Overview:
This event is a fun filled day out the office where teams compete to design and film a TV ad. This is the perfect opportunity to get the team's creative juices flowing and come up with the most entertaining television commercial that everyone will be talking about!

Format:
The day starts with each team being given a different product to promote along with all the necessary equipment to shoot a full length television advertisement. Each team will need to come up with a unique way to promote their product and may choose any style they wish. However, there is a catch; teams must film the whole thing in one go! The event finishes with everyone coming together to watch the adverts, where prizes will be awarded to teams that made the best ad!

Tasks:
Teams' need to complete the following tasks:

Roles
The first task is assigning roles and responsibilities. Each team will need a Director, Camera Operator, Props Manager, Wardrobe Manager and have Actors/Actresses.

Creative ideas
In advertising there's no such thing as a bad idea; who would have thought a man dressed in a gorilla suit playing the drums to a Phil Collins song would sell chocolate. Teams need to think of a unique way to deliver their message.

Script writing
Develop the ideas and get them on paper. 

Props and costume design
Scavenge for materials and create the ultimate set and costumes. 

Rehearsals
Practise as you'll only get one shot at filming.

Filming
Using the equipment provided teams need to film the whole advert in one shot.

Viewing
Everyone will get a chance to see the finished adverts as they will be shown on the big screen.

During the event teams' will be given the chance to earn bonus points, through completing extra challenges such as squeezing random words (from a list) into the advert.

Overview
Animate and create allows your team to become film producers for a day and produce a unique feature animation to take away. Thinking creatively promotes activity in the brain responsible for goal-directed behaviour and motivation to achieve. These creative worshops provide your team with the chance to re-discover the joys of plasticine whilst developing team work and having fun.

Format
Animate and create is a workshop which promotes creative thinking and innovative problem solving whilst being a fun and unusual day out. It is flexible so either we can give you a fun, tailored brief to follow or you can come up with your own. The aim of the workshop is to create characters out of plasticine, complete with costumes and props, and then film a feature animation using them. All of this is done using our professional resources, expertise, and readymade moulds. Working as a film crew to film the animation requires the whole team to work together, and builds skills in confidence, co-operation and communication. The relaxed and fun atmosphere also unleashes the creativity of the team. The sessions can be a half day or full and the number of plasticine characters and length of the feature animation will differ accordingly. Teams will be guided through all stages of the process of creating their own characters and will then be assisted by professional animators in order to film the feature animation. Sessions can be as relaxed or as structured as is desired. Structured team building elements can be formally incorporated in the sessions or participants can be given freedom to experiment as they wish.

Benefits

Overview:
Think you know your 'Mean Streets' better than Scorsese? Think you could do a better New York 'Taxi Driver' than De Niro? Or would you just like to sit behind a camera, scream 'cut!' at the top of your lungs at everyone in sight while having extraordinarily good looking people vie for your undivided attention? Well we can offer your group the exclusive chance to experience behind the scenes movie-making and have the chance to cut your own versions of a classic film scene, all while creating a totally unique team building experience. 

Format:  
A host will meet and greet your group at a suitable venue. Your group will divide into teams and each team will have all the necessary equipment to produce a movie scene. Each team must assign a director, camera operator, props manager, wardrobe manager, film star and extras. Each team will then have to shoot a scene from a well-known film and these efforts will be put together to create a completely unique (and hilarious) version of the film. Instructors will observe how each team works and award/deduct points accordingly contributing to the final score.

Activities:
The day will consist of the following activities:

The Shoot:
The directors and camera crew will be briefed by instructors on how long the film must last and how long to allow for shooting and they'll get tips on sound and lighting. Each team decides who will play each role and teams are allowed to film in any style they choose. The only requirement is that the scenes must be filmed in a single take, rewinding the camera is forbidden and will result in negative scoring.

The Premiere:  
After the final director has hollered 'cut!' for the last time each team's scene will be shown in order and the result is a hilarious snap-shot of a Hollywood classic. The entire group along with the host and instructors will be the premiere audience and judging will take place, Hollywood style. Awards will be presented for best costume, best actor, funniest moment, etc.

Truly Glamourous Team Building:
We think this is the perfect event for groups who are after improved communication skills as everyone will be learning new skills and have to rely on one another for a successful shoot. Everyone will have a blast seeing themselves on the silver screen and who knows, maybe you'll have some undiscovered talent in your team?  

Included:
· Event Managers
· Full Event management
· Activities and equipment
· Full equipment instruction
· Public liability insurance
· Fun prizes awarded to the winning teams

Half Day Event (3 hours)

Feedback on this event from our clients:
“I just wanted to say that the event went fantastically and if you could would you mind passing on my thanks to the team”
- PwC

“I and my partner colleagues considered the event to be a complete success, on the formal front it met with all of the objectives that we had set, but more to the point it exceeded our expectations in terms of the fun element ( one of the objectives of course) and the integration of the teams from our various offices ( another objective).

We have held an event annually for the whole of the group but I can not remember a time when I received so much positive feedback and individual thank you's from the people involved. I thought your team were very friendly and helpful and just what was required on the day and throughout I felt that as the "organiser " on site I had lots of communication and support, from you and your team.

So very many thanks from all of us, it was truly a success”

Overview:
For the budding actors and Oscar winning performers in the office this is the event for you!

‘Lights, Camera...Action!' is a creative team building day requiring teams to write, choreograph and film a short film or trailer about their organisation or create an advert, promoting a new product.

Offering plenty of jobs ‘in front of the camera' and ‘behind the scenes' this event has something for everybody.

Visual thinking and planning, leadership, creativity, time management and presentation skills will be tested on the day and you may even discover a few hidden talents amongst guests.

Format (changing slightly, depending on the size of the group):
The event starts with guests having an open discussion about entertainment and what makes an effective short film, trailer or advertisement.

The group is then split into teams (up to eight people) where each team brainstorms ideas to film. Once they've narrowed it down to a final idea, each team is required to create a storyboard, highlighting the key characters and storyline.

Throughout the event the props store will be open with a variety of high quality costumes, makeup and props. Teams will have to hone their bargaining skills and work within their film budget to get the best materials to use.

Then teams start filming, where everybody gets involved and humour is essential.

The event concludes at the Oscar ceremony, where the completed films are watched by guests and fun prizes are awarded to the best actor and actress, best director, best costume (and no doubt someone will thank their MUM!).

Activities:
Teams can choose from the following briefs (scripts, props, makeup, costumes, filming and acting will all be down to the individual teams):

On The Box
Based on a given product such as a box of tissues, teams will need to put develop a brand and put together a 30 second advertisement for their product.

Trailer
Take all the best bits of your film idea and role it in to a 30 second trailer for the new Block Buster. Action scenes, romantic comedy and cliff hanger ending all make for the perfect trailer.

Feature Film
Teams are given the basic story line of a new movie. Each team takes on a scene, which will be amalgamated to produce your companies very own short feature film, where the results are hilarious results.
