Favourite tweet of the week


Tweed with a twist, Maude & Fox is all about making urban country chic come to life through combining traditional materials and great design to make contemporary clothes that can be worn by lad or laird alike.

Boombox tweets on behalf of this Dorset based company and love the reaction their tweed products create, such as the tweet above.

Broadcast Video Europe is the UK’s essential broadcast and production technology event. BVE is a popular broadcast show that took place in the capital last week. Exhibitors included Sony, Panansonic, JVC and Polecam. For 2013, the show moved its base from Earl’s Court to the London ExCeL centre for the first time. Not surprisingly for a technology event, BVE was already active on social media channels including  Twitter, Google+, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube. But whilst the show has great branding with its ‘play’ icon, this was not consistent across all channels.[[MORE]] Boombox worked with BVE at the start of the year to ensure that all their social media accounts not only looked great (and on-brand), but were also connected with all their exhibitors and guest speakers.  Messages were sent to followers of old and defunct accounts ensuring that online conversations were all happening on the correct channels.   Complete profiles were created, along with bespoke Facebook page tabs that linked to the BVE mobile app and event registration forms.  This has been the second event Boombox has worked on this year. We didn’t post live updates in this case, but that allowed us to catch up with clients at show including TV-BAY, whose broadcast show streamed live from ExCeL daily. The new venue proved to be a success and the BVE team are already busy planning the 2014 event.  BVE is part of the i2i Events Group.
