Bournemouth FC's new sponsor MSP Capital required a number of digital assets and through Simon Warren Creative we supplied the pitch-side animations for live matches.
As part of the sponsorship package, MSP Capital could also brand in-game pitch-side banners on the online game Football Manager.
With matches being played in front of empty stadiums the normal crowds wouldn't see the branding and messaging from the terraces but only on screen. This made it important for maximum coverage to make sure branding was on show constantly to make sure it was in shot easily. So it was a balancing act between too much animation and not enough branding and just sticking multiple logos around the pitch. This is the first one of these we've put together - it was fun and delivered on time and on budget.
Cheers Simon for including us in this project.

This is the second project that we've worked on with the Environment Agency. After a successful set of illustrations were created for the Pevensey Bay to Eastbourne Coastal Management Scheme, we were approached by project lead, Emily Webster, regarding the proposed sea defence improvements for Sandown and Yaverland. Emily and the team required two main illustrations and several cameos. These would be supplied to their design team to create public consultation material - posters, online assets and other communication assets.

Recently our client, the IOW Group, was looking to expand the number of partners they deal with to help promote and sell their products. They asked us to look into marketing assets to support this activity. There are several issues with partner programs. Businesses can waste a lot of time with prospective partners only to find that they aren’t suitable. This can be for a number of reasons: they aren’t established, they promise the world but don’t have the staff or funding to provide the required support for installation and support for the products, or in real terms, they simply aren’t motivated enough to sell the product. So, the process had to promote the new program and be upfront about the requirements necessary to become a partner.
