News
The BBC will deliver an early Christmas
present to locations in the North of England including MediaCityUK this
December with free screenings of its most eagerly-awaited festive TV shows.
Fans of Doctor Who will be able to see the
annual Christmas special before anyone else. This year’s episode will
feature Peter Capaldi as the Doctor for the last time.
The Tomorrow-based company will be
delivering a ‘fintech-first’ promotion for Standard Chartered bank.
This will see the team working alongside
its Singapore head office, to produce an integrated digital campaign,
covering a number of territories.
“This is an incredibly exciting project
for us, which will deliver true innovation in consumer mobile banking,” said Carbon Digital’s co-founder Sue
McHugh.
It’s expected to go live early next year.
BBC Creative has chosen dock10 to support
the creation of promotional content for the BBC at MediaCityUK. Working
closely with the BBC team, dock10’s post production specialists will
provide the high-end finishing, including audio, colouring and VFX
elements, utilising its extensive facilities and media services.

CBBC
Summer Social wins award
The CBBC Summer Social saw over 30,000

there were appearances from a whole host of CBBC stars and the opportunity
to get involved with meet and greets, Zorbing and even a petting zoo.
Since the event was such a success, the
team has been presented with the National Outdoor Event Association award
for Production Partnership of the Year. The award recognises “those who
have demonstrated excellence in partnership working in the delivery of an
exceptional event.”
