It’s been a busy few weeks at 383 and we’re pleased to announce a number of new faces who’ve joined the team. We’ve added to both the production, and client services, sides of the studio after a number of soon to be announced account wins fell in to place. There’s also a new 383 site in the pipeline over the next couple of months – stick with us during the transition, it’ll be worth the wait!
Laurie and Nick
Two new faces in client services are Laurie and Nick. Laurie has joined as our new account manager and will be working with our key retail accounts. Laurie’s previous experience includes time spent in Paris working for a worldwide magazine publisher, so she’s a great fit for fashion! Nick has come on board as our new project manager and will be handling a number of one off projects which come through the studio.
Morgan and Sam
Morgan and Sam have joined our creative team to both increase our capacity on pitch work and service existing clients. Between them the pair add a host of extra talent in to the studio, ranging from iPhone app design to motion graphics and video work.
Tom, Leon and Steve
Last, but certainly not least, are our three new developers Tom, Leon and Steve. With a growing number of large scale projects about to hit the studio the addition of three new developers in preparation has been a big help.
We also wanted to thank everyone who applied for the various positions in the past few months. We had a lot of great CVs in and were delighted there was so much interest. We expect to have a few more vacancies later in the year and so will publish these on the site as soon as details are confirmed.
Here’s a little infographic we’ve produced for Mudlark/4iP as part of their Such Tweet Sorrow project. For those who don’t know, Such Tweet Sorrow was a real time version of Romeo and Juliet played out entirely over Twitter. The project ran for 5 weeks and 383 have been doing a bit of behind the scenes monitoring to help establish the reach and impact of the performance. This infographic presents some of the main analytics in a digestible way. We captured over 3k tweets and ran them through some in-house filters we’ve been building to help enrich the basic twitter stream. It’s best viewed at full size, so give it a click to take a proper look.
A break in radio silence on the blog to tell everyone why we’ve been so busy. We’ve just launched a lovely new site we’re particularly proud of for Bullring’s Art Project ‘Life Feels Better‘. The premise of Life Feels Better is simple – to encourage video, photo and audio submissions from members of the public on the theme of ‘optimism’.
The site is a gallery space for all the submissions people send through, as well as a place to find out about all the events and activities happening at Bullring this year. Since it launched last month there have been some lovely submissions which you can browse here.
To promote the project we also shot a summery video with Ed Moore which featured a few of the artists already involved. The idea we came up with for the promo was to shoot time lapse shots of the centre to to provide a backdrop to the featured work. Fortunately we picked a nice sunny day as you can see here:
