Sigur Rós

Mono Industries was asked to design a web shop for Icelandic band Sigur Rós by their management company.

A simple and elegant design solution was required to work alongside the band’s evocative visuals. Great attention to detail was given to the layout and typography within the shop as it was felt that the usual online shopping experience would not be appropriate in this instance.

The shop was built by e-commerce merchandise experts Sandbag.

U2

Mono Industries was asked to photo-edit the first version of U2.com to coincide with the release of ‘All That You Can’t Leave Behind.’

The site was a complete retrospective which included all stages of the band’s career.

A bit of an odd one this. We were asked to create computer drawings so that the show designers and the band themselves could begin to see how the stage set would look for the ‘Up’ world tour of 1999.

Cambridge Folk Festival

Being based in Cambridge, we jumped at the chance to film the Cambridge Folk Festival back in 2001.

We filmed lots of footage during the build up to the festival as well as the weekend itself on two Super 8 cameras. It was a rather expensive way of filming but worth it for that Super 8 ‘feel’.

BBC Radio 2 (sponsors of the event at that time) stumped up some money for us to edit the film professionally and eventually the film got shown at the prestigious Cambridge Film Festival as part of the short film programme.
