All smiles at The Message

A big thanks to Ellie, who spent the last couple of weeks with The Message on work experience. She managed to get involved in all sorts of stuff - from creating Top Gear themed mood boards to designing her own range of legwear (well, she designed the packs for them at least).

When she said her goodbyes on Friday, Ellie handed us this wonderful sketch as a farewell gift. If you know a few of here, you probably won't have too much trouble picking out who's who.

Havaianas plinth is anything but a flop

Our friends over at Havaianas UK threw this challenge at us a couple of weeks back - building a plinth to be used in Schuch's Oxford Street store to help the customising of people's Havaianas footwear. We even threw in a few colour-changing LED lights for a bit of added drama.

Needless to say that both Havaianas and Schuch's were delighted, with pair after pair of their spruced-up flip flops flying off the shelves.

Promotional video for Chartwell

Having entered and won our 'Win a free video' competition back in December, here's the 90-second promo we recently produced for Chartwell Prestige Accident Repair, based on Pride Park in Derby.

Ice Ice Baby

Convincing toddlers to learn to ice-skate is easy! Well, it is if you’ve got a beautifully-designed ‘look what I can do’ postcard for them to record their on-the-ice progress. Another creative brief done and dusted by The Message, this time for the National Ice Centre over in Nottingham.
