We've just completed our first campaign for Jewel and Esk College including their first tv ad (and rumour has it, a first for any Edinburgh college). And we're delighted to report that everything went smoothly despite the fact that we shot the 30 second tv ad downstairs in Freakworks' studio whilst simultaneously shooting a print campaign upstairs in the studio of photographer Richard Mountney. Why? Because our film and print starred actual students and as is the way with advertising we needed them to be in two places at once. So a very big thank you to the students who we cast; the first year over-achiever who wrote the music for the tv and radio campaign; the tutors for supervising everything; our client Moira for giving us the opportunity; everyone at Freakworks for a fantastic job done including Hamish who directed the whole thing with a very clever camera he and Gavin built themselves (which creates the look of film but is actually tape); Richard who photographed everything with his usual aplomb; and let's not forget the one and only Tim Maguire who shot "the making of" film.
You can see the ad very soon in the "our work" section. Can't wait? Watch the "making of" film in full on Jewel and Esk's website or watch a cut down version and check out some behind the scenes stills on our lovely new flickr site.
