HUBBUB WORKING FLAT OUT!

Hubbub has recently completed a major contract for a high-profile client, producing 29 'youth-style' videos in record time.

Hubbub cameraperson and business director, Justin Chaloner, appreciated the chance to experiment with dynamic camerawork, crash zooms and speeded-up material. He said: “At Hubbub we can turn our hand to all styles of TV, but we are particularly comfortable with youth telly. It’s the reason we get up in the morning!”

Travelling throughout Mid, North and South Wales, the Hubbub Gang pulled out all the stops to meet a tight deadline and produce a quality product. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive with compliments and praise for the team's efforts.

EDIBLE ART GALLERY

Harpers Luxury Gifts served up a feast for the eyes at Cardiff’s first ever ‘Edible Art Gallery’. The exhibition included exhibits that were either made from or featured chocolate. These included a life-size female torso covered in gold and black chocolate balls, Candy Blossom trees displayed as a tank of flowers, “Eat Your Words”, chocolate for children of all ages, edible credit crunch art, and Harper’s very own chocolate art masterpieces displayed on easels.

Yvonne Smith, from St David’s Hall, said: “At St David’s Hall we have always strived to be a catalyst for creative endeavours. Projects like the Edible Art Gallery certainly have the potential to reach across all age groups and if they encourage the take up of arts in the community we are all for it.”

The event was featured on Real Radio and in the local press. Click here for an article in the South Wales Echo and here for an article in the South Wales Argus.
