Welcome to the official Book of the Night of the 2011 BIMA Awards. Now in its 27th year the BIMA Awards is the world’s longest running interactive awards ceremony, consistently setting the benchmark of digital excellence for longer than many in our industry have been alive. It is testament to the talent of the people working in our sector that even when they are faced with challenging market conditions, once again the bar has been raised. The hundreds of entries from agencies and brands across the length and breadth of the country is further proof that Britain is a world leader and that we are ideally positioned to export these services to drive growth benefitting not just our sector, but the country as a whole. As a result, we have a record number of Highly Commended entries. Commiserations to those who lost out by a whisker – you may have been beaten this year but I know from personal experience this will only sharpen your hunger. Creativity, effectiveness and innovation are the watchwords of the Awards and we’re proud to have support from sponsors including DediPower, Digital Gurus and Microsoft who reflect these values. My sincere thanks, along with the appreciation of the entire BIMA executive, goes out to them. Huge credit must also go to the team behind the Awards. Special thanks to our judging panel of 50 agency stars, client-side experts, industry commentators and academics. I wish also to extend my personal thanks to Jim Angell and his team at Swim Productions for putting on one hell of an awards party on 10 November. We tasked him with making the BIMAs the best night in the digital calendar and he knocked this out of the park. As you flip through this book and think about the year ahead, I hope you will take inspiration from the creative excellence on display and let it give you the confidence to continue to drive Britain’s world-class interactive sector. Congratulations to the winners and good luck to all for 2012.

Justin Cooke Chair BIMA

“...take inspiration from the creative excellence on display and let it give you the confidence to continue to drive Britain’s world-class interactive sector.”

Judging the BIMA Awards is no easy task, requiring days of online judging and attendance at a gruelling final arbitration session – yet the names set out below are a mini who’s who of the digital industry. Connect the dots and the level of respect for the BIMAs becomes apparent. We’re proud to have headed up the panel this year and extend our thanks to the judges for their level-headed impartiality and commitment to finding the best of digital Britain. Overseeing the process has given us a unique view of the amount of effort put in – both from the judges and the entrants. Special thanks to our group chairs who worked alongside us to ensure the process was fair and rigorous: David Brear, Jane Savage, Jane Burton, Mike Nutley, Adam Graham, Louise Brown and Tom Reding. We take our hats off to everyone involved.

Metropolitan Police: Who Killed Deon? AMV BBDO www.facebook.com/whokilleddeon Targeted at youths on the periphery of crime, Who Killed Deon? is designed to publicise a complicated, but increasingly used law known as Joint Enterprise. Joint Enterprise enables those involved on the edge of a criminal act to be jointly prosecuted, and AMV BBDO chose Facebook as the perfect platform to remind people that crime is BAD. Working with the Metropolitan Police, AMV BBDO created a fictitious whodunnit. Via the Facebook page you can watch a series of videos, with each one focussing on the murder of Deon from the perspective of a different protagonist. There are six suspects - all involved in the murder in some way - and through their stories you discover that presence, knowledge, and direct action can all have very serious ramifications. The campaign achieved more than 40,000 likes on Facebook.

Agency of the Year winner Profero

www.profero.com Having taken home awards in four of this year’s categories - ‘Community’, ‘Automotive’, ‘Outdoor & Installation’ and ‘Integrated Campaign’ - one agency stood head and shoulders above the competition, and we’re delighted to announce that the prestigious prize of Agency of the Year goes to Profero. Founded by Wayne Arnold in 1998, Profero is no stranger to success, and the BIMA Agency of the Year award marks an amazing 12 months for the team. With shortlisted campaigns for ASOS, M&S, and MINI, Profero highlighted a breadth of expertise across multiple projects. From developing a new ecommerce platform in the ASOS Marketplace, to producing the integrated marketing for the new MINI Countryman, Profero managed to combine innovative campaigns which yielded fantastic results for its clients.

Mini World Record Attempt Profero www.vimeo.com/17655802 With the launch of the Countryman - a new, larger MINI model - Profero was tasked with retaining the ‘essence of MINI’, whilst promoting the fact that this was the biggest model to date. Profero chose to put ‘How many people can you fit in a MINI?’ at the heart of its campaign, and the MINI World Record Attempt was born. In shopping centres and train terminals in eight major cities across the UK, life-size fibreglass replicas of the new Countryman were installed. Profero then invited people to create video footage of themselves in onsite capture booths, which was then displayed on the windows of the cars (giving the impression people were rammed inside them!). Footage could also be shared via Facebook and Twitter, and by the end of the campaign 10,450 people had fit in the Countryman - that must be a record!

