The Wall
The launch of the new wall has been a triumph which belies (or reveals) the hard work which went into getting it there.
As a project, it was exceptionally well connected, with editorial, technical, structural, development and design working hand in hand.
As always, there have been frustrations along the way but we will debrief on this and as we develop our presentation personality,
we will come up with new and exciting ways to exploit some of the elements we always wanted to include.
From a design and development perspective, immense thanks are due to:
- Przemek Pluta for the interface and technical development – basically, everything 'clever' about it
- Harry Ward and Aaron Smillie for the design concept and build of the sequences for Immigration Week
- Phil Billmore for solving the seemingly impossible task of live data for Digital Devices in the final week
- Gareth Winter for the new ethos of story brands.
- Brent Jones and Roland West for ensuring connection and delivery.
- Mark Jones and Chris Sharpe for brand and design direction
As always, the engagement of the whole team beyond these individuals has been key; you should all take credit.
The designs for Immigration UK have been a triumph of information, presentation and collaboration, they tie in with our new visual language
and demonstrate the capabilities of storytelling when the wall is in use. It cannot be overstated that without your dedication, not just to deliver,
but to deliver exceptional creative solutions on time, we would not have made it across the line.
It's not for me to thank others, but without the dedicated editorial connection from Jamie Wood and Julie Weight
and the directorial engagement of Jon Bennett, there would be no solution here.
Development will continue over the coming weeks with web interface control and we are already generating
the next step in the visual language used on walls for next week.
