weareseventeen

While in London I had the opportunity to visit “WEARESEVENTEEN” they are London based design and motion graphics studio. They produce moving image based work for broadcasters, creative agencies and corporate clients. They are a group of 3 initially but they do get in other freelances etc for large jobs. Their large studio and amount of Macs gives them the opportunity to work side by side with them. They discussed about how communication about the piece of work needed could be more time consuming if they weren’t working in direct contact with the freelances. What I found very interesting was when they explained how they have to sometimes compromise there ideas to work for the clients but how they like to keep the core idea in there. There clients include Audi, E4 and MTV.

They were very open about their work and told us about a channel ident for Universal which is a brand new channel. They explained in depth their process from initial ideas, pitches then working with the clients even the manual on using the channel ident in which I found very interesting.

The visit was so interesting and glad I went as it gave me more confidence as the way they talked about things. They were very positive towards us and talked with confidence. They also mentioned we could send them a portfolio and they would kindly give us any feedback.