Recruitment in 2012 The market this year has evolved albeit forcibly in response to the aftermath of that financial mess no one quite understands or wants to talk about.

The digital market has grown up in this sense.

Ultimately it boils down to some very simple principles.

They develop the sort of thinking and work that we recognise as possessing that unmistakeable stroke of genius. We know it sets that agency apart from the competition and we know that it will deliver in terms of commercial effectiveness for the client. Let’s not forget that in a landscape where consumers are bombarded by a staggering number of commercial messages, if an advertiser can entertain, be relevant, interesting or useful, there is still a huge potential to change and influence behaviour. With technology effecting change at breakneck speed, we are living in hugely exciting times and harnessed correctly, these advances mean that there are more ways than ever to “create creative value.”

www.itunes.apple.com/app/ heineken-star-player Engaging the growing number of multi-screen consumers isn’t easy. These suckers don’t just watch TV, they want to do other sh*t at the same time! However, in the Star Player app, AKQA enabled Heineken to marry its sponsorship of UEFA Champions League football with a real-time app, which users can play via iPhone or Facebook as they enjoy live games. Star Player creates a social TV game experience, inviting users to anticipate the outcome of events in a live football match in real time. With points being awarded if you guess correctly, it’s a great way to compete against friends. Star Player has been a huge success, and has now spanned two seasons of Champions League football.

The Winner The Desperados Experience MediaMonks www.youtube.com/user/desperados A YouTube takeover is still a brilliant way to engage with your target audience, and - in the case of The Desperados Experience - can be hugely effective. The Desperados Experience isn’t just a YouTube takeover, though; it’s an interactive YouTube takeover, which also manages to seamlessly integrate Facebook. Boom! Entering a party in full swing, MediaMonks puts the user in a firstperson scenario, inviting them to progress to the next stage of the party by interacting with the volume slider, video scrubber and expand button. Facebook Connect is employed to introduce pictures of friends to the video as it plays out, with a quirky ‘reveal’ that has helped this campaign surpass 2.4 million views to date.

One of the grandest projects amongst this year’s finalists, Your Paintings is a BBC website that aims to showcase the UK’s national collection of oil paintings, the stories behind them, and also display where you can see them in the flesh. In partnership with the Public Catalogue Foundation, Your Paintings was launched as part of the BBC's ‘Art Revealed’ season. And with around 200,000 paintings to archive, the tally currently stands at 77,000, with the project expected to reach completion by 2012. The site includes celebrity video tours, offers you the chance to search by location, and - thanks to a tagging project, implemented with the help of the general public - there’s also an extensive keyword search.

With the launch of the Countryman - a new, larger MINI model Profero was tasked with retaining the ‘essence of MINI’, whilst promoting the fact that this was the biggest model to date.

MyFarm Public Zone

www.haystackonline.com Haystack Online was launched as a destination site for marketers looking for the right agency, and for agencies that want to extend their reach beyond Google and static listings sites. Once agencies sign up to Haystack Online they can add campaigns via a custom-built CMS tool from Solid State Group. Agencies can choose from a selection of custom-built templates that offer flexibility, but also retain a consistent aesthetic across the site. Visitors can then search by campaign, agency, and can also search agencies via size, experience, and speciality. The front page pushes a number of ‘hero' campaigns - mixed in with news - and changes on each refresh, selecting work from the Haystack Online database. Particular effort was taken to ensure the site works well across numerous platforms.

www.my-farm.org.uk Described by the National Trust as an ‘online experiment in farming and food production’, MyFarm is an innovative, web-based project that - for £30 - gives virtual ‘farmers’ the opportunity to become directly involved in the real-world operation of a working farm (but without the sticky bits). The National Trust farm is on the Wimpole Estate, near Royston in Cambridgeshire, and ‘farmers’ get a say in how crops are managed, the breeds of animal kept on the farm, and the investment in new facilities and machinery. All subscription money goes back into the running of the site, and ‘farmers’ get access to discussion and voting around major decisions, can view webcams of the farm’s day-to-day running, and can also visit the estate to see how their decisions are affecting the farm.

