Sneaky peek before it’s complete!

Remember we told you about us doing Meisha’s music video? Well there has been huge progress! OK, so we can’t reveal the final video just yet (hold your horses!). We can however provide you with exclusive behind the scenes photographs. Gimmie’ a woo...

Higher Ground stormed Maida Vale and recorded the band in action and what action we captured on film. We can also reveal that the song which has been filmed is ‘On My Own Side’, which can be heard on Meisha’s MySpace page.

Check it out, our MD and Head of Creative aka the next Spielbergs...



So jokes aside, the shoot went amazingly well and we had a lot of fun on the way! So, as always - ‘Watch this space for the next instalment’...

It’s alive... It’s alive!

Yes that’s right folks. CTMS Travel’s new website is up and running and designed by yours truly!

Corporate Travel Management Solutions approached Higher Ground to design and develop their site and we were (of course) more than happy to help them spruce up their online presence and launch a brand spanking new website!

CTMS have been in the travel business for 20 years and provide impeccable travel management for hundreds of people all over the world. Their specialist services help to lighten the responsibility and organise everything from flights to visas to exhibitions in all the places we only dream of going.



Here at HQ have been working on this day and night to ensure its success... OK maybe not all night! So let us know what you think...

Higher Ground Creative is BAD to the bone!

Higher Ground Creative is proud to announce that we are an award winning agency!

What an exciting start to 2009! Firstly I would like to thank and accept this award on behalf of everybody who played a part of making this happen (tears, sob, cry) and I would like to thank my parents... just joking, but not about the award. Here at HQ we are as giddy as can be as our web designs have not gone un-noticed and we have won this month’s BAD Award! No, this is not an award for being bad at what we do! It’s the Britain Awards Design and is up for grabs each month and is open to anyone and everyone.

Last month we decided to enter The Buffalo Club website which we created back in November 08’ and we are delighted to announce that we bagged this month’s hot spot.


This award is open to anyone in the UK and covers all aspects of web design ranging from student to professional participants and we would recommend it to anyone and everyone! Check out the website to see Higher Ground featured on BAD’s home page.

A Higher Ground New Year

Higher Ground would like to wish you all a Happy New Year! It is the time when we ring out the old year and welcome the present with open arms! As promised here are a few pictures of what delights we received from each other for our Secret Santa gifts.

All in all we were pleasently suprised with our presents! Along with 'potty putter', we got some cool books, an etcher sketcher, a pair of braces, a funky salt n pepper shaker set and herbal tea for the hippie amongst us!

Watch this space as 2009 is going to bring some exciting new projects for Higher Ground to work on!

A Higher Ground Christmas

Last night seems to have been the universal 'company Christmas party night' and we at Higher Ground are proud to say that we'd also contributed to the festive fun by going out for a Christmas dinner and exchanging our not-so-Secret Santa presents.

For dinner, we chose the 'World's greatest Belgian restaurant and bar' - say it with me now - Belgooo! The food really was delicious and even the best trained of us had some difficulty finishing all the courses. Definitely a good choice for a staff meal we'd say!

This week, we've also been sending out our Christmas wishes in the form of an HTML email - have a look at the design and tell us what you think! More importantly though, we'd like to extend our warm wishes to you as well and finish today's entry by wishing you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us here at Higher Ground.

A Rough Guide to staying amused online when you should be working!

Remember all those funny emails you have received in the past? I’m talking about the ones that have been seen by millions of people, that everyone talked about! Well here they are, all in one place, already neatly compiled to forward onto your friends! The surprise, the awkwardness, the comic factor... all making for a pretty sound explanation of why this piece of work is a success! Well here’s the low down, Higher Ground were approached by Rough Guides to create a viral campaign to help with the launch of their new book, and compiled this video for them with some of the biggest and funniest clips from the world wide web guaranteed to make you LOL!

'Fine line between Dark and Beautiful'

As always, this week we have some very exciting news to share with you. Higher Ground have had the opportunity to work with a fresh new band called 'Meisha'. You can listen to some of their songs on their MySpace page.

When we first met them, this self-proclaimed Alternative/Trip Hop/Electro band, signed by EMI Records (!!), were after a new logo. The brief was: something simple with a lot of impact - something similar to the logos of Morcheeba, Portishead and Massive Attack.

We let our design team loose and the final product is below - what do you think?

We are also going to be working with Meisha on their new music video (again !!) in the coming weeks (watch this space). The star of opportunity twinkles on the horizon....
