Channel 4 booklet nominated for award

Creative Cities, published by White Light Media for Channel 4, has been nominated Best One-Off publication in the IOIC Scotland awards. View the booklet here.

Creative Cities was a labour of love for me during my time as a development manager in Channel 4′s Nations & Regions department. The publication tells the story of Channel 4′s £135m investment in creative content outside of London. Encapsulating projects past (Trainspotting, Brookside) and present (Location, Location, Location, Hollyoaks), in TV and digital, the booklet celebrates Channel 4′s contribution to developing creative talent.

Myself and Stuart Cosgrove painstakingly shaped the editorial, while White Light Media worked tirelessly on the design. There was blood, sweat and tears for both parties, but the end result is a triumph. I think it genuinely raises the bar for corporate communications, so I’m delighted to see that being recognised in an award.

Well done to White Light Media. Looking forward to a good knees-up at the awards in March (where WLM are shortlisted for no less than 7 gongs!).
