#MWLive2013 is proving to be a source of inspiration for my creative team and I (as well as good booth traffic on our stand B119). We loved these badge ribbons from the folks at @Intent_H_Q and have suggested to Adrian and Russ that they might like to use something similar for some of their events. […]

Shape Inspiration In A Book (of shapes)

Saturday, May 18th, 2013

Alex Hughes

I know from forceful experience (I am speaking of course, of this respected institution’s editor in chief, who hammered home to all speakers EXACTLY what was required from them when presenting last week), that one of the aims of Video Walls Unplugged (and indeed all Thought Leadership Summits going forward) was to foster creative thinking, […]

Amigo’s New Brand Identity

Friday, May 17th, 2013

Alex Hughes

Today sees the roll out of Amigo’s new brand identity including the launch of a new website. Over the past few months we have been doing some naval gazing and have re-designed our brand and associated collateral.

ChalkboxTV Spotted In North London

Wednesday, May 8th, 2013

Alex Hughes

‘How The ‘L’ Did That Get There?’ I wrote awhile back and today our very own ChalkboxTV arrived at our offices in North London … As I mentioned before, ChalkboxTV has not (yet) been certified for use in the UK so our Technical Director will need to think about the HDMI input, and the power […]

ChalkboxTV. How The ‘L’ Did That Get There?

We hadn’t played with L shape graphics for a while (usually the domain of the music provider to pubs, clubs and bars) but with the imminent arrival of a ChalkboxTV in our office we are back in the groove of creating some exciting content in another ‘non-usual’ shape†. We’ve been excited about some of the […]

Insert System Disk And Press Enter

Tuesday, February 5th, 2013

Alex Hughes

The Cabvision screen – errr who knew they were still about, Ed., is telling me to “insert system disk and press enter”… I knew I should have taken a Verifone Media Taxi this morning. On route from Paddington to my office.

The MegaPixel Summit And MegaPixel Content

Monday, January 21st, 2013

Alex Hughes

Exactly a week today I will already have taken the very early flight from Cardiff International Airport to Amsterdam and be sitting in the RAI’s Amsterdam Congress Centre (First Floor / Room G102) waiting for the first ever #ISE2013 MegaPixel Summit to kick off. Whilst I have a slight reservation that during the day there […]
