Celebrate Community and Sustainability at the Inaugural ‘In a Field by a Bridge’ Festival this July

A new and exciting festival called ‘In a Field by a Bridge’ is set to launch this July, offering a unique backdrop for a weekend of festivities. Located in a community park beside an international landmark, this festival aims to inspire sustainable living and celebrate community action.

Taking place on Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd July, ‘In a Field by a Bridge’ will showcase the incredible London landmarks alongside the cityscape, nature, and the majestic River Thames. It celebrates the vibrant offerings of Potters Fields Park and the London Bridge neighbourhood, combining green spaces, rich history, remarkable architecture, a diverse resident community, and thriving businesses. This district is recognised as one of the most culturally innovative, sustainable, and exciting areas in London.

The festival serves as a platform to showcase London Bridge as a leading environmentally-focused business district. It highlights the district’s commitment to transitioning to a carbon-neutral economy, promoting low-impact living, and fostering healthy lifestyles. The impact of this festival on the local community is expected to create positive social and economic benefits that extend beyond the launch weekend.

For several years, the London Bridge community has been actively addressing global challenges through local commitments. Aligned with the ambitious goals of Southwark Council and the Mayor of London, local businesses have pledged to become carbon neutral by 2030 and significantly reduce their annual carbon emissions of 130,000 tonnes. ‘In a Field by a Bridge’ will showcase various ways in which individuals and communities can collectively and individually decarbonise and incorporate new ideas for low-carbon living into their daily routines.

Ellie Beedham, Director of Arts at Team London Bridge, expresses her excitement about the festival: “In a Field by a Bridge will mark the start of the summer for many of us. Alongside HemingwayDesign, we have curated two days of riverside festivities for the curious, creative, and conscientious who also just like to have a really good time! Everything has been planned with sustainability in mind.”

The festival aims to enable and encourage education and action on greener living through creative programming. Attendees can look forward to an incredible lineup of live performances, interactive workshops, film screenings, architectural tours, activities for the whole family, and more.

Highlights from the festival’s programme include conversations between Keith Brymer Jones and Wayne Hemingway, who will discuss the pottery production history of Potters Fields, along with their shared experiences in music, iconic London nightclubs, and building creative businesses. The festival will also feature Andrew Logan’s new mirrored artworks, ‘The Pollinators’, as part of a joyful parade. Andrew will present a procession of new artworks created using recycled and reimagined materials, alongside a colorful collection of wearable art pieces available for purchase.

Additionally, the festival will host talks, debates, and roundtables co-curated with London National Park City. Topics will include nature-based social prescribing, urban gardening, community intervention projects, and the hidden power of nature’s misfits. Visitors can also participate in a mass clay workshop by Clayground Collective, enjoy a community cookout called ‘Feast in a Field’ by social enterprise Beyond Food, and experience the unique melodies of the London Vegetable Orchestra.

‘In a Field by a Bridge’ promises to be a vibrant and inclusive festival that promotes sustainable living and community engagement. With its diverse programming, it aims to inspire individuals to adopt greener lifestyles and contribute to a more sustainable future.

The Price of AI: Manchester Video Production Experts Sound the Alarm

0

A Manchester-based video production company is cautioning businesses about the use of generative AI in their branding videos, citing valid concerns.

AI has been dominating headlines ever since the release of OpenAI’s chatbot, ChatGPT, in November 2022. With an increasing number of advanced tools surfacing on the web, the creative industry has not been immune to the influence of generative AI tools that claim to create original and engaging content with just a few words. Even industry giants like Adobe have ventured into the development of AI-based tools, aiming to simplify processes such as video production. However, the recent introduction of their “revolutionary” Firefly Software has sparked a significant debate around the impact of AI in the industry.

Video production experts, Eight Engines, are challenging the advent of AI in the field.

“While AI is an exciting development with numerous applications, it cannot replace human creativity and emotion. Emotion is the driving force behind sales, brand image, and eliciting reactions. This is precisely why video marketing delivers such high returns on investment,” explained Jack, the company’s director and a video production expert in Manchester.

