BOOK OF THE GREATEST BRITISH NIGHT IN DIGITAL 2014 #BIMAawards
#BIMAawards
INTRODUCTION Welcome to the Book of the Night 2014 – inside you will find details of all our finalists plus a showcase of this year’s winning work. And what a year it is to be a BIMA Award winner! It’s BIMA’s 30th anniversary, meaning we’ve been celebrating and rewarding the best of British digital since 1985. The changes in the industry and in BIMA have been massive over the span of thirty years, and even just since this time last year. Data continues to be increasingly important in the development of the web and the benefits are now clearly translating into value for users – and not just advertisers. Contextually-aware websites and highly-personalised content are now genuinely useful and not just creepy! And as most people approach email overload, it’s encouraging to see the rise of alternative systems of communication and more innovative ways to engage. Agencies and brands alike continue to embrace the changing mobile landscape and our hotly-contested ‘Second Screen’ category, not to mention ‘Mobile’ and ‘Native Mobile Apps’ shows the strength of work out there in this field. As the industry evolves so too do the companies within it. We’re delighted and proud to not only have industry leaders well-represented on the list of award winners but also as our sponsors. A huge thank you to our major sponsors Brilliant Basics, MediaMonks, Rackspace and Telerik Sitefinity. And no less of a thank you to our category sponsors 12ahead, Amoveo, Aspire, Audio Network, Cactus, Creative Social, e3, Engage Sciences, Futureheads, Huddle Creative, Iomart, Kemp Little, QA Apprenticeships, Resource IT, Sticky Content, TDA Digital, The Agency Collective, The Drum and Transmute. We’re immensely grateful for their support and the awards couldn’t take place without their backing. A special thank you also to our partners The Guardian, Contagious, C21 Media, Chinwag, Reztron, Figaro Digital and Say Fromage. And lastly, congratulations to the winners and to everyone who made the shortlist.

the judges 2014 Judging the BIMA Awards is never an easy task but this year definitely had an added layer of pressure, with all eyes on the awards for their 30th anniversary. Every year we are fortunate to be inundated with talented people applying to judge the awards and I know that the 2014 judges were proud to be involved. Certainly this showed through in the enthusiasm and rigour they applied to the judging process. My personal thanks go to the full judging panel and also to my fellow BIMA Executive Tiffany St James who did an amazing job of chairing the judging day. I also want to acknowledge the people who’ve built the profile of the awards over the past 30 years. The BIMAs have evolved hugely in this time: categories have come and gone, the format continues to evolve and the night itself has become one of the standout events in British digital. While we’re reflecting on the last 30 years, you may be interested to know what we were judging in 1985 – back before the arrival of the Internet. Well, the first BIMA Awards (or British Interactive Video Association awards, as we were then known) honoured work in just two categories: best design and best product. EPIC won best design for an interactive training manual to help with electrical installation and the BBC won best product for the Teddy Bear disc – with Martin Wright who ran the latter project going on to win eight BAFTA nominations and one TIGA. Proof that even in our founding year the awards were a launchpad for entrepreneurialism and innovation. So with everything that has changed, it’s great to see that some things remain the same. Although we have definitely added a category or two since 1985!

Xbox - A real-life transfer saga for the virtual world The overall goal was to challenge perceptions of PlayStation as the home of FIFA, demonstrating the benefits of FIFA 14 on Xbox One, and to drive referrals to download starter packs for FIFA Ultimate Team in UK, France, Germany and Spain (engaging existing and targeting new gamers). Jam’s insight was that players of FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT, the online version of FIFA) were deeply passionate about their virtual players and Xbox has 42 exclusive virtual players available in the game. So they decided to blur the lines between the virtual and the real in an interactive, multi-lingual transfer saga.

