Idea blog

all set for my Habbo chat?

I’m looking forward to my Habbo chat tomorrow at 4pm. I’m going to be doing a walkaround of Idea HQ to show off some stuff you may not have seen yet.

And don’t forget I’ll be asking you what you think about the new roof terrace we’re going to build.

See you there?

how cool is this?

Someone from Idea showed me this bonkers thing that Lego are going to do on their boxes soon.

It’s called augmented reality, and I’m sure we could use something like this for ChildLine. Any ideas?

two deadlines extended

Wow! You’re doing so well with Pogo the logo and ChildLine is everywhere that I’ve decided to extend their deadlines a bit.

 

So if you want to take part, you’ve got until next Monday to play around with the ChildLine logo. And until Friday 13 March to find a new place to put it.

Now get cracking!

what’s your favourite roof terrace?

You had loads of great ideas for the roof terrace in Idea HQ. Like this one, for example:

Get voting now – you’ve got until Friday 6 March to thumbs up your favourite. 

And while you’re at it, take a look at some of the amazing Facebakes I’ve received too. Mmm, tasty.

get set to party hearty

Not so long ago I asked my Idea troops to come up with their perfect night out for our client, ChildLine. You came up with some great stuff, as usual – take a look at some of the best ideas here.

So now I’m taking things a stage further: I’d like you to design a new roof terrace for Idea HQ on Habbo. Maybe there should be a giant unicorn sculpture…or a cheese fountain. That’s cool. Just send your designs in and I’ll pass them to the Idea architects so we can get it built. 

There's only a few days left - so enter your roof terrace here.

what’s in your headspace?

There’s not long left to enter Headspace, our amazing brief to create an online TV show with Channel 4.

So what do you care about that could be turned into great telly? Here’s what was in beatboxer Beardyman’s head when we asked him…

We want to know who you are, what you think about, how you experience life and how you describe those experiences.For loads more advice on how to get creative, and more about how you can play a part in Headspace, visit the Channel 4 site now.

Hey there, I’m Ian, creative director of Idea. We’re ChildLine’s new creative agency, staffed by children and young people. I’m the only adult here, which pretty much makes my job the coolest in the world.

 And this is my new blog. I’ll be using to tell you all about the briefs coming up and to shout out some of the cool entries we’ve received. I’ll also post about, y’know, some of the many cool things that are out there right now. 

If you don’t know much about Idea, we have offices on Habbo, Piczo and Bebo. You can also check out the agency’s main site.
