Made By Jonty is Sheffield’s newest ‘gastro-cafe’. They approached us to help them with their launch PR, of course we were more than honoured to take on that challenge.
As well as doing a brand audit, we wrote and sent out a press release, and organised the official launch event. The evening was a great success, and saw a nice mix of guests enjoying Made By Jonty’s salad bar and the Pimm’s went down very well indeed…
Warp celebrates its 20th anniversary this year since starting up in Sheffield in 1989, with one-off events in Paris, New York, London, Toyko and Sheffield.
The North marketing agency was asked to manage the local PR for the Warp20 (Sheffield) events. Spread over the weekend of 18th – 20th September, the highlights were an open-air cinema at Park Hill flats showing various Warp music videos and short films, plus the club night at Magna for several thousand people with the likes of Nightmare on Wax and Squarepusher DJing.

As part of CreativeSheffield’s Wednesday Night Live project, Tracey Welch Photography was commissioned for a special photography exhibition. The idea is to showcase some of the city’s key players within the events and entertainment industries.
There will be between 10 and 15 portraits on show. Each person chose the location and venue to have their portrait taken, for example James O’Hara who co-owns The Bowery bar in the Devonshire Quarter and was one of the curators on the Tramlines music festival chose Notre Dame School; Sophie Mei, who was on Britain’s Got Talent a couple of year’s ago had her photo taken in her back garden; while Matt Heason, who is responsible for the Sheffield Adventure Film Festival had his photo taken at his event Cliffhanger.
Some of the other people include Patti Crozier at Endcliffe Park, she’s the events manager for The Forum and The Old House and Nick Simmonite’s photo was taken outside The City Hall, he runs The Frog and Parrot pub. My photo was taken at one of my favourite pubs in Sheffield, The Shakespeare…
Portraits:
James O’Hara, Sophie Mei, Nick Simmonite, Liam O’Shea, Ralph Razor, Matt Heason, ‘Mutley’, Sally Clark, Ben Duong, Patti Crozier, Alan Deadman, Iain Hodgson, Jamie Wilkins.
The exhibition will run from Thursday 3rd until Wednesday 30th September 2009.

We did another project as part of Wednesday Night Live, this time for West.ONE, the place to eat, drink and shop.
West.ONE Wednesday was a great success and it was also a nice sunny evening which added to the ‘Covent Garden style’ atmosphere. All retailers did special offers on food/drinks – there were also live music, a street magician and even a Michael Jackson performer (Chris Hicks).
