“For designers, creatives, clients and friends. Glug is for us, for everyone we know and everyone they know…”
Tired of boring networking events, this is a great event to meet people and have a few beers at the same time. In partnership with Glug London Made Studio and Studio Output, Agency Rush and Crush bring Glug to Brighton. Following the overwhelming success of the last two Glug events, a venue change was in order and we were there to capture the night, and enjoy a beer, or two…..
We have just returned from a week away in Zaafarana, Egypt, with Kitesurf Kings – a UK based Kitesurf School that specialises in Overseas Clinics.
Situated on the Red Sea, Zafarana Beach Resort lies to the south of Cairo and the north of Hurghada. The lagoon offers both perfect conditions for beginners and experts alike, there is plenty of room for everyone and with waist deep water with only sand under your feet there is no excuse not to try those new moves!
As well as the 4 students on the intensive week long course, we were joined by Dan Sweeney, current UK British Junior Champion, his brother, Oli Sweeney and John from Stormriders. The purpose of the trip was to produce a short promotional video for the Kitesurf Kings Overseas Clinics, and podcast and still image media content for Dan Sweeney as he enters the 2010 UK competition season.
A change from the usual outdoor water based activities, Blue Juice are filming a 5 minute documentary for Atlantis Swimming Club this month. The brief - produce a 5 minute video for delivery online through the clubs website that captures all aspects of the clubs activities. It will be the first time the new underwater housing equipment for the Canon 5D will be used, capturing high definition footage in and out of the pool. Watch this space to view the final production.

We are pleased to announce that Dan Sweeney, the local kitesurfer we have sponsored throughout 2009 in the British Kitesurfing Championships has won the Junior title! Its been an exciting year for us both, with Blue Juice accompanying Dan on trips to Barbados, Cornwall and, err, Swansea! Dans web site, put together by us, has been a focal point for all his activities and we look forward to sponsoring Dan next year as he moves in to the pros. Well done Dan!

Well its been a very busy couple of weeks, and it doesnt look like its going to get any quieter! Blue Juice travelled with Dan Sweeney, UK Pro Kitesurfer, to Barbados last weekend to film a podcast for Cabrinha kites and complete an article for Kitesurf Magazine. Having only been back 3 days its been a real test of our workflows to get something online before we head off on the Cannonball Run Europe this Saturday.
A big thanks to the Virgin Stewardesses for making our jump seat flight so comfortable, and to Monster Energy Drink, NPX, Cabrinha and Virgin Holidays for supporting the trip. Loads of photos will follow, but for now check out the Nomad kite review.
Two days of fantastic conditions made Swansea Bay the place to be if you wanted to see the best kitesurfers and landboarders in the UK. With broken cloud and only a few showers the crowds were out to support the competitors, entertained by Lewis Crathern on the mic, all under the watchful eye of 5 times World Kite Surf Champion, Arron Hadlow.
Congratulations to Toby Raw, local Littlehampton rider competing for the first time in the Pro Mens – he nailed it and took first place. Blue Juice sponsored rider Dan Sweeney fought off tough competition and won all his heats, and finished second overall, setting himself up for the season ahead.
Blue Juice were there to capture the event in stills and on film.
Blue Juice spent Bank Holiday Monday down in Littlehampton on a typically British overcast day, but the most important thing was present – a good south westerly wind. It was a good opportunity to test out some new camera equipment ahead of the busy summer season, including broadcast quality mics and fluid head video tripods. Photos from the day can be viewed here - http://bluejuicedesigns.co.uk/gallery-slider-may09.php. Video footage will feature in a forthcoming release for Dan Sweeney, UK KiteSurfer.
