Launch Nights!

[George Falconer]

In serious danger of being Scottish Enterprises "It Boy", appearing at every party and event going - BUT - 2 big things kicked off on Friday 12 June. The first, the launch of The Hub at the Digital Media Quarter at Pacific Quay.

A marvellous new building just behind BBC Scotland and the Science Centre, The Hub's first tenants include Glasgow School of Art's Digital Design Studio and independent production company Shed Media. The invited audience were treated to some "light refreshments", and some cracking project concepts from ISO Design, Real Time Worlds and others.
That same evening, a quick around the corner to Film City Glasgow where some of Glasgow's hottest creative talent celebrated the opening of Film City Glasgow . The former Govan Town Hall has been transformed into a dazzling complex filled with some incredible production talent, facilities include a filming studio, state of the art post production facilities, short term production office space and permanent office space.

The building was awash with creative types celebrating into the wee small hours.

Both The Hub at Pacific Quay and Film City Glasgow are truly world class facilities and well worth looking into. Big thanks to everyone who made both launches a huge success!

p.s. overheard Terry Wogan on the radio - time flies like an arrow, but fruit flies like a banana... :)

It was a great night and I only wish I could have stayed on into the wee hours. Well done to SE and TransMedia Scotland for making it such a successful event, as well as to the presenters for some entertaining set pieces. The informality of the whole thing made it what it was, especially on a Friday night. Was good to be able to chat with like-minded people; bring on the next evening.

Look forward to your in-depth story and pix of the evening Darcie... :)
