Rainy days = Productive days
I’ve grown to love rainy days in Hong Kong. I’m more productive in the office, the city gets a wash and it makes the streets lined with neon lights a little brighter.

Red Bull Breakdancing Contest Barcelona 2011
Breakdancing will never get old for me. B-boys just seem to be getting more and more tech with their moves. “Teatre Grec hosted one of the most prestigious B-boying international events. More than 1,400 people have attended Red Bull BC One Qualifier and witnessed the victory of the Portuguese Lagaet, who has already ensured his participation in the World Final, where the best 16 B-boys in the world will compete on November 26th in Russia.”

What goes on tour stays on tour
When you have mates in town. There’s only one place to take them….. Wan Chai!! Everyone has a story about a night out in Wan Chai. It’s driven many a man mad with temptation. The people in this photo have asked for their faces to be blurred due to ‘the misses will kill me’ protocol.

Tuhinternational. office in Australia
Since branching to Hong Kong. You soon realise when space is measured by square foot not square metre. Space is a luxury. Lucky for my business, as long as I have a laptop and WiFi I can pretty much work from anywhere.

Batman The Dark Knight Rises from anjes on Vimeo.
A bit short for my liking, but I guess that’s why they call it a teaser. Don’t get too excited just yet. It’s not due to launch until July 20, 2012!

Frank Liew
Jarrett Reynolds
Kevin Poon
Mike West
Taj Reid
We all have our ‘must haves’ when it comes to travelling. For me I seem to travel with more and more I.T. equipment. What started off as just a mobile phone is now an iPhone and a Blackberry, a 15 inch or 17″ MacBook Pro, my iPad, chargers, Leica ‘Safari Edition’ camera, Burton travel hoodie, tracksuit pants, Monocle notepad, magazines, two packs of cigarettes, a spare lighter, business cards, sunglasses, lip balm, passport case and Beats Headphones. All this goes into my LV carry-on wheelie.
Here’s some highlight shots from the interview. Including Taj Reid, Mike West, Kevin Poon, Jarrett Reynolds and Frank Liew.

Jay-Z “Decoded” campaign wins Integrated Grand Prix and Titanium at Cannes
Article by: Fast Company
New York agency Droga5 continued its hot streak at the Cannes International Festival of Creativity with big wins for its Bing/Jay-Z “Decoded” campaign in the key Titanium/Integrated Lions category. The campaign won the Integrated Grand Prix and nabbed a Titanium Lion, winning over a jury that was “looking for the bravest idea.”
The Titanium Lion was launched in 2003 to recognize emerging forms of brand work that wouldn’t neatly fit into the existing award categories; the Integrated Lion was added in 2005, though the definition of what falls under each title has been fluid.
Jury chair Bob Scarpelli, the chairman of DDB Worldwide, acknowledged that the definition of an integrated campaign has shifted and that today, “the best ideas are integrated into culture.” Scarpelli called the campaign, which has also picked up Grand Prix in the Outdoor and Film Craft categories, “bold, innovative, interactive, immersive. It’s creating media.” There was no Titanium Grand Prix awarded.
