  • Really like the new Talk Talk ad

    Posted on May 24, 2011 by

    With so many boombastic TV ads doing the rounds, it’s really refreshing to see something like this mixing modern life with nostalgia. They even get away with using Unchained Melody, which is quite a feat in itself.

  • One’s life is for sharing

    Posted on April 19, 2011 by

    Have to say T Mobile’s latest Youtube ad, allowing for a few sub standard lookalikes, is pretty impressive. And approaching 6 million views already. Although the East 17 track is giving me uncomfortable teenage party flashbacks.

    The events in Japan over the last few days have made for shocking viewing, the sheer scale of the tragedy and volume of lives lost is almost impossible to comprehend.

It was a pretty intense couple of days and as a compulsive note taker I went through a few pens during the workshops. It was really interesting to get a broadcaster’s [...]

  • R.I.P John Barry

    Posted on January 31, 2011 by

His work will live long in the memory including soundtracks to the likes of Midnight Cowboy, Born Free and the scores to 11 Bond movies (the James Bond theme itself at least contractually must be credited to one Monty Norman). Barry’s [...]
