MIPCOM Mobile and TV awards on Second Life
There’s nothing like practicing what you preach. MIPCOM has been championing new media for some time now. For the third time the event will host the Mobile and TV Awards for innovative programming in “cross-media” formats. What’s new this year is that they are showcasing the event on the online game Second Life. Categories include: [...]
Dove film wins Cannes Lions award
Lots of advertising is really simple. The film by Dove for the Self-Esteem fund by Ogilvy & Mater Canada is a perfect example. If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s a fast-forward shot of a girl being made-up for a photo shoot, with the subsequent photo being Photoshopped. And the strapline is… well, I wouldn’t [...]
Next up: Surcar, the body-finishing fair
Although we have yet to determine what it means in terms of movies, this year’s Cannes Festival was certainly a vintage in terms of glamour and gossip. But the real world has to kick in eventually. In Cannes, this means that the plans are already in place for Surcar, the international automotive body finishing fair. [...]
UK seminar for filmmakers
Two heavyweights are coming together to enable UK filmmakers to prepare for Cannes. Chris Jones, himself a filmmaker and author of the highly recommended “Guerrilla Film Makers Handbook”, and Ben Craig, who runs CannesGuide.com and writes the equally-recommended “Virgin’s Guide to Cannes” (right), will host an event at the Ealing Studios on March 20. I [...]
Taxis to Cannes from Nice airport
I used to be quite intimidated by taking taxis around Cannes, which is not normal. Most people arriving at any strange airport always have a sneaking feeling they are going to be ripped off. How true is this at Nice airport? I’ve no figures. What I do have is a few words of advice: * [...]
Getting to Cannes from Milan
We often get requests about getting to Cannes from the Italian city of Milan, and the answer we often give is the train. Trenitalia runs three daily trains to Nice at 11.10 am, 13.10 and 15.10 that take roughly five hours to cover the 334 kilometers. From there, it’s another 20-30 minutes to Cannes itself [...]
The Cannes greeting card
We just received a card from the Immosol property agency in Cannes with the image (right). Needless to say, it’s a joke. But while we’re getting all seasonal, you might want to know that until January 7, Cannes is hosting a Christmas village on the Espace Pantiero with special events on December 24 and 31 [...]
200 classic yachts to descend on Cannes
There are already a good number of sailing events in Cannes, but the upcoming Cannes Régates Royales in September will probably cap them all. It will feature 100 year-old yachts – some up to 50 meters long – in a spectacular regatta. The bay at Cannes is almost perfect for this, as it is wide [...]
Cannes police plan a mini-strike
No Cannes festival is ever complete without a strike! This time it’s the police that are making their mark. But at least they have the courtesy to let us know in advance and to keep it short. To register their ongoing discontent with “sanctions, pressures and insufficient safety measures”, the police plan to hold a [...]
MidemNet offers digital smorgasbord
Originally posted Nov 24 2005. Like all the entertainment trade fairs, Midem gives a large slice of its attention to mobile and digital opportunities. It’s true that since ringtones and i-Tunes became so popular, digital and mobile have piqued the curiosity of a new range of operators. Many of these new entrepreneurs have been a [...]
