Game set and match

It's not news that gaming is now a serious competitor in the revenue stakes to movies - it's also not news that brands want to get involved in product placement in both.

We are about to launch a dedicated product placement/brand integration service here at The Big Shot and we will be advising brands on how to get the best from integrating into big budget gaming and movie titles. This will include not just the main feature but lots of associated content placement and marketing opportunities.
I'm not sure where product placement belongs in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 but I do know that as trailers go this is as exciting and whistle whetting as it gets!

Phew!! That was close!

Well maybe not that close - still any excuse to find content that refers to the end of the world!

The Big Shot went to the Wall!

Well some of us went last Tuesday and saw Roger Waters give an amazing show full of incredible content (trying to keep the thread going here) and we were  blown away by the appearance of David Gilmore on top of the Wall - the first time this has been played in London for over thirty years.

It was very emotional as you'll see by this grainy mobile footage of most of the second solo of comfortably numb.

We've worked with Mr. Waters and guest drummer Nick Mason - producing Highclere Rocks in which they helped form a super group - we were happier to see them than they were to see us we're sure!

Check the exploding wall bit - amazing!!

We're moving!!

We are in final preparations for our move to our new place. 

Its a bit of a madhouse here with boxes, packing and odd mementoes littering the floor as we wave goodbye to beautiful Fitzroy Square but say hello to the fashion district of Market Place and that little bit closer to the temptations of SOHO.

Oh and we've just updated our website with some more case studies if you'd care to have a look!

See you soon

It's all worthwhile

How do you get your message across to teenagers? How do you get your message across if you know they don't want to hear it, don't think its relevant, don't think they will ever need the advice your giving.

I don't know for sure but I'm pretty certain that if you do something like this it might just work.

The creation of 'worthy' films is a mine field of the over schmaltzy and misdirected but this is a fantastic example of compelling message delivered with a light touch and a hammer blow.

I challenge you not to tingle.....

The web is what you make it..

In this case a very sickly sweet scrap book!
