Films and vacuums

Make your brand relevant

A few weeks ago Sochi was in the spotlight hosting the 2014 Winter Olympics. We had a lot of it on in the office and I quite enjoyed the Curling - even though I had no idea what was going on! I love this video from Dyson and their take on the sport, and this is a brilliant way to show how you can make your brand relevant to pretty much anything. 

Film night

It's award season in Filmland and this week was the biggest of all - the Oscars. I have been trying to see as many of the nominated films as possible, and I have had my own opinions on who should win the prestigious gongs. I have seen 12 Years A Slave, The Wolf of Wall Street, Dallas Buyers Club and Captain Phillips and can honestly say I was blown away by all of them, each in a different way. I'm thrilled Jared Leto won Best Supporting Actor for his role in Dallas Buyers Club and his performance was outstanding. I have always loved film, but these select have excited me like never before. A selfie, taken by Ellen DeGeneres with some of the actors has now become the most retweeted picture ever, and I love the Simpons take on it!