Other wins included Jura Whisky and P&G brands Always and Discreet where they delivered the first ever end-to-end social model, changing the way this powerhouse of marketing handles operations. On top of that Holler celebrated an incredible 3 pieces of work featuring in Campaign’s Top 10 Digital Innovations of 2013, including an interactive Pinterest campaign exploring the mind of cyclist Danny MacAskill for Red Bull’s ‘Imaginate’ project and their Snapchat campaign for The Co-operative, making the brand the UK’s first retailer to use the photo messaging app as an advertising medium.

The Amazing World of Gumball: Your Toy The Amazing World of Gumball brings together a host of funny characters and truly celebrates creativity and imagination. To promote the new series Holler wanted to involve the creators and bring Gumball into the lives of fans in a way that would reward their imagination; creating a story that would thrive within their social network.
Produced By: Holler
They asked fans to create and name their own character that could live in The Amazing World of Gumball, with drawings that would become the content for the show’s Facebook page. Each week the creators of Gumball reviewed every drawing and selected their favourite to be brought to life as an amazing cuddly toy, and sent to the child that had created it.

Tap for water Typhoon Haiyan struck the Philippines in 2013 killing at least 6,200 people and changing the lives of over 11 million. Gawad Kalinga, a local Filipino charity, sent out an SOS saying victims needed clean, portable water to survive the aftermath. They needed help, fast. Within 48 hours Jam had hacked one of their entrance gates to create the world’s first ‘charity turnstile’. Employees tapped in with their ID card to send an instant micro donation from their salary. Every penny raised supplied clean water to victims in the Philippines. Jam called this solution Tap to Give.

Christmas in a Day The public participated in the Sainsbury’s ‘Christmas in a Day’ project in three ways. First an appeal from director Kevin Macdonald in November 2012 for the public to film their Christmas and submit the footage for a crowd-sourced documentary. This led to almost 20,000 clips being sent in. A year later the film campaign launched with a 3.5 minute film trailer seen by over 5 million people, which ran across the entire break of Coronation Street and the semi final of X Factor. Lastly came the launch of the full-length 50-minute film on Youtube, seen by over 1.19 million people.

Beats - The Pills To prove that their small Pill speakers were remarkably loud, Beats by Dr. Dre invented The Beats Pills: tiny, trash-talking characters with big personalities and even bigger mouths. The Pills had a voice in every important pop culture conversation via custom-rendered art for social media, contextual out-of-home and online ads, and a live-action celebrity talk show animated instantly using Unity technology. Beats even produced and sold real characters designed to hold the Pill speakers. In the end, they achieved their goal in creating an authentic cultural voice that resonated directly with their audience.

CBBC Gamebuilder With the key objectives of innovation, education and fun in mind, BBC and Atticmedia created CBBC Gamebuilder, which allows users (7+) to create, play and share their own computer game with friends and family. Once you are familiar with the basics of creating a game, the only limit is your imagination... Interactive video tutorials were created to explain each piece of functionality in a clear, simplistic manner. Menu structures were developed to help users find, play, tag and rate games easily within the application. To enable users to simply draw and then instantly play a game, the team used the open source Box2D physics as their underlying game engine. Finally a two-tiered moderation system was introduced and integrated with the admin system to allow users to publish games instantly.

IKEA. Make Small Spaces Big 360 IKEA knows that homes in the UK are officially the smallest in Europe. LIDA and Yellowbird invited IKEA customers and loyalty card members into an online home that was small on space but big on ideas. Rather than seeing flat product shots or room sets, the home used clever 360 degree surround-video technology to allow customers to explore as they wished, and find out more about products which happened to catch their eye. They could then purchase these directly from IKEA.co.uk 285,000 unique visitors were welcomed to the home, with over 82% looking around two or more rooms. This led to 5.8% higher additional sales than previous campaigns. And 7,500 extra IKEA FAMILY members into the store, an increase of 12.9%.

