Having proofread a recent draft, "A Sense of Theatre" is a genuine masterpiece. Richard Pilbrow tells not only the story of the conception and birth of the National Theatre, but also delves deeply into the design team's struggle to explore and agree upon why the new spaces matter and what theatre at its essence is, finally coming to realize, “…that theatre doesn't begin and end with the rise and fall of the curtain.” If you have even a passing interest in the planning, design, and construction of performance spaces, and some desire to better understand the enormity of the process of starting and completing a major capital project in the real world where art, technology, and politics collide, you’ll want - and will enjoy - this book.
Be Part Of A Sense of Theatre - Or Just Get The Book! 'A Sense of Theatre' is Richard Pilbrow's remarkable history and exploration of the National Theatre - building and company - with which he has been involved since it's inception in 1963. This book has been eight years - or, really, a lifetime - in the making, and is nearly ready for you all to enjoy. Today we are delighted to have our Kickstarter up and running to let you support the book by just buying a copy in advance. Or for just a little more, you can be part of the book, with your name permanently inside on our supporter's page. Or for a bit more, you get your name and a short message inside, alongside the wonderful industry sponsors who are already supporting us. Please do have a look. If you have questions, shout them out. https://lnkd.in/ebQ52DD4 This is quite a story, told by quite a remarkable individual - perhaps the last one standing to have been part of the planning of this amazing building. (If you need any more encouragement, there's a special rate if you get in in the next seven days...)

Firecracker Fanatics: The Explosive Movie Experience Nobody Asked For In the realm of cinema, where the magic of storytelling unfolds on the big screen, there exists a peculiar breed of moviegoers who believe that the explosive drama should extend beyond the plot twists. Join me on an exploration as I dive into the uproarious world of fans who cannot resist turning the cinema into a literal blast. 🎇The Boom-Boom Premiere Enthusiasts: Why settle for a red carpet when you can have a red carpet and a red sky? These premiere enthusiasts believe that the best way to mark the launch of a blockbuster is with a display of fireworks that rivals a national holiday. Who needs subtlety when you can have a bang? 🎇The Plot-Hole Pyrotechnicians: Not satisfied with the storyline? These cinema saboteurs take matters into their own hands by introducing plot holes of a more explosive nature. A firecracker strategically timed during a confusing twist is their way of saying, "This movie needed a bang, and I delivered!" 🎇The Special Effects Critics' Club: Connoisseurs of cinematic effects, these individuals are convinced that Bollywood is missing out on the authentic smell of gunpowder. To rectify this oversight, they generously contribute their own special effects, enhancing every action scene with the aromatic essence of a post-firework celebration. 🎇The Sonic Boom Supporters: For those who feel the sound system is just not doing justice to the adrenaline-pumping action, sonic boom supporters are here to help. A well-placed firecracker ensures that the audio system receives a much-needed boost, transforming every explosion into a symphony of sizzles and pops. 🎇The Literal Explosive Applause: While most people settle for clapping at the end of a movie, these trendsetters believe in a more explosive form of appreciation. Why not celebrate cinematic brilliance with a burst of firecrackers? It's the standing ovation Bollywood never saw coming. 🎇The Popcorn Pyrotechnics Maestros: Tired of the traditional crunch of popcorn? Meet the popcorn pyrotechnics maestros who believe that every bite should come with a bang. Firecrackers hidden strategically in popcorn buckets turn snack time into a symphony of explosions. 🎇The 3D Firework Experience Advocates: Who needs 3D glasses when you can have a 3D firework experience? These advocates argue that firecrackers provide a multi-sensory cinematic encounter. From visual spectacles to the unmistakable smell of a post-firework celebration, it's a 3D experience that engages all the senses. In a world where explosions are expected on the screen, these firecracker fanatics have taken it upon themselves to bring the spectacle to the audience. Whether it's enhancing the soundtrack, celebrating a movie premiere, or adding literal bangs to plot twists, these moviegoers are proving that when it comes to cinema, sometimes you need more than just a popcorn pop. You need a popcorn pop with a bang!🎇🍿🍿🍿 #tiger3 #firecrackers

Think ~ Visual of how WEF Machine exerts control over Governments. It’s not one person behind a curtain, it is armies of individuals in plain sight. Gears are policies. Strings are money or perceived prestige amongst peers. Size of puppets as metaphor for world leaders on global stage. Open your ears and eyes and your mind can no longer ignore reality. #worldnews #firstpost #skynewsaustrailia #mainstreetusa #Trump2024 #veterans #ceo #founders #boardroom #veteranssupportingveterans

I have been screaming this from rooftops for the past decade. Specially in B2B marketing. 95% of brands are still afraid to explore beyond their old standard, but let me tell you something, your buyer is a human, that will see on a daily basis over 20-50 ads through his socials, newsfeeds and sites. Most of those ads will say nothing to the buyer. Your 50% off ad? He has seen 10 of those before arriving at yours. Another demo video? Oh, your competitors already did one before he even got to yours. Does he remember it? Heck no. It all goes into the void. He won't even register the ad. You know what he will register? Humor. Heart. Emotions. Humaniyu. Something that will make him laugh, cry. Something that will make him relate. Relate is the keyword. And most important: remember. You might be wary of what I am saying. But I have been doing exactly that for a lot of companies throughout the years and brands. And the impact has always been succesful. A great example in the Print Industry is Enfocus. Some might be sceptical, others might find it weird. But the result is there. I have heard from several customers more about Print Hard than about the latest update of PitStop. I have heard about characters we created in campaigns more often than any promo we ever did. Why does it work? Because everyone wants to belong. To be part of something awesome. And that is what I am continously fighting for. Making your brand awesome. But beware, the most difficult thing is to remain genuine. You can add a piano and a soft voice to create emotions but if it doesn't come from rhe right place, it will just go into the void.
SNL star Kenan Thompson knows the impact of a laugh. In the Debussy Theatre, he outlined why humour is so effective in advertising – simply by making us feel good. Watch Festival talks wherever you are until 12 July with the Digital Pass | lnkd.in/efvdhdki #CannesLions2024
