We turned part of our Sheffield offices into a working film set to create content for The Rehearsal Room
We’re currently working with Sheffield Theatres to engage non-traditional audiences in theatre productions.
We’re creating The Rehearsal Room to promote plays before, during and after performances. Potential theatre-goers will be able to use this virtual space to find out how plays are produced. The site’s content will be filmed here at The Workshop: we’re currently building a set in our offices. Users will also be able to explore the work of Sheffield Theatres through video, photos and interactive elements and add their own contributions.
Our design work had to illustrate the thinking behind both collections, but still work as a single suite of materials.
The Workshop has worked with John Smedley for almost 20 years.
Recently they asked us to design and produce press materials and sales team tools for their Autumn/Winter 2010 menswear and womenswear collections. We began by spending some quality time with their design team to understand the thinking behind each collection.
That time helped us draw on the ethos behind the knitwear: layering. For both collections, we produced a spiral-bound presenter featuring fashion photography of the key pieces and sample fabric swatches.
Our interactive games bring the relationship between animals and plants to life
The Royal Institution is dedicated to connecting people with the world of science through research and events. We’ve been working with them for the last five years to support their annual Christmas lectures which have been going since 1825.
The events are filmed every year and broadcast on UK television. To support them, we’ve designed a series of interactive games, which are now live over at the Christmas lectures site. We’re also producing a DVD that will be sent to around 2,500 secondary schools across the UK in the New Year.
The idea is to send aid to developing countries in specially shaped AidPods that slot nicely into crates of Coca Cola (whose distribution network happens to be more wide-reaching than any aid or health organisation).
Transported inside each AidPod will be health and hygiene products, including rehydration salts, vitamin tablets and condoms.
Morrisons' Talent guide forms part of our consultancy work with their HR department
We’ve worked with Morrisons for more than three years now. In that time The Workshop has created internal marketing campaigns, promotional materials and digital products. We’ve provided design, copywriting and technical services – the whole caboodle!
This autumn, we’ve been providing communications consultancy, helping the company’s directors and company communications team reach out and speak to employees across the UK.
This blog is the first part of our latest website, which we're currently building. Feel free to pop back in time and take a look at our previous site too.