According to a report from the University of Southern California, emotion plays a pivotal role in video production. The research reveals that emotional video advertisements achieve success rates of 31%, whereas rational content only results in a 16% success rate.

Emotion is a critical element in effective video production—memorable videos are those that evoke an emotional response from viewers. Unfortunately, AI has yet to fully grasp human emotion and convey it convincingly.

Current AI tools, such as ChatGPT, still struggle to fully comprehend human emotion, which ultimately affects their ability to convey any form of feeling. The output often feels cold, devoid of emotion, and, well… robotic.

Eight Engines also highlights the lack of originality in AI-driven video production.

“AI-generated videos lack originality and quality. Software like DALL.E requires expert human input before it can generate something remotely realistic. Often, the resulting videos appear laggy and resemble flip-books of images. AI still has a long way to go before it can compete with high-quality, human-made videos.”

This observation holds true—AI cannot create truly original content. The tool is trained on hundreds of examples of art produced by humans, and it merely reimagines those pieces. Consequently, anything it produces lacks originality, leading to uninspired and flat results when employed in video production.

For now, it seems that using AI in video production may not be advisable.

However, there is a viable solution.

Eight Engines offers their customers genuine, high-quality video production in Manchester and the surrounding areas. Their friendly team can assist in developing original ideas and bringing them to life at the highest standards, ensuring that your branding truly reflects the essence of your company.

Majority of UK’s Youth Unaware of Available Careers Advice, Reveals New Study

Leading youth employment company, Youth Group, has released new findings that highlight the concerning lack of access to support and guidance for young people as they embark on their career journeys in the UK’s challenging job market.

According to a recent study conducted by Youth Group, three-fifths (63%) of individuals between the ages of 18 and 25 are unaware of the existing career advice resources available to them. Additionally, nearly half (48%) of these young adults feel limited when it comes to accessing crucial career guidance.

These eye-opening statistics coincide with the highly anticipated launch of Season 3 of “My Duvet Flip: The Careers Show for Young People,” featuring Jack Parsons, the UK’s Chief Youth Officer, as the host. The latest season of the show is supported by returning Season 2 partners, Aviva & EY, and welcomes Totaljobs, a leading UK jobs platform, as a new collaborator.

Youth Group’s data reveals a clear disparity between the current provision of guidance and the needs of young job seekers. A significant majority of young individuals (16-24 years old) remain unaware of the wealth of career advice resources at their disposal. Furthermore, 48% of respondents express limitations in accessing the guidance they require.

Recognising this evident gap in careers guidance, the eagerly awaited third season of “My Duvet Flip: The Careers Show for Young People” is set to address these challenges head-on. In addition to the continued support from Aviva and EY, the new season proudly welcomes Totaljobs, part of the global digital recruitment platform The StepStone Group, as a valuable partner.

Totaljobs acknowledges the significant hurdles faced by young people in the UK and has previously reported that 48% of 16-18 year-olds feel deprived of adequate career advice during their time in education. With over two decades of experience in assisting individuals in finding ideal employment opportunities, Totaljobs is committed to collaborating with “My Duvet Flip” to offer educational content, job advice, and a platform that instills confidence in young people nationwide, empowering them to achieve their career aspirations.

Through this partnership, Totaljobs aims to inspire and empower the youth of the UK. Season 3, hosted by Jack Parsons, the UK’s Chief Youth Officer, continues to engage in candid conversations with esteemed global business leaders, entrepreneurs, and politicians. The show delves into their personal career journeys, extracting valuable tips and advice for viewers based on their own experiences. The series also provides insights into what drives these leaders to succeed and what motivates them to start each day with a positive mindset.

Season 2 of “My Duvet Flip” featured an impressive lineup of guests, including UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Debbie Hewitt (FA Chairman), Sebastian Dettmers (Chief Executive Officer of The StepStone Group), and Matt Brittin (President of Google Europe). The season garnered a remarkable 9 million views and generated over eight times more engagements compared to the previous season.

