This week saw Sound Editor Nina Hartstone win the Oscar for the film Bohemian Rhapsody alongside John Warhurst. Rather than hitting the headlines for this well-deserved accolade, she has been the topic of discussion after the BBC website referred to her as a “Sound Editor Mum”. This dubious title has since been removed from their website, but, when you consider how ridiculous it would sound if you flagged up a man’s parental status in a similar headline, it’s pretty disappointing. Could you imagine Alfonso Cuarón being referred to as a ‘Film Directing Dad’, for example?

TellyJuice were very proud to create the branding for ITV’s star-studded Palooza event last week.

Why would Netflix show 8 hours of people chopping wood and then burning it in a fireplace?

If your creativity has run dry and you need a top up, you may be surprised to learn of one technique that could get the ideas flowing again… Booze!

London is one of the most diverse cities in the world, yet this isn’t reflected in advertising around the city. Today the women we see in adverts still fail to represent the women we see around us.

Did you know there’s a legal minimum working temperature in the UK (which is 16°C) however there is currently no upper limit set! Probably because our summer’s don’t usually require it…

Earlier this month we produced a 30 second commercial for ITV to promote the launch of the Ninja Warrior UK Aqua Park. Dave, Maddie, Lauren and the crew spent the day filming at the park on a lovely warm June day. However, despite the fun going on on-camera, they stayed completely dry.

Like 4 million (odd) others, we have been completely caught by the Love Island bug. Natalie has been known to stay up ridiculously late after a night out to watch it on catch up, Bethan hasn’t had the time or inclination to watch any other TV series that doesn’t fit

Every year ITV holds a grand star-studded event where they showcase their upcoming content to industry insiders. This year it was a very glamorous and glitzy evening held at the London Palladium.

The TellyJuice crew recently filmed a promo for SAS: Who Dares Wins for Viasat World. Five ex-special forces soldiers put 30 recruits through their SAS selection process to see who is the most resilient both physically and psychologically. In order to show how grueling these tests can be we cast
