A different kind of Christmas!
2020. It’s not been an easy year for many of our clients, friends and family … but we really do hope that you manage to celebrate the holiday festivities with a degree of positivity for the year ahead!
 
The chicken/egg coop wish each and every one of you a Merry Christmas! 🎄 Here’s to 2021!
 
We’ve given last years card a 2020 make-over!
Creating a Virtual Tour

When our local primary school asked us to help them create some marketing collateral to promote their new addmissions drive we decided to go with a mix of traditional and online solutions.
We designed their logo and website a few years back so it was important to keep the style consistent so we used the design as our base and produced:

  • A PDF brochure for parents to download
  • An A4 Poster for local nurseries and playgroups
  • An A5 flyer for local nurseries and playgroups
  • A mesh 3m x 1m outdoor banner for their roadside gate
  • Two videos – one with a focus on the school and it’s offerings, with a voiceover by one of the staff, and the other a lovely piece with the Year Six’s talking to camera about their experiences at school!

We also did a ‘COVID safe’ mini photoshoot to get some updated shots of the kids their classrooms at break!

A really nice project to support our local community!

I hope that in the midst of everything this news is well received, and marks the start of a hopefully less turbulent time! chicken/egg, like all our winners, has demonstrated excellence, commitment, dedication even in the face of uncertainty. After overcoming such disruption, we believe more than ever, that you should be recognised!

We’re so chuffed with this award and a massive thank you to all the coop as the agency is nothing without them!

Behind the Scenes

The Thames Valley Chamber of Commerce asked us to help create a new series of videos to showcase how their members have been dealing with lockdown and what measures they’ve put in place to be able to start opening up their offices and businesses again.

We chose to call it Behind The Scences and we designed a styled intro and outro for the videos – we took the raw footage from the members and the rest is down to the chicken/egg team … Lights, camera, action …

 

 

NEW CLIENT: PERSONAL GROUP

We’ve been drafted in to help support the marketing team and look at how to to transform the sales face-to-face meetings to virtual meetings – during lockdown everything that was taken for granted on a day to day basis was completely flipped on its head and looking at how to best engage with customers employees when you couldn’t travel to see them meant a new way of thinking for the sales and marketing team.

Pulling together a ‘campaign in a box’ with promotional merchandise and a strong call to action was chicken/egg’s remit for this first piece of work with them … from desk-top gardens to teddy bears, right through to printed gazebo’s and pop-up desks … the sales team are ready for the ‘new normal’!

Helping TVCC with video interviews

During lockdown, Paul Britton, CEO of TVCC began interviewing their Business Alliance members about how they were dealing with COVID-19 and the future of business.

We were tasked with creating a dedicated video identity for these videos and we came up with the name One-To-One in Twenty.  We designed a creative ident and a template for Paul’s videos – we’ve been instrumental in the edit and upload for each of the videos in the series.

Press Inserts - still a good marketing tool!

Working with our client TMS2, we were tasked with designing a press insert to showcase and sell their Remote Tachograph Download device and solution.

We needed it to be a simple message with a focus on the key business benefits, we felt that this was best shown graphically so created a set of icon based designs.

Clean, consise and off to the printers …

Supporting Small Business

When a client asked if we could help out their friend with a press advert for their interior design business we were more than happy to offer our support.

Working with Joanna at Sabella was very easy – as an interior designer she could easily visualise what she wanted plus she had some gorgeous imagery for us to use.

Supporting small businesses is very important to us – we’re not an agency that chases big budgets, we chase passion!

 

Lockdown POS

We’ve been working with Avis Budget Group for the past five years and normally we’d be working with them on summer campaign creative – instead we’ve been flat out creating COVID-19 Point of Sale to help ensure that all customers are kept informed and safe during these completely unusual times.

From OOH 6 sheet artwork to A4 and A5 store posters the chicken/egg team were on-hand.

If you need any support during this time then we’re still working and are available for any design requirements.

Stay safe!
