Welcome to the BIMA Awards 2012 Book of the Night
On behalf of everyone at BIMA I would like to congratulate the winners of this, the 28th annual BIMA Awards and to thank everyone who entered. In a social, mobile and connected world, where trust is a leading currency, the kudos for the winners lies in part with the knowledge that BIMA has been rewarding and celebrating the best digital and interactive work since 1985. Equally, and unlike many other award programmes, the BIMAs are run by the industry for the industry, which ensures an unparalleled level of objectivity. However the pedigree and reputation of any Awards is a two-way street and it is to the increasing glory of the BIMAs that outstanding projects are entered and honoured year-on-year. Nothing could happen without the backing of the wider industry and I pay thanks on behalf of the BIMA Executive to our headline sponsors Exhilo, who live and breathe the values by which the BIMAs are judged - creativity, effectiveness, execution and interactivity.
“...BIMA has been rewarding and celebrating the best digital and interactive work since 1985.�
We also gratefully acknowledge the support of Digital Gurus, Six Degrees Group, Transversal, our remaining sponsors, media partners .net, C21 Media, Chinwag, Communicate, Contagious, Digital Doughnut, Figaro, Mixing Digital, The Drum and The Guardian Media Network for helping make the BIMA Awards the highlight of the British digital calendar. Thank you also to all of you who joined us at our most interactive party ever at Bankside Vaults on 22 November. And if you weren't there this year, mark Thursday 21 November 2013 in your calendar now and get ready for the call for entries in early May so you'll have the chance of taking the stage and taking home a BIMA in 2013.
Justin Cooke Chair of BIMA
A word from the Chair of the Awards
I was privileged (but a little scared) to take up the reigns of the BIMA Awards in 2009 and the last four years have been a process of re-vamp and reform. This wouldn't have been successful without the support of some extraordinary people to whom I owe a debt of gratitude. Firstly, I would like to thank the 50 industry stars listed below who gave up significant amounts of their time to judge the 2012 awards. I'm continually blown away by the calibre of people that we attract to judge the BIMAs and the integrity with which they approach the task. Next I need to thank everyone within BIMA who has supported the awards, in particular Bridget Beale who has an astounding ability to make order out of chaos, Justin Cooke for being a spectacular Chair of BIMA but most of all, the amazing Janice Cable who - quite simply - saved my arse when I took over in 2009.
“...I’m continually blown away by the calibre of people that we attract to judge the BIMAs ...”
This year will be my last as chair of the awards and it just remains for me to say that it's been a pleasure to be involved and an honour to work with the people I've met along the way. 2012 was amazing, hold on to your hats for 2013!

/ DBA IN SPACE Produced by: The Mill Produced for: Red Gate
Red Gate Software liberates Database Administrators (DBAs) from the server room. So this campaign gave one lucky DBA the ultimate experience of liberation: a trip to Space. To get there they needed to win a competition like no other. A 14-part sci-fi, broadcast on the web. At the end of each episode, DBA's answered a question or completed a challenge using Red Gate software. Throw in social media, mobile, OLM, direct mail, and a live event, and you've got the kind of integrated campaign you'd expect for a mass audience. But the campaign is entirely focused on DBA's. Behind it all is Red Gate, a successful UK software company that wanted to raise its brand awareness amongst database end users, IT managers and buyers. Working closely with Red Gate, The Mill Digital developed a fully integrated campaign comprising the website, the space-noir competition, the in-game communications and above all the films. The audience then voted for the final winner. And the campaign set a new marketing benchmark for the sector.

But they weren't. It was all lies. A second ad for the campaign - 'The World's first sound you can taste' -lived on Spotify and used 3D binaural sound to increase the placebo effect. Both executions were created for advertising, but they also became webfilms and together have clocked up nearly 150,000 views. Separate Facebook advertising was created for the campaign and all of the work was hosted on a Facebook hubsite. The campaign was so successful that Kellogg's commissioned a 3D version which aired in cinemas nationwide before some of the summer's biggest blockbusters.

To help women discover their fashion confidence, Indicia brought Very's brand proposition "Style made simple" to life. Experian Fashion segments and Indicia's Interact E data were used to segment the prospect pool into three distinct wardrobe attitudes. Prospects were invited via email and a DM pack to take a revealing online 'style personality' quiz, then redistributed into the communication stream that best matched their wardrobe attitude. Using stylish photography and upbeat copy, potential customers were emailed outfit suggestions that would tempt, inspire and instil them with the confidence to try the latest trends. With 12,667 new customers and an estimated LTV of £9.5 million, 'Love your Wardrobe' successfully demonstrated the value of launching a highly targeted story across integrated media to activate a brand.

/ ESCAPE THE MAP Produced by: AMV BBDO, Weapon7, unit9 & AMV Lab Produced for: MERCEDES
'Escape the Map' brought Google Streetview to life in a trans-media sci-fi thriller. Respondents had to help a girl, Marie, escape the map, by driving her to safety in a virtual Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe. Those that did had the chance to win the car for real. The campaign used a combination of AR, social media and phone calls from the characters to enhance the narrative and place it directly in the hands of participants. A 30" teaser aired during a primetime ITV X-Factor slot, with Marie pleading viewers to help her Escape the Map. Imitating a film release, she simultaneously appealed for help via 6-sheets and bus sides. Viewers took up the challenge online, navigating through a dystopian map world in a C63 AMG.

'Foxes Live: Wild In The City' was a groundbreaking multiplatform event about Britain's urban foxes. For the first time ever, a television series engaged the public in a comprehensive study of a wild urban animal. Interactivity was the beating heart of the project. Users submitted their fox sightings and took part in a fox survey in association with Brighton University - the cornerstone of the TV editorial. In addition, state-of-the-art GPS tracking maps allowed users to follow foxes live online up and down the country. And with rigged fox dens, viewers could watch the foxes around the clock online.

They even got their own web page and banner ads for their blog so they could sell the album on social media. And they got a quid for each one they sold. We turned the fans into retailers. Instead of them sharing for free they got paid.

Get Well Soup engaged users around the insight that people believe that eating soup when you're not feeling well can make you feel better. Using this insight the campaign tapped into the emotional territory of gift-giving by creating a link between soup and sending people a get well gift. A Facebook application was created where fans could personalise a can of Heinz Soup with their friend's name which was then sent directly to their friend who was feeling under the weather, for just £1.99. This resulted in some brilliant tender Heinz moments shared on the Heinz Soup Facebook page where people shared stories of how the personalised cans and the thought behind the gift had had a really positive memorable impact on their day.

Retail store staff reported that they often struggled to demonstrate the true power of smart phones and devices to customers in store. Many devices were 'dummy' models that could not be activated and information on features, price plans and extras was stored across several sources. Detica recognised that digital media could 'come to the rescue'. They created a unique and exciting tool to help e mpower Vodafone retail staff. It brings to life the features of the devices, provides on-hand info that otherwise would require staff to leave the customer and creates a 'wow' moment in the sales process. The retail app brings digital media innovation into the high street. Retailers can have a more involved conversation with customers, and in turn a greater likelihood of converting a sale.