Aimed at fashion literate 16-34 year olds, the ASOS site currently attracts over 13 million unique visitors a month and - as of March 2011 had 3.0 million active customers from a whopping 160 countries. That’s a passion for fashion! However, despite boasting 50,000 branded product lines, and 1,500 new product lines being introduced each week, ASOS was keen to move the site from a retail destination to a “venue”, where buyers and sellers of fashion could come together to trade. Working with ASOS, Profero developed the ASOS Marketplace, a ‘global fashion democracy’, where sellers could expose their product lines via the ASOS platform, and ASOS could extend its line further, whilst exposing new talent. Thousands of new sellers are now taking advantage of this new and exciting marketplace.

It’s not often that you come across a game that stops you in your tracks, but that’s exactly what AMV BBDO managed to achieve with The Nightjar, an iPhone game for Wrigley’s new 5 gum. Completely eschewing video, AMV BBDO employed the use of - get this - 3D binaural sound technology in smartphones, to create an immersive experience that played on the “Stimulate your Senses” tag line of Wrigley’s new brand of gum. Players are prompted to ‘see with your ears’, as you blindly navigate your way around an abandoned spaceship; a lone guide (voice acted by Benedict Cumberbatch) being the only thing between you and alien annihilation. The game was the keystone in a wider multimedia campaign, which also incorporated Twitter and the creation of five limited edition posters – aping a traditional sci-fi movie release.

Given the current state of energy provision in the UK, saving power and money is a pertinent issue for many families. With this in mind, Energy Fit from E.ON is an online campaign that enables users to expose power usage, and outline where energy can be saved. Users take a survey, fill in details about their home and circumstances, and get to view results via a bespoke dashboard that presents a personal EFI (Energy Fit Indicator). The survey has enabled E.ON to build up a huge repository of energy consumption info in the UK, and through the Energy Fit program E.ON customers have already saved enough energy to power over 7,000 3bed homes for a year.

Delivered monthly to Virgin Atlantic’s Flying Club members in UK, US, and EU markets - and quarterly to members elsewhere - the Well Red newsletter is delivered to more than a million people worldwide. Well Red provides Flying Club members with informative and valuable content ranging from Virgin Atlantic news and destination features, to exclusive Flying Club benefits and special offers. With such a diverse membership, gyro created a series of templates that could work across different territories. Within each of these markets, the newsletter was also segmented into targeted audience groups, enabling Virgin Atlantic to increase effectiveness via personalisation. And the results were outstanding. ROI and revenue were significantly improved, and the campaign has achieved unparalleled engagement.

At the heart of Red Bull’s first on-pack promotion is a game that manages to hold its own in the competitive world of the iOS App Store: Red Bull Kart Fighter. Codes were placed on 30 million cans and then customers were invited to play the Red Bull Kart Fighter game (either online, or via their iPhone) to be in with a chance of winning tickets to an exclusive Red Bull event - with can codes also unlocking credits for in-game upgrades. The app quickly raced its way to the top of the app chart - spending three weeks in the top 10 - and the campaign culminated in 15,000 people descending on Cardiff Bay to see the motorsport extravaganza that is Red Bull Speed Jam!

Not surprisingly, the banking sector is going through an awful time in the court of public opinion, a scenario that doesn’t look like changing any time soon. Consequently, the UK’s banks have all undertaken major campaigns to try and win back trust and custom - none more so than Lloyds TSB. Using the popular Lloyds World to drive its latest campaign, Saint@RKCR/Y&R provided people with the tools - via the Lloyds site and Facebook page - to create their own likeness, which they could then share, with the chance of their avatar appearing in the next TV ad from Lloyds TSB. In total more than 150,000 Me’s were eventually created, and - most rewardingly - over 65,000 Likes were accrued on Facebook.

Who Killed Deon? AMV BBDO

www.facebook.com/whokilleddeon

Helping 14-19 year olds make sense of death outside of a religious context might not sound like the easiest brief but - in the online game The End - Preloaded has managed to do it via a heady mix of humour, intelligence, and bags of style. In this Flash-based game you guide your character - which can be customised in appearance - through a series of challenges. Find ‘death objects’, answer questions about your beliefs, and help distinguish where you sit on subjects such as death and science (from Aristotle to Kant). Part of Channel 4 Education’s remit to help young people develop life skills, The End manages to tackle weighty subjects in an irreverent, and always entertaining manner.

Targeted at youths on the periphery of crime, Who Killed Deon? is designed to publicise a complicated, but increasingly used law known as Joint Enterprise. Joint Enterprise enables those involved on the edge of a criminal act to be jointly prosecuted, and AMV BBDO chose Facebook as the perfect platform to remind people that crime is BAD. Working with the Metropolitan Police, AMV BBDO created a fictitious whodunnit.

