Happy New Year!

OK, it's slightly later than planned, but Happy New Year to all of our esteemed clients and colleagues... we hope it's a productive, exciting and positive time for you all.

We're almost through January and we've got some lovely news....

We'd like to welcome our new chap Tom Greenidge to the No Magnolia fold. He's our new camera & edit assistant and he'll be working alongside the rest of the NM team on the filming and editing side of things.

He supports Reading FC, enjoys Lamb Tikka Masala, is perplexed by onions and looks unnervingly like tennis-bloke Novak Djokovic... he'll be on a shoot near you in the near future!

We're working on some quite exciting projects at the moment that we'll tell you about soon, but right now we can't let the cat out of the bag... poor cat.

News update coming soon!

Brand New Video!

A really busy October saw us working on a number of events. One of the most interesting was the Brand Licensing Europe event at Olympia.

Events company Advanstar asked us to create a video to help promote the show for next year, so we grabbed our cameras and popped down to Hammersmith, only to be overrun by giant costumed Peppa Pigs, Bananas in Pyjamas, Miffy, Daleks and the Cat in the Hat... a fairly surreal way to spend the day!

See for yourself!

48 Film Project time again...

...don't these things roll around fast? Seems only a short time ago that we were making a film about two people in chicken costumes, but here's our effort from this year. We had to make a musical, featuring a collector called Alistair/Alison Sanders, a brush, and the line "should we leave it like this?" in 48 hours.

World Cup Wonders

No Magnolia Productions have been working with Heineken and Will Carling to produce the online rugby series, This is the Game. Episode #3 has just gone live, and there will be an episode online each week of the Rugby World Cup. This show is shot, directed and edited by the No Magnolia team, turned around in super-quick time so that the banter is still fresh and relevant. Take a look at the latest episode below. NM

Also, here's an interview we did with Stephen Fry. We don't usually get star-struck, but he's something rather special. We've got the QI box set.

Busy Busy!

Hello folks.... It's been ages hasn't it? How have you been? We've been monumentally busy these past couple of months, working with some very famous faces on some great projects. Firstly we went over to the Isle of Wight to meet the wonderful Ellen MacArthur, to make a film about the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, her new charity which promotes the circular economy in business and education. We've also been working with rugby legend Will Carling on a new series of videos produced by Heineken called "This is the Game" - a series of webcasts over the duration of the Rugby World Cup.

Part of this involves interviews with some A-list 'slebs' such as Chris Evans, Rory McIlroy and Stephen Fry. Finally, Matt went over to Amsterdam to work with the superb ARRI team at IBC. Filming, editing and uploading product demos, and capturing Hollywood director James Cameron talking with the ARRI team about their new 3D camera developments. Phew! Let's not leave it so long next time.... speak soon! NM x
