiple-language CD featuring video and downloads for SAB Miller that was mailed out to all their shareholders.
BBC
From animated games, through to interactive tv and reality tv shows, our relationship with the BBC has evolved as we have.
ITV Simply the Best
Another website for another TV game show. Featuring a few games that mimicked ones from the show, it was almost like taking part from the comfort of your armchair.
Gap Careers
How we brought the recruitment for Gap to the High Street.
Novartis (Lamisil)
A multiple-language java-based site for folk wishing to banish athlete's foot for good.
NHS Giving Up Smoking
Supporting the NHS above-the-line campaign, this site was smokin' by the time we'd finished with it. (very, very poor - Ed)
ABN Amro
For the last 3 years, ABN Amro's shining new stars, have come through the rather super Graduate Recruitment site we built for them. They are ABN Amro, they were looking to attract the best graduates - what can we tell you?
Oasis
Launching Oasis' 'Don't Believe the Truth album' in the Daily Mirror with 2.7 million CDs, linking to an online Digital Rights Management tool that allowed listeners to play some of the new tracks 4 times for free. How do you do that?
Detox with Evian
We've worked on Evian campaigns for a couple of years, now: the Detox with Evian campaign that was in conjunction with the on-pack promotion and the Evian Live Young campaign which also featured TV advertising. Bringing brands to life online, it's a great job.
BBC Celebrity Scissorhands
They were both celebrities and their hands were so deft at cutting hair that they'd almost become scissors. Endemol made a TV programme about them for BBC and it raised money for charity, too. We've built the website to support the show two years in a row.
American Express
HTML emails and microsites. We've done hundreds and the funny thing is, they always have the same challenge: they need to be done yesterday. Fortunately, we're set up to be able to turn campaigns like these round in super-quick time.
College of Optometrists
Concept, illustration, design and build by Codegent resulted in an interactive, fun and educational game that gives children an insight into the realities of a career as an optometrist.
Ford
Animated HTML emails. Not recommended for absolutely everything, but in this case it worked pretty well. We animated bouncing footballs in the email as part of Ford's support of the European Cup.
Seven Squared
When Seven Publishing and Square One Publishing came together to create Seven Squared, they needed a new website. We built them a content managed site, with a pretty clever bit of 3D in flash showing a 7x7 grid of magazines.
