Episode #93 features Jayne Andrew & Isobel Deevy from OOH specialists BuildHollywood, who very kindly came down from Manchester to chat about some of their amazing projects.
We’ve been saying for ages who are BuildHollywood? Their name is always on the coolest stuff.
So this was our moment to find out. It’s no exaggeration to say if you’ve seen something iconic and spectacular in the great outdoors, chances are BuildHollywood would have been behind it.
We started with a brilliant idea for a brilliant book, Max Porter: Grief Is The Thing with Feathers. BuildHollywood created a ‘feather billboard’ in Shoreditch … nearly 100 episodes in and we’ve never discussed a feather billboard. Great story.
Then there was their ongoing commitment to Manchester International Festival, the Marmite special build, Travel Supermarket inflatables with Meanwhile, the super cool F37: Mancunio which recently dominated the streets of Manchester and more.
The great work kept coming: Prost8 and Specsavers were next before we ended on a very special, special build for Dreamies ‘purr-fest poster’.
We also got an exclusive (at the time!) of Listen to Your Heart, an immense collaboration with Creative Review and 3D artist Joseph Melhuish featuring Melhuish’s signature quirky style. Designed to showcase the creative potential of 3D billboard art, the project highlights how physical installations can still make a strong emotional and visual impact in an increasingly digital world. Amen to that.
Thank you both so much for coming on the show and enlightening us on all things BuildHollywood. Not to mention the yummy buns. A real treat all round.
