The quiz also includes audio and video content from Kerrang radio presenters, as well as audio clips from well-known rock bands in a special interview audio round, enhancing the experience for fans.

Olympic Quiz App for Thomas Cook
Thomas Cook have been clients of the wider drpgroup for over 30 years running events and their internal comms. This promotional campaign was one of the first times we had ventured into a purely digital project with them and was exciting as we had the chance to create an official Olympic app in the process without LOCOG saying we couldn’t due to Thomas Cook being sponsors.
The application was essentially a slick Olympic quiz with leader boards and the chance to win Olympic tickets. It brought a great deal of awareness to the sponsorship and also up-sold tickets which Thomas Cook were providing.

Phil Vickery iPhone App
Phil Vickery is probably best known for his appearances on "Ready Steady Cook" and it is through the show that he met his wife Fern Britton. Phil is also the ambassador for the Coeliac Society. His role here is to promote awareness of Coeliac disease and how to live with a gluten free diet.
This iPhone application is the companion to Phil's new book "Seriously Good Gluten Free Cooking" and has several unique recipes and a broad number of general guides. Each recipe is divided into a number of steps and there is the ability to add the required ingredients to a shopping list to allow the correct items to be purchased in order to make the meal in question.
We tried to design an interface that was engaging but clear. The design theme of the book is that of a farm-house kitchen so we took the concept of recipe cards for the main recipes section. When a category is chosen there is a metaphor for scattering the recipe cards across a table to choose the recipe to be made. This simple but effective custom interface delivers a really high quality experience while communicating a homely and welcoming feel.
In the iPad version of this application the same entry point is given to the recipes but an alternative layout is presented giving easier access to the recipe information in a more appropriate arrangement for the larger screen. Both versions of the app are packaged together as a universal app allowing the consumer to take the recipes with them in both devices without having to make an additional purchase.
We included an advanced video management system in the application also. This manages the downloading and playing of a number of videos. These can be in standard or high definition and the user can choose to delete videos to free space on their device if desired.

Pavilion
Interactive Law
We created three applications for this law firm as we felt that the different areas of law they catered for were not appropriate for all app users and also trying to encapsulate the 3 unique brands in one application looked messy.

The application acts as a directory of solicitors and allows users to use their own location to find the closest in proximity to their handset or specified postcode.
