Welcome to issue 1 of Spirit news. Why have we produced this newsletter? Well, whilst chatting with a couple of our clients recently, it really became apparent that they were not aware of the wide and exciting range of work we produce for some quite diverse companies. Many of these are currently market-leaders within their own areas of expertise and we also like to think that we might have helped contribute, if even only in a small way, to their success.

Michael Jackson at the o2

Spirit was asked to create special commemorative presentation material for the box holders for the ‘King of Pop's' residency at the O2 this year. Obviously it was a great shock when we heard of his untimely demise, a little more than a week before his first performance. Spirit produces support material for many cultural and sporting events within the UK, and the sport & leisure industry is an integral and important part of the work we do for our clients.

PKR

PKR are a premium online poker company with its background firmly based in the games industry. Spirit designed and created the PKR corporate identity and helped mould the way the company looks just three years ago. As part of our continuing ongoing support, we produce a large number of press adverts each month plus many other corporate and promotional items. A strong, consistent and relevant image is a vital part of the branding material we provide for our clients.

Jelly Belly Jelly Beans

Jelly Belly is the most famous brand of jelly beans in the world. For many years Spirit has provided graphic support for this brand through importers and distributors Best Imports. This work has included internationally branded newsletters, advertising, vehicle liveries - including taxis and delivery vehicles right through to the cycle suits worn by the Sports Bean sponsored Wilier cycle team! Total support and vision, coupled with design expertise has meant that Jelly Belly, as with many of our clients, have been with Spirit for a large amount of years.

Superyacht Identity

It is through Spirit's long standing relationship with some of the World's most renowned yacht interior and structural designers, that has led us to specialise in graphic design for the nautical industry. Identities and support material designed by Spirit have been found on 30+ of the most beautiful and famous yachts afloat. Cacharias is one such yacht, where we were asked to produce the identity and also such items as the touch screen control system for the audio and visual systems.

Looking Back - Parcelforce

For 4 consecutive years we were asked to produce the main Parcelforce B2B corporate brochure, plus other material such as their vision and mission statement. This included copywriting and the commissioning of photography. The relationship only ceased when, because of the size of our company, we were unable to comply with new supplier requirements put in place through their organisation and we did not have the necessary ISO standards in place.
