video-production-web-design-2

What’s your Vision for 2010? New customers? Keeping existing customers? New products? New services?

Whatever your organisation’s goals, you may need a helping hand turning your vision into reality.

Maybe we can help you? We look at things creatively. We think audiences react better to creative ideas.

We’ve recently helped:

BNP Paribas, the 5th largest worldwide bank, document the climate change conference event in Copenhagen, interviewing Connie Hedegaard, Danish Climate and Energy Minister.

Everest, Britain’s favourite home improvement company, to train their sales teams with a seres of shows featuring ‘I Own Britain’s Best Home’ presenter, Michael Holmes. ‘Solar Panels’ the first show in the series was nominated for a Royal Television Society Award.

The Care Quality Commission, the independent regulator of health and social care in England, deliver a suite of training and promotional films for the annual Count Me In census. Filmed on location across the UK.

HomeServe, the nation’s home emergency and repair service, tell the story of their FTSE 250 company to investors and analysts, interviewing staff in Madrid, Lyon, New York and Miami.

Balfour Beatty’s plant and fleet division deliver a new public facing website where you can build your own construction site. It’s a great way to get information about the company’s services in front of its customers, there’s even real building site sounds if you turn your speakers on.

Kleeneze, the friendly face of Home Shopping, give their public website a facelift. Built entirely using WordPress, an open source blog publishing and content management application, the site is designed to be updated and added to entirely in-house.

Hong Kong Revealed

Cathay Pacific, Travel 2 and Hong Kong Tourism Board present, Hong Kong Revealed.

In a strange twist, this innovative sales incentive meant that spending time with the iceni team was the reward. Or maybe it was the luxury trip to one of the world’s top destinations, to stay in one of the world’s top hotels and star in a film produced by iceni. Whichever way you look at it, the result is a great programme, a competition website, and a campaign that will get talked about for a long time to come.

The client commented,

‘When we decided to produce a travelogue presented by travel agents, many got skeptical and wondered how the film would turn out.

ICENI’s ‘Hong Kong Revealed’ took everyone by surprise.

ICENI has been excellent in understanding the brief and undertaking research. They definitely understood the essence of the project…’

Customer Testimonial

davio-hk-blog

One of our valued customers from the Hong Kong Tourism Board sent over this testimonial yesterday:

‘When we decided to produce a travelogue presented by travel agents, many got skeptical and wondered how the film would turn out.

ICENI’s ‘Hong Kong Revealed’ took everyone by surprise.

ICENI has been excellent in understanding the brief and undertaking research. They definitely understood the essence of the project. During filming in Hong Kong, they worked exceptionally hard and were so experienced that everyone was put at ease, despite a hectic schedule.

Because of the quality of the film, Cathay Pacific and Travel 2 have invested further in the campaign to create online elements. Once again, ICENI proved to be a dedicated and reliable supplier.

We would work with them again on future projects.’

The film launches on July 1st - watch this space for clips.
