| One year of BootB and… http://www.bootb.com/holidays/letscelebrate/ P.S.: thanks to Raskolnikov for the music! |

One of the reasons I accepted my role with BootB is because of the amazingly creative and talented people I have yet to meet and discover through the interview process.
This time, I had the pleasure of interviewing Ben Keenan, winner of the “DONE! Press and Web Campaign” Pitch…
Today we are happy to share with you one more Winning Solution. It was created by warmcola from Australia for Done!, an Italian company.
Tomorrow we will share with you an interview with the Winner.
Meanwhile… Let’s see the campaign itself!
Similarities:
Both begin with B…
Both started in a garage…
Both signed 1st contract in January…
Both were innovating industries…
Both are about generating living ideas…
and now we can add… both creating for EMI!
Differences:
The Beatles is a legend, BootB not (yet… :)
The Beatles started in 1960, BootB in 2008
The Beatles were born in UK, BootB in the web…
The Beatles created in 4, BootB in more than 10 (thousands… :)
The Beatles are in every country of the world, BootB is only in 118…
The Beatles changed the music history with EMI, BootB is dreaming about it!
Wanna add something?
Do you remember an article about BootB published in the Spanish magazine “Brandlife” on October 20, 2008? We’ve mentioned this publication in our blog some time ago.
Today, thanks to artisdesign, you can read it in English as well. You can find it on our Media (About Us) page or download a PDF file directly by this link.
Many thanks to artisdesign for this translation once again, it’s great to feel your support!
Let’s enjoy today some Solutions that were submitted to the “Sparkling wine for young people” Pitch (not the winning one which has to be implemented first). Abrau-Durso has chosen them as the most interesting ones.
Two special thanks:
∞ to Abrau-Durso that commented each one.
Do you know the project called “Design and Design“?
You should know it for at least 2 reasons:
| 1. Every day the designer Marc Praquin, the founder of Design and Design, chooses two great designs and shares them with the world. Then, after a year, all designs that were awarded online are published in the Design and Design Book of the Year. |
|
| 2. Yesterday, Marc has announced a new challenge within the Design and Design project: “Best Bio Packaging”. He said that he is “convinced that a consumer and environment friendly packaging can match with mass marketing and commercial needs”. As a proof he will publish a new book called “Best Bio Packaging“. |
It’s a great opportunity for you to send your concepts… also those which participated to a BootB Pitch, but were not chosen by the Brands.
It would be great to see a design made by a BootB Creator in a Design and Design book (or even in both books! :)
Have a creative day!

Today we are sharing with you the first Winning Solution on BootB! This idea was chosen by Auchan as the best one at the very beginning of the year 2008. The author is ppm-team - a team of creative people from Russia leaded by Alexey Smirnov. They were the first Winner on BootB!
“New Year holidays are quite long in Russia so I thought it would be better to have something exciting to do rather than sit and do nothing. And BootB, being a sort of 2008 Santa Claus, promised a reward for this work,” said Alexey. “Some of my friends and colleagues were happy to join me brainstorming on the kitchen table. We really had a great time working and laughing. The ideas were just appearing one after another.”

Dear Creators,
Another clarification (we hope still not boring… :) about the way BootB is dealing with YOUR Solutions. Yes… YOUR Solutions!
Every time you publish a solution and it doesn’t win, it remains to be completely YOURS. At the moment the Brand chooses the Winner, all IP (intellectual property) rights for your Solution return to you according to the Creator’s Agreement. We don’t keep your Solutions; we don’t disclose them and don’t sell them.
BootB gives you an access to Pitches (or tenders like many use to say). Through BootB YOUR ideas are participating and hopefully win. If they don’t win, they still will be YOUR and YOUR ideas only! After the Pitch process you can share them, reveal or use in other projects.
Those Solutions that you can see in the BootB Blog were (and will be) published only if we have permission of their owners. If the Brand wants to buy additional (to the Winning one) Solutions, the deal will be completed only in case you agree to it.
Your BootB Team
This post is among others that we publish in response to your letters.
