4 Calling Birds…

If there was ever a reason (or 4) to visit the website of online marketing agency Equator this Christmas, well here it is.

Remember the ever popular Christmas song “The 12 Days of Christmas”? You know how it goes, “12 drummers drumming, 11 pipers piping and so on, right until you get to a partridge in a pear tree”. Well here is Equator’s take on “4 birds a calling”. Except the 4 “birds” are 4 sexy secretaries on the telephone (calling). My oh my.

 Sexy Secretaries

From left to right we have Olivia, Fiona, Clare and Gill.

Want another? Here’s the gorgeous Fiona answering her phone.

BTW if anybody wants high resolution versions of these images (ideal for desktop wallpaper) then please buy me some chocolate or Peroni and I will gladly send you them.

OK seriously, before we all rush off to apply for jobs to work in the Equator office - this is all part of their Christmas campaign due to kick off on the 7th December. Equator have decided to to give the classic 12 Days of Christmas story an Equator refresh – “An old classic digitally remastered” as it were. They are asking everyone to bookmark their special Christmas page at www.eqtr.com/christmas, and visit this site every working day from the 7th December. For every unique visitor to the site the MD of Equator will be donating money to Yorkhill Children’s Foundation.

All visitors to the site will be presented with a sketchbook which has the title of the campaign. The book will open up to reveal a countdown to Christmas day. Each day will show a video which represents the popular festive song “The 12 days of Christmas”. Music will play over the top of the videos, with the Equator team singing the song along to music. Each video will represent a day of the song, and will feature all of the Equator team! Everyone will appear in at least 1 day and act out the famous scenes with an Equator twist. When the video is complete it will countdown the previous days and end with a still image of each day shown so far. The 12th day will be shown on the 24th December, what perfect timing!

So I’d like to thank Equator for not only donating money to a very worthy cause but for brightening up my PC’s desktop wallpaper, the joy of seeing Fi and her colleagues in those uniforms every time I switch on my PC makes my days so much brighter :)

What I’m listening to right now: Dream - “I Luv Your Girl”

Page not found on the eqtr.com/christmas address!

Not keen on the Equator website - too much flash and flickering going on for me but the overall design looks good.

I’ll trade you a Hotel Chocolat mini slab for a hi-res of Clare…

Joff, its not live until 7th December. As for the mini slab, it will need to be a larger one I’m afraid. Yes the high res picture is worth it!

You should have heard what was originally planned! I was sent the proofs but thought it was a bit too risque… anyone want to see the photo’s from their original idea?

Just spoke to Clare and she’ll be setting up a seperate bidding process on eBay as soon as she selects which prints to auction. Colin will be developing some ’special’ art prints of said subject matter also.