In 2010 Nuffield Trust - the independent healthcare think tank approached Torchbox to redevelop its website, and provide a platform for UK-based and international health specialists to debate and promote ideas. Built on the open source Drupal CMS, the new site manages to present a wealth of healthcare information to visitors of the Nuffield Trust website, whilst also bringing some ‘bling’ to proceedings in the shape of interactive charts, maps, slideshows and video presentations. Torchbox has done a brilliant job of presenting serious, health-related information in an accessible and engaging way, making it easier than ever for people to access and contribute to this growing community of healthcare professionals.

www.veinteractive.com Shopping cart abandonment is one of the biggest issues affecting ecommerce providers around the world but now, thanks to VeCapture and VeContact, there’s a way for merchants to recover and convert abandoned transactions. According to Forrester Research 88% of online transactions are abandoned, but with VeCapture (a data capture tool) and VeContact (a mailing package), merchants are able to track, contact, and convert shoppers who ditched their baskets. Some simple JavaScript does all the tracking, and - following the identification of a lost shopper - a branded email is sent out, which results in a 68% better chance of conversion. VeCapture is easy for merchants to implement on their sites, and Ve Interactive’s clients are enjoying conversions as high as 80%.

Matt Stafford was in a tricky situation. Already employed at an agency, he was getting itchy feet, and wanted to create a web-based campaign that would showcase his talent to creative directors from leading agencies, hopefully leading to him getting hired. But how to do it without getting fired from his current job? Matt created an alter ego, ‘Miguel Jackson’, who - via The Creative Relocation Program - contacted creative directors via anonymous video messages, where he gave them one chance to contact him via Skype (Matt would remain disguised behind a balaclava until he received a job offer). Seven out of nine creative directors responded, one of whom hired him on the spot whilst he was still wearing his balaclava. That’s how you get yourself noticed!

Engaging the growing number of multi-screen consumers isn’t easy. These suckers don’t just watch TV, they want to do other sh*t at the same time! However, in the Star Player app, AKQA enabled Heineken to marry its sponsorship of UEFA Champions League football with a real-time app, which users can play via iPhone or Facebook as they enjoy live games. Star Player creates a social TV game experience, inviting users to anticipate the outcome of events in a live football match in real time. With points being awarded if you guess correctly, it’s a great way to compete against friends. Star Player has been a huge success, and has now spanned two seasons of Champions League football.

Vodafone - Evolution on Mobile TBG Digital

vwww.vimeo.com/23384195 Students Matei Curtasu and Annamaria Zollet envisaged a new way for music fans to share their tastes with the world. The concept: DSLTAG, a Diesel/Grooveshark collaboration, which makes music playlists wearable and shareable. Sign into the DSLTAG site, create your playlist, choose your shirt style and colour, and then design a unique QR code that contains your playlist, and appears on the front of your shirt. Anyone spotting a DSLTAG shirt can then point a camera-enabled smartphone at it, and see the playlist presented via augmented reality (which can then be played and ranked). Judges were impressed with the scope of this prospective campaign, and the integration of emerging techniques such as printing on demand, augmented reality and QR codes.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=883UlMNOuX4 To promote the launch of the new Vodafone YouTube channel, the world’s largest mobile telecoms company approached TBG to help kick off the channel in style. TBG chose 3D projection mapping, a technique often used to gain attention, but approached it with a new, lo-fi spin: The Evolution on Mobile would be the smallest ever 3D projection mapping project. Projecting onto various handsets - from the most rudimentary ‘bricks’, to modern smartphones - the video charted the development of mobile tech through the last three decades. The video has had more than 700k views, topped the YouTube technology chart, and was trending on Twitter for three days. Traditional media also featured the campaign, with stories in Time magazine, The Guardian, and many more on and offline publications.

Thursday 22 November 2012

www.sexperienceuk.channel4.com How do you best present a survey of the nation’s sexual statistics and preferences? Why, with an interactive infographic, of course! The Sexperience 1000 campaign used data from 1000 individuals that took part in the ‘Great British Sex Survey’, which was conducted by Ipsos MORI for Channel 4 in 2011. Mint Digital took the information from the survey, and split it into a series of top-level categories, focussing on areas such as sexual preference and background. Each respondent is represented by an icon, which you can also hover over to find out more info (you can even follow them through the survey). A set of filters also provides the opportunity to view results by age, location, and even which supermarket people shop at! Addictive stuff.