Youth Group CEO and the UK’s Chief Youth Officer, Jack Parsons, expressed his excitement for the upcoming third season of “My Duvet Flip,” emphasising his aim to provide motivational and honest conversations with some of Britain’s most accomplished business leaders, including Sebastian from The StepStone Group. Parsons stated, “The podcast is all about supporting the millions of young people across the UK and empowering them to achieve their goals.”

Sebastian Dettmers, Chief Executive Officer of The StepStone Group, commented,

“I am proud that Totaljobs will now be a partner of ‘The Duvet Flip’ for the 3rd season. Earlier this year, I guested on ‘My Duvet Flip’ and met Jack in person, and was very excited by his mission: to be an inspiration and support to young people in the world of work. This aligns perfectly with what we do at The StepStone Group and at Totaljobs, where we strive to help individuals find the right job for them.”

Phoebe Barter, Group Brand Director of Aviva, expressed pride in Aviva’s partnership with “My Duvet Flip” for another season, emphasising the importance of the show’s discussions on topics such as mental health, student pressures, career uncertainty, and the cost of living. Barter reaffirmed Aviva’s commitment to assisting individuals in solving their financial challenges, recognising that three out of five young people are unaware of the career advice available to them.

Jack Parsons, who has earned numerous accolades, including being recognised as LinkedIn’s ‘Top Voice for Young People’ and one of the ‘Top 15 Young Entrepreneurs to Watch,’ hopes that the third season of “My Duvet Flip” will inspire young individuals across the UK to recognise and fulfill their potential.

Prohibited by DVLA: BE73 END, FA73 DCK, and All ’73’ Number Plates

0

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) has released the list of banned number plates, and it includes all combinations with the number ’73,’ such as BE73 END and FA73 DCK.

Every year, two sets of number plates are issued, with the ’23’ plates released in March and the ’73’ plates scheduled for September.

Given the vast number of plates released—over a million each time—it’s not surprising that some combinations of letters and numbers could spell offensive words or phrases, or come close to doing so.

Prior to each release, the DVLA prohibits certain number plates that they have identified as being too offensive for use on the road.

Jon Kirkbright, sales director at Platehunter, a specialist in buying and selling private number plates, submitted a Freedom of Information request to the DVLA to obtain the exclusive list of banned plates. Unsurprisingly, the list includes offensive combinations such as BO73 LOX, HA73 GAY, LE73 ZZA, SH73 TER, and WH73 PWR.

Commenting on the banned plates, Jon stated, “With such a large number of plates being released at once, it’s not surprising that some of them are deemed unsuitable for the road. However, some of them are on the borderline, but I understand the DVLA’s decision to exercise extra caution. They are simply aiming to protect a significant source of revenue.”

According to Jon, the biannual release of new number plates also brings thousands of popular combinations, with names always being the most sought-after plates.

He predicted that EL73NOR, AN73 ONY, and FA73 EMA would be popular choices among the new releases, and he is currently selling these plates for prices ranging from £4,995 to £7,995.

Platehunter, which has been in the trade for 11 years and boasts over 56 million personalised number plates for sale, prides itself on being an affordable supplier. Plates are available starting from just £39 plus VAT and the transfer fee.

Jon further added, “Names always sell very well. People want their name on their car, and the market’s popularity is continuously growing. We have observed an increasing number of individuals interested in purchasing personalised plates for themselves, their children, or even their business vehicles.”

“Names or initials are what customers most often seek in their purchases. Each new release is an exciting opportunity for drivers to acquire plates that have never been available before. While we don’t offer pre-ordered plates, we strive to obtain 95% of the plates that our clients inquire about.”

Individuals in search of registration plates are encouraged to explore the Platehunter website. Jon emphasised, “If customers are unable to find what they are looking for, they can provide us with their specifications, and we will notify them if the desired plate becomes available.”

“We also have the ability to acquire any number plate from the DVLA auction, as long as it is legal and has never been issued before.”

For more information or assistance with purchasing or selling a private number plate, visit PlateHunter. Alternatively, you can connect with them on InstagramTwitter or Facebook.
