BORDEAUX, France, July 6, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Last 6 of May was a very special day for BEM's Community. 400 students and staff of the Bordeaux Management School, dressed in red, were out in the city streets to create a genuine human tidal wave. The filming of the Buzz was a success and an astounding performance.
The reason for this first time activity was not only to show how firmly established BEM - Bordeaux Management School - is at local and international levels, but also to do something really different and create an event that would gather all members of the school, said Philip McLaughlin, Dean of BEM.
To the rhythm of Banquet by the band Bloc Party, this performance was filmed, without rehearsal, in a single afternoon, finishing in front of Bordeaux city hall, where the school's logo was created in human form. An original format which changes from Lip dubs :-)
Check out the film on YouTube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95sfZFm71NE, share it with everyone and make it Buzz!
This project has required a year preparation bringing together students and staff from all BEM's programmes.
The school has wanted to prove its very responsible attitude in preparing the students for their future professional life, especially those involved in designing and organising the project: obtaining permission from the authorities, waiving the video image rights for each participant, purchasing the broadcasting rights from the copyright holders for the music, obtaining insurance policy for the filming, and producing in France the custom-made red outfits.
