The Meetings: Redweb
April 10th, 2011 § Leave a Comment
Admittedly this is a very late blog post as most of the professional project meetings happened a few weeks ago. After the initial meetins with Matt Desmier we were given contact infromation for five different companies; Redweb, Bright Blue Day, Salad, Thinking Juice and Clockworx.
Our first meeting was with David Burton, the directing manager of innovation at Redweb. Before the meeting, Cat George and I had ideas of creating an “Apple” style video for them originally turned onto us by Phil Beards. These were the videos:

We then showed these examples to David Burton who was keen on the idea and expressed a desire for the videos to be on the theme of “innovation” of Redweb. After being shown about the offices, we had a better understanding of the work Redweb did and their influences. We consequently began to plan a date for filming when it was suitable. David told us it was best to come in on something they called “Hack days” in which the innovation department takes two days out to work on something together producing something fresh and new using their digital media skills. We obviously jumped at the idea of filming on the these days and booked in two afternoons to get the required footage.
