While we were away we needed to find somewhere to stay for a couple of nights as Doncaster is a bit far from Leicester for us to commute each day. We thought that we might try our hand at saving some money on hotel costs and asked a friend in the area to recommend us a cheap (but good) hotel.

This is not what we experienced. We’re not going to point any fingers but it was a bit like staying in a hamster cage. The rooms were clean, but tiny, but what did we expect for £30 a night per room. After the first night we woke up horrified to find that cars out side the hotel had been broken into. Fortunately we had taken all our gear into the rooms with us and we are of course insured but never the less losing our kit would have been more than a little irritating. We were lucky, our car wasn’t one of the ones with a broken window, probably because we didn’t leave anything on show. Some others weren’t so fortunate, as you can see by the photo with this post.

Lesson learned, you get what you pay for and hotels are like everything else, not to be scrimped on.

During the site update we have added a new string to our digital bow in the form of a new photography section. We have been working hard on a series of commercial portraiture jobs lately. The photo you see to the right is an image of a young up and coming entrepreneur called Luke. He is the managing director of a company called YQ Vending. We expect to see big things coming from him soon.

We would like to say a big thank to Doxmart who have been a really big help to us in during this time. They have helped us with all kinds of problems with the gremlins that live in the internet and break things when you’re not looking, from giving us tips on the best way to do things to making helping us make our mailing list and blog work. Thanks guys.

Things have been busy at the Media Renegades Studio. We have been working hard to finish off the web site, we even built a client login zone so that we can give our clients somewhere private to check out the work we have been doing for them.

We want to draw your attention to one of our latest videos. It’s a short show case of Keelan Phillips of Inertia Shows. A BMX flatland entertainment company which specialse in creating a BMX show for all types of promotional event.

Now that the Christmas rush is well out of the way and the new year has got underway properly we should have some more regular updates.

It has been a busy couple of weeks here at the Media Renegades studio, we have been working hard to get our new website finished and online whilst meeting our all other deadlines. We hope that you like the new look of our blog, and will take some time out to explore our new site as well. It’s not completely finished yet, but we have been saying all along that we will get it nicely rounded off for January, which we should be on target for.

The pic that you see above is a shot we snapped quickly whilst at Rockingham racing circuit. We were there working on a project for Road User Education (RUE), who had been left in a bit of a pickle by another production company who had used some footage from a Microsoft game that they couldn’t get clearance for. Fortunately we were able to come up with a solution to the problem; to create our own video footage treated in the style a video game. All it involved was a quick visit to Rockingham, Europe’s fastest racing circuit, for a really quick shoot. Then we had a quick sit down with Chris from Rockingham who let us go though some of their own promotional footage which they were kind enough to let us use for this production. All this combined meant that we were able to produce a really nice piece for RUE within the time frame and budget.

Keep checking back for updates, we should have a lot more coming soon.
