Calamity Dan


November 26th, 2008 by Rachel

For those of you who don’t know our accident prone Director it might strike you as odd and slightly cold hearted that, having learnt of a fateful incident on the 21st October involving well, a motorbike, some mints, an ill-timed slip and a subsequent leg wound the length of the channel tunnel that this particular piece of artwork was rapidly making progress around the office; its progress marked by a mexican wave type cackle. 

Of course the culprits, being both the artist and the general staff who found the incident so amusing would beg you to consider that in the past 12 months alone Dan has also managed to chop off the tips of two fingers with a lawn mower (the most painful place apart from a laceration through the stomach don’t you know) as well as numerous bumps and scratches around the office, lacerating himself on carpets and such like.  Furthermore I have it from the illfated chap himself that at home, ‘if a limb isn’t hanging off they’re not interested.’  So, what can we say….we’re only human.  And you have to admit that the design showed initiative, creative flair and quick thinking, everything you would want in an effective design agency ;-)

Bangon Success!


November 24th, 2008 by Rachel

And so after months of planning, weeks of fretting and an afternoon of absolute mayhem SN were ready to present Bangon08 to the world or at least a small part of Manchester (same difference).

The evening turned out to be eventful, a few revellers were a little worse for wear and a certain office manager had a dance off with her fiance to truly top the evening off in style but despite these images burning into our retinas we are proud to announce that the night was ultimately a huge success.

The venue was great, the bands were fabulous and the atmosphere was like a massive hug….although obviously I mean the rocky type….or something.  Everyone seemed to have a fantastic night and we just want to say a MASSIVE thank you (Oscar stylee) to The Underclass, The Score & 1913 who, although a fair way from being true gentleman did exactly what they said on the tin: entertained, looked pretty and played some bloody good tunes….enjoyed by all and very good sports to boot.

Every Can Counts identity

Recycle bin at Liverpool John Moores

We have recently been involved in the launch of ‘Every Can Counts’, a drinks can recycling initiative aimed at increasing awareness and action in the workplace. Having been chosen to do the branding, website and promotional materials for this project we have learnt recently that early feedback from the initiative has been very positive.  We have also since learnt that Every Can Counts have been approached by a number of high profile potential clients so would like to offer our congratulations, as well as feeling a little bit pleased with ourselves :-)

If you would like to find out more about ECC or even better would like to find out how to implement the scheme into your place of work visit  www.everycancounts.co.uk for more information.
