this week in MediaCityUK - parties, videos and logos
posted Jun 24, 2008 - 03:01 AM
Last week was pretty busy for MediaCityUK. On Thursday 19th June, Brian Greasley (Managing Director) was giving a quick talk at the b.TWEEN 08 conference at the Museum of Science and Industry. The 9 minute talk is available online, and while it doesn't really contain any new information, it does include a new MediaCityUK promo video (skip to 06:00) which has some new fly-through scenes of the development, and shows off the new logo.
This new promo was shown again on Friday the 20th at a huge party held at the Pie Factory. Over 400 guests were invited to the new MediaCityUK Studios to see what MediaCityUK could offer to those working in the media industries. The MEN has a brief write up here, and you can see pictures here (via SalfordQuays.org).
In preparation for the bash, the Pie Factory underwent a serious makeover last week, and now sports the latest MediaCityUK identity and logo, alongside industry related images. (Pics to follow). Finally, it looks like a new official website is imminent... watch this space!

Not a lot of MediaCityUK news to report since the ITV bombshell, except perhaps this article from the FT about the positive impact MediaCityUK is likely to have on Salford and the surrounding areas. The article also provides a quick introduction to the local housing market - useful if you're looking at relocating to Salford. Mar 26, 2009 - 11:04 PM
Debate about the BBC's staff relocation packages continues to rumble on and on - Liz Hunt at the Telegraph says, "I can't be the only taxpayer with northern credentials who feels insulted by the implication that having to up sticks from the South East is akin to an enforced relocation to Mogadishu or Harare." (full article here). Meanwhile, Andy Spinoza at How-Do offers some relocation advice to BBC staff - "Some media people will find the value, community, and friendliness on offer in the likes of Monton and Eccles more appealing than the fancy nick-nack shops of Didsbury..." (full article here). Mar 13, 2009 - 12:22 AM
