UPC Shoot...

Another week another eventful few days in the life of myself and cherish. Thursday was the first TV shoot for cherish, a big day in proving that we have credibility in "traditional media" as well as the many other forms of media we are already leveraging in our campaigns. The shoot is for UPC in The Netherlands and is a concept we created to promote safe use of the internet for teens in Holland. It integrates with an online resource to advise teens on how they can avoid getting in trouble.

We are working as a partner to Solid Ground in this campaign, a significant player in the PR world in Amsterdam and thanks have to go to CEO Peggy de Lange for having the faith in cherish to get us involved.

The shoot itself went very smoothly, other than the inevitable clashes between large ego's and creative minds (erm...that would be me and the director then!) but the result is going to be great and that's the most important thing. The biggest achievement of the day was getting good weather to shoot at all, the only sunny day in weeks of absolute crap in The Netherlands...Budapest feels a long time ago!

Also we saw the launch of Niels Broekhof's career as the Stunt Pervert, fantastic effort Niels!

The spot will be on TMF in The Netherlands (a youth focussed Dutch MTV) 4 times a day for at least a month and you can see further pics of the day by clicking the link to cherish photo's on the right of this page.