Pepsi Max Unbelievable Bus Shelter As part of the Pepsi Max ‘Unbelievable’ campaign Grand Visual, AMV BBDO, OMD and Talon wanted to bring an unbelievable experience to the lives of their audience. Their answer was a media first augmented reality bus shelter. A live video-feed to an HD screen gave the illusion of a clear window onto the street. They mapped 3D animations over the environment in order to prank unsuspecting commuters with events like alien invasions and a giant robot attacking the city. A sensor even adjusted the animations to match varying light conditions. They captured peoples’ reactions and shared the video on their Unbelievable YouTube channel.

With a budget of a mere £15k, Yomego created a world first - the ‘Pancake Selfie’ microsite. Their creative team devised a way to put faces (taken from social media, PC or webcam) onto pancakes, creating a unique ‘pancake Selfie’. The campaign accounted for 10% of total online conversation around Shrove Tuesday and reached 5m people, covered in multiple major media outlets.

Performance
Putting Forest Holidays on the map for UK holidays Propellernet have helped the team at Forest Holidays achieve their objective of providing one of the most authoritative sites in the market for UK holidays.
Produced By: Propellernet
The strategy - to make life better for people booking UK holidays and breaks has made Forest Holidays a genuine authority. It has earned (not paid for) the right to be recognised and is achieving sustainable business growth ahead of target and in an increasingly competitive market.
Produced For: Forest Holidays
By thinking about the people that would enjoy a Forest Holiday, Propellernet identified personas ranging from dog owners, to nature enthusiasts and even couples wanting romance. They then developed a standout resource Forestipedia - to provide content to make life better for these people and for link-building and social-sharing. Previously invisible on Google for terms such as ‘UK holidays’ and ‘dog friendly holidays’ it’s now a top five site, beating a number of large competitors in the process.

Second Screen
Dynamo Unlock Red Bee Media identified that hardcore Dynamo fans love to experience new magic and, if they get a sneak peek ahead of their peers, there is an inherent social currency in being able to talk about it and share it first. The campaign built on this insight, turning fans into brand ambassadors across social channels. Red Bee devised a cross-platform campaign to cater to this tech savvy audience, launched with a roadblock promotion and involving the creation of a second screen experience that allowed fans to unlock new Dynamo content and share their experiences within the same portal. Fans were rewarded with the chance to see Series 3 Episode 1 a full week ahead of the on-air premiere – a UK TV industry first. To enrich the experience further, fans saw their tweets played out in real time on their TV screens during the show, with the best tweets then repurposed during the week before the on-air.

Xbox - A real-life transfer saga for the virtual world The overall goal was to challenge perceptions of PlayStation as the home of FIFA, demonstrating the benefits of FIFA 14 on Xbox One, and to drive referrals to download starter packs for FIFA Ultimate Team in UK, France, Germany and Spain (engaging existing and targeting new gamers). Jam’s insight was that players of FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT, the online version of FIFA) were deeply passionate about their virtual players and Xbox has 42 exclusive virtual players available in the game. So they decided to blur the lines between the virtual and the real in an interactive, multi-lingual transfer saga.

Jura Lost Island The Isle of Jura may be insignificant in size but it produces one the World’s most loved whiskies. When Twitter followers angrily mentioned it had disappeared from Google Maps, Holler spotted an opportunity. Harnessing the community’s passion that very day, they launched #findjura. They asked fans to mark an X where they thought Jura was on a map. For every correct entry, a bottle of Jura and a letter calling for reinstatement were sent to Google. By harnessing the passion of Jura’s fans, and capturing imaginations everywhere, they stood up to Google and were put back on the map!

Re-invigorating the Royal Navy for a millennial audience The Royal Navy promises adventure, purpose and excitement. But its website wasn’t telling the Navy’s story well, nor driving recruitment. How could it be made to work for a young, digitally savvy audience? By redefining the Royal Navy’s digital and social strategies to focus on storytelling, e3 designed and built a fully mobile-optimised website, rich in inspiring, informative video content. In just six months, site views went from 271,946 to 459,967 (up 69%) and video views went from 28, 439 to 45,157 (up 59%). Crucially, applications through the website went from 17683 to 25874, which is a 46% increase.
