They think it's all over! It is now!

I have to say it takes a lot to impress me… but when I saw the amazing job that the designers Hill Langdell did with the award entry I’ve been working on over the last few weeks, it exceeded all my expectations.

With it being a World Cup year we wanted to go with a football theme, but not in an obvious way. So, after a get together and several cups of tea, we came up with the stunning idea of using Subbuteo as the theme.

We shoot, we score! Based on this, the entry folder was made as a Subbuteo game box, with players included (all in my client’s branded colours of course) and with the award submission document inside. This had the same theme and featured page numbers on Subbuteo players’ shirts.

The big challenge was getting hold of Subbuteo - it doesn't appear to be sold any more, but friends and family raided attics and toy cupboards and we ended up with more than we needed.

Hill Langdell took some great photographs and they used these throughout the entry to convey my client’s key messages. It looks like all the long hours and sleepless nights that they put in have really paid off.

Just like the England team, we’re looking forward to a good result once the competition is finished.
