Itsourmovie.com – Video auditions website
Itsourmovie is a completely new idea in film. You get the chance to star in a cinema release feature film. The film is of an award winning script, and will be shot by the Academy Award nominated director Alex Jovy.
This interactive community website was built using a content management system to provide a wide selection of internet community rich features such as video uploads, sms voting, chat rooms, music uploads and Flickr integration.
For this project we developed a suite of new modules to handle the community aspect of the site, redesigned and structure the content and created the character illustrations for the cast. We also integrated both an SMS system for voting and news updates and a Paypal based payment system for buying bulk votes for your favourite auditions.

Invisible City/Media Circus
This summer Creative Republic are running a project to help raise awareness of the many creative ideas that happen in Birmingham. To nominate your favourite creative concept, project, event, exhibition, individual or company simply register for free and ‘nominate’. Winning nominations will be included in a final book, video and a final event at the end of the summer.
This is a community project with the goal of celebrating and promoting creative ideas in Birmingham. It’s the first year and we want as many people as possible to help shape the project.
The goals
So many creative and cultural events, projects, exhibitions, performances and meet-ups happen within specific networks. The goal of this project is to help widen the awareness of those networks and introduce them to whole new audiences.
The format
The Invisible City Project (run by Creative Republic) takes the format of an online nomination process for a period of 2 months, during which nominations will be distributed and promoted across multiple networks and formats. The resulting archive of nominations, with their associated votes and discussion will then be used to produce the final outcome…

MobileCashMate – Phone Recycling
MobileCashMate is a phone recycling site where customers can use a simple, intuitive interface to sell mobile phones they no longer want after an upgrade.
With thousands of new handsets being sold every year there are a growing number of unwanted phones languishing in drawers and cupboards. MobileCashMate lets people recycle old mobile phones quickly and easily online. The phones are reconditioned and re sold which not only benefits the environment by keeping them out of landfill but also gives customers a way to recoup some of the cost of their phone.
We built the front end of the website and the behind the scenes database structure. We integrated incoming data feeds to help set pricing and we provided outgoing data feeds for affiliates and comparison sites. We also built a distributors system so that other mobile phone recyclers can sell in bulk to MobileCashMate.
“Mobile phone recycling is an extremely competitive industry, people have a lot of choice of where to sell their old phone. We realised early on that this was going to be a technically demanding project that required more than just a polished front end. Adhere helped us think through how each stage of our process would interact with the website and made sure that the back end systems worked as well for our staff as the front end does for our customers.”
My Dad’s on Twitter (but he doesn’t know why)
We organised and ran this social media debating event as part of Fazeley Digital at Fazeley Studios. This brought together people working in Birmingham interested in making the most of social media tools and we discussed via a four person expert panel and a large ‘wall’ to write onto, the pros and cons of social media as a business tool. The event was filmed and streamed live on the internet as well as a Twitter fall screen provided people with a forum to interact directly with the event event if they were not in attendance.
Some chat about the event…
