The activity took place next to Canary Wharf tube station to reach the target audience of business travellers and was centred on the theme of ‘The Land of Nod’ – highlighting how business passengers can enjoy a great night’s sleep on the airline’s overnight flights from London to New York thanks to the flat bed seat.

The ‘Zzz…’ bubbles filled the sky as a promotions team dressed in pyjamas and dressing gowns gave flyers to passers-by, offering them the chance to win two return BusinessFirst® flights to New York by logging onto www.the-land-of-nod.co.uk

More than 1,000 people have already entered the competition; with all entrants able to view an online video demonstration of what makes the flat bed seat so comfortable, including its iPod® connectivity and 15.4” LCD touch screen entertainment system.

Many amateur and professional creatives gathered with Hitachi reps to celebrate the showcase of shortlisted film, photography and music entrants from G-Technology’s Driven Creativity Competition. Also in attendance were the jury members, Grammy-award winning music producer (for Sting!), Kipper; acclaimed photographer, Tim Flach and Academy-award winning filmmaker, Scott Hillier!

We also revealed the overall winner of the competition at the reception, which is ‘The Henley Swim’ by Iain Weir. Check out the unique photograph below which captures the misty, early morning gathering of swimmers set to embark on a journey down the Henley-on-Thames river.

The exhibition is now open to the public until November 22nd, from 1pm-6pm everyday, so be sure to visit if you get the chance!

We’re organising the exhibition, which will showcase all of the awe-inspiring shortlisted film, photography and music entries from G-Technology’s Driven Creativity Competition. What’s great about the competition is it not only recognises and rewards the aesthetic qualities of creative work, but also the invention and drive that went into creating it, with some inspiring stories behind the creation of each entry.

The overall competition winner – of a grand prize of €5,000 – will also be revealed at an exclusive private view of the exhibition on November 16th, 2010; bringing together shortlisted  entrants, jury panel members, the audio, music, film and technology press, G-Technology representatives and its customers, to network and to admire all of the showcased creativity.

As developers of innovative storage solutions for those looking to push creativity beyond the limits, G-Technology’s first ever Driven Creativity Competition is a fantastic way for them to continue to support and celebrate the creative community.

Uniquely located next to St Paul’s Cathedral, the unveiling of Land Security’s biggest and most prestigious development attracted more than 20,000 visitors to the opening ceremony and received coverage on all the major news channels, including live broadcast from Sky News and a front page on the Times.

We created an exciting array of activity to kick the weekend off – including the opening ceremony, an exclusive performance from the Hoosiers, a magical family Halloween show by the House of Fairy Tales and a Handbags & Heels Exchange, in aid of Prince’s Trust. We will be continuing to deliver launch activity over the next two weeks, including a glittering VIP party, a city insights seminar held by ex-Dragon, Richard Farleigh and four sold-out GQ and Grazia fashion shows.

Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect, Jean Nouvel, One New Change offers popular fashion retailers and restaurants from top-class chefs such as Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsey. It also has one of the UK’s highest rooftop terraces, offering a wonderful new view over London. Keep your eyes open for news on how we launch the spectacular view over the next couple of weeks!

Its exhibition stand offered visitors a chance to ‘Experience Hitachi working for you’, demonstrating how they have succeeded in introducing a number of commuter and high-speed trains on time, including the super-speedy Class 395 trains.

We created brochures, print advertising, promotional items and invitations, along with graphics and an interactive presentation to incorporate onto the exhibition stand. Here are some of the designs:

Caroline Sumners, EMEA PR & Marketing Manager at HGST, said: “Our stand at IBC was a fantastic platform for us to engage with many of our current and new customers. We were able to demonstrate to visitors exactly how our full range of high quality, reliable and affordable drives support all levels of digital workflow.”

Set up and delivered by The Big Consulting and Nightingale School, the pilot scheme is for 14-19 year olds who are passionate about food to spend a year receiving hands on catering training, with the possibility of setting up a business, entering catering college or getting a job.

Russ Oliver from The Big Consulting, said: “Liquid have stepped up to partner with us to launch this pilot Schools Enterprise project through GoodstuffUK. This has the potential to help transform the lives of many young people and we’re delighted that Liquid have joined with us and other strategic partners to breathe life into this initiative, thank you!”

After a ten minute briefing – which felt far too quick for my liking – I found myself kitted up, doing my best ‘Dangerous Brian’ impersonation.  I couldn’t help but recite the Radiohead lyric from ‘Creep’ – ‘What the hell am I doing here?’

Anyway, it was too late for such questions, so with a brave half smile I was packed into a sardine tin with wings. 3,500 feet later and the plane broke through the clouds. The sun above the clouds was a beautiful sight, almost promising me that the dive was going to be fine. It took 25 minutes to reach 10,000 feet (2 miles high) and with a final check of the harness, my instructor tried to play down the fact that there was a small problem with the tightening mechanism which, of course, filled me with extreme confidence.

The door opened. It was freezing and with my legs hanging over the edge of the plane floor, I tried not to look down. Temptation got the better of me and all I could see was cloud – a wide expanse of nothingness.

After a count of three, I was out of the plane, and an immediate surreal, peaceful feeling hit me. I was falling at 120mph, wind rushing past my ears, a blurred mix of sky, cloud and rain and it was so difficult to catch my breath. I started to enjoy it. Many positive words entered my mind: amazing, fantastic, unbelievable, wow and awesome.  But unfortunately, when the parachute opened and it felt like I was suddenly shooting high into the sky at a million miles an hour, all I felt was pain, with the five minute cruise to ground seeming to take an age. My aerobic somersault at the end only heightened the pain but, hey, that was incredible!
