Klipp og Lim has recently finished the production of an ambitious film for NCE Instrumentation.
Here’s a little background information on the project: The Norwegian Centres of Expertise (NCE) programme is jointly owned and implemented by the three main Norwegian innovation agencies: Innovation Norway, the Research Council of Norway and SIVA.
NCE has appointed twelve strong clusters consisting of world class enterprises in their field. The aim is to further development of the selected clusters to become motors for industry development through cooperation between companies, researchers, colleagues and public authorities.
One of the clusters is NCE Instrumentation in Trøndelag. It consists of companies which supply advanced management and communications solutions to companies in offshore, maritime, fish farming, energy and medicine.
Klipp og Lim was given the task to produce a informational film that promoted the idea of clusters and the work of NCE Instrumentation. There was also made a film targeting students, telling about the rich opportunities for education and work in the region, and there’s also an english version in the making.
In 2010 NTNU is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the foundation of NTH, the Norwegian Institute of Technology, one of NTNU’s predecessors, along with 100 years of the Student Union and NTNUI, Norway’s largest athletic association. It so happens that 2010 also marks the 250th anniversary of the Royal Norwegian Society of Sciences and Letters.
Klipp og Lim was commissioned to develop visual profile elements for this occasion. We made a series of illustrations and decorative elements that would give the promotional material relating to the anniversary recognizable features. The common denominator for this output was the emphasis on lines connecting entities suggesting historical continuity and relations between institutions, exemplified in the illustration above.
Maneten Medusa (Medusa the Jellyfish) is the first book in a series, authored by Margrethe Geelmuyden and published by Aschehoug, due to hit the bookshelves in April 2010. In this first book Medusa sets out to find a mirror so she can check up on her looks before going to a ball. Things don’t go as planned and she finds herself stuck to a sea urchin. In a distance an old crab is approaching. The books will be illustrated by us in brilliant, flat colors!
This has been a productive and stimulating year for Klipp og Lim. We have gained the trust of new patrons, acquired new talented people and moved to Innherredsveien 7.
We’re really looking forward to embark on 2010! February we tear down a wall and expand our office space, and make more room for our production team. We’ll also rent out space and four resourceful people will be located at our address.
2010 also marks our 10th anniversary. We take pride in the fact that we have achieved to build a company that has sustained the test of time. Indeed a cause for celebration.
We’ll be back January the 4th — until then, Merry Christmas and a happy new year to everyone!
Our long time involvement in Regnmakerne is at an end. Regnmakerne (The Rainmakers) is a national concept for children initiated and funded by Enova SF. The goal is to involve and create interest and engagement for the energy subject among children and youngsters.
Klipp og Lim has for several years been a subcontractor for Scanpartner on this project. Initially our animator and illustrator Lars was commissioned to illustrate the three books about Regnmakerne by Klaus Hagerup. The characters he developed have since been an integral part of the rainmaker universe and have been featured on TV, web, printed matter and giveaways. Scanpartner has decided to serve the Enova account in-house.
As our involvement with Regnmakerne expired, Håvard chose to pursue a professional actor career and entered a three year course at Teaterproduksjon og skuespillerfag in Verdal. We wish him good luck in his future endeavors! We’d also like to thank Scanpartner for the collaboration and extend our greetings to Enova.
We’ll leave you with one of the spots we created where Ruben gives us tips on how to save energy at home.
We recently finished a trailer and a movie poster for our upcoming short film; Visdom.
We’ve also started the editing of the film. The shooting took place in October — during two very long nights, we manage to turn Larsen cafe into a a daylight scene. The cafe holds a meeting between two old friends on different tracks in life. They both carry a heavy burden from the past which up to now has been kept under lid.
A sudden meeting with the dentist stir up suppressed memories. The film is directed by Vidar Dahl and Jøran Wærdahl and financially supported by Midtnorsk Filmsenter. Visdom will be launched during spring 2010.
We are proud to be a part of the very first Trondheim Documentary Festival. The festival is held at Dokkhuset here in the centre of town between the 27th and 29th of November. This festival is a collective achievement between several different organizations like Cintemateket Trondheim, Trondheim Journalistlag and many others.
Our contribution to this festival is the logo and profile design. This is distributed through a poster, a big screen slide at Dokkhuset, a website, t-shirts and other printed items.
Cielo (which translates into “heaven”) started their own small chocolate factory here in Trondheim 3 years ago. Earlier these heavenly lumps of calories only were to be obtained in a few local outlets, but now there is an alternative.
We’ve recently completed their new website, which utilizes the Snop CMS. This merry occasion also marks Klipp og Lim’s first venture in the land of e-commerce as we are proud to present a neat and intuitive web shop. Drag items into the shopping basket and check out, simple as that. We’re also in the process of developing a new identity, the logo seen above included.
Cielo was earlier blogged by Made In Norway Now as well, and we suspect more will pick up on these tasty chocolate pieces in the time to come! You can also follow the boys on Twitter.
After a few hectic days, we’ve revamped our site, made some big improvements and launched a few new services. First of all, it should be optimized to run smoother now in several ways. Here’s a short list of the changes and additions:
New front page: Minor adjustments, new graphic, new links and random case studies showing.
New services: A brand new section introducing our services! More on these in the time to come. Our newly launched site for Indikatoren™ is also worth checking out.
Portfolio: Updated, and with case studies. We’ve working on putting up recent jobs we’ve been working on the last weeks.
New info: Renamed ‘About’, this section has gotten a makeover. Also features a slider that in a quick and visual way sums us up and how we work.
Hope you like the changes! On a side note, our site was also featured on Minimalist Approach, a new website promoting minimalistic design from around the world.
We’re pleased to announce that we won a Site of the day-award on The CSS Awards! The CSS Awards is ‘the gallery of the most prestigious websites in the world created with CSS‘.
Also, apologies for the absence of updates the last weeks. We’ve been very busy working on several projects but promise more frequent updates in the time to come. New jobs, news and some changes to this site are coming soon!
