East meets West End Kennedy Monk are proud to have produced the packaging and print advertising for the new RTS title from Square-Enix. This heralds an exciting new relationship between Square-Enix and Kennedy Monk ltd. Square-Enix were looking for an eye-catching visual style that would set Order of War apart from all of it's competitors. Order of War represents the first "western" title for Square-Enix and so it was important that a strong visual statement was made. We're very excited to be involved with such a ground-breaking release for Square-Enix. Building on the success of Order of War K&M are now developing a further 2 titles for Square Enix.

The numb3rs don't 1ie Knowing exploded onto cinema screens earlier this year, with a £6.5m take at the box office, so great things were expected of the DVD. K&M were there to lend a hand, designing the packaging and press. This cerebral sci-fi action flick, directed by Alex Proyas (Dark City, I, Robot) appealed to a primarily male audience, so long-lead press ads were placed in specialist film and sci-fi magazines. The results? A fantastic opening day performance that put the film at number one in both the blu-ray and dvd charts. K&M are delighted to have been involved in another great success for E1. |

K+M were delighted to help publicise the release of award-winning political shock-doc The Yes Men Fix The World. The film begins with the Yes Men's famous 2004 impersonation of a Dow Chemical spokesperson on BBC World News, in which they took responsibility for the largest industrial accident in history – the Bhopal disaster – in a broadcast that reached 300 million people. Dow’s share price dropped by $2 billion in just 23 minutes as shareholders rejected the idea of compensating families who suffered death, disability and disease after 42 tonnes of toxic gas from a leaky chemical plant engulfed the city’s poorest neighbourhoods. K+M came up with a new brand of bottled water, B'eau Pal, which the Yes Men took to the streets of London, offering samples to unsuspecting passersby. Later the same day, they visited the headquarters of Dow Chemical in Slough, to challenge a representative to drink the water. The Yes Men Fix The World will be shown across the UK in participating cinemas on Tuesday, 11 August, via a nationwide satellite link-up. |
