Is this really the future? Facebook? Twitter? Will everyone stop watching TV?
In case you’re concerned, the Leith Agency is still here. For now…
Parisian Love
Google goes TV. And well too.
Might have to find ourselves some Parisian love too - it all looks sooo easy.
Leith Talent - Cagoule TV
In the first of what we hope will be a long, long series of celebrating local Leith talent, here’s Cagoule TV’s showreel.
And here’s some background:
Formed in 2001 after a chance meeting in an edit suite, Cagoule Productions merges live action, movement and motion graphics to create fresh and imaginative film for creative and corporate clients. Cagoule’s directors are Lewis Gourlay and Abby Warrilow.Check out more of their stuff on Vimeo and follow them on Twitter.
Lewis is a motion graphic artist and an award winning creative editor and director; Abby is a director and choreographer with an international reputation who has also recieved numerous accolades for her work.

AWESOME new full length Danny MacAskill vid for S1Jobs, shot in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen. The track is Barriers by Aereogramme, rising Scottish stars on Chemikal Underground records. Scotland’s got talent indeed.
For the shorter TV ad version, and photos shot by Jane Stockdale, a 27 year old from Banchory near Aberdeen, see more on S1Jobs.
{Disclaimer: this is part of Leith’s recent work, creatively conceived by Guy and Phil}
Channel 4 and OTX have recently provided some great insight into media use by UK young people.
Some top-line stats may surprise you about the average 12-24 year old (or not, if you are one):
- They personally own 8 devices (including MP3 player, PC, TV, DVD player, mobile phone, stereo, games console, and digital camera)
- They frequently conduct over 5 activities whilst watching TV
- 25% of them agree that “I’d rather stay at home than go on a holiday with no internet or phone access”
- A quarter of young people interviewed text or IM (instant message) friends they are physically with at the time
- They have on average 123 friends on their social network spaces
- And the first thing the majority of them do when they get home is turn on their PC
Having said that, TV is still the most popular form of media consumption, in spite of the fact that young people now spend more hours in total online.
Definitely a bit more substantial evidence than some 15 year old intern at Morgan Stanley’s point of view.
