‘Transforming Energy’ Saudi Aramco

We’ve just created a new brand film for Saudi Aramco ahead of next year's
much anticipated IPO, expected to be the biggest share offering in history,
dwarfing the $22billion raised by the Alibaba Group in 2014. ‘Transforming Energy’ was filmed on location within the Kingdom, London and Shanghai where the film was launched at a gala dinner for senior management and key partners.

Directed by Matt McConaghy with GFX created in-house at Wilder, grading by Claire Winter at Roundtable and mixing by Dom Boucher at the Sound Company.

We’re proud to have again worked with UK literacy charity Beanstalk, to produce a new film to encourage volunteers to sign up to become reading helpers.

The short animation illustrates the experience of Beanstalk volunteer, Louise Sutton, told in her own words, and 8 year old Ellie, as they work hard to improve not only Ellie's literacy level, but her confidence too.

Ginny Lunn, Beanstalk’s CEO, says “A huge thank you from me. It’s so fantastic to have done this for us. It’ll be such a boost in our recruitment. Great start to the year.”

Congratulations Glasgow!

Congratulations to Glasgow on being awarded the 2017 World Badminton Championships, making it four wins out of four for Wilder, Glasgow & EventScotland. Working together again with our friends at Vero Communications, we produced two films for Glasgow's presentation to the WSF in Lima last week, where on the strength of their presentation they were awarded the 2017 World Championships, with the Sudirman Cup going to the Gold Coast.

Anne Smillie CEO of BADMINTONscotland said  'We cannot thank the team at Wilder enough for having produced the outstanding film which we included in our bid presentation in November 2014 – it in no small part helped us secure this, the Badminton World Federation’s premier event, for 2017; and for that we are extremely grateful'
