Neither Lipdub nor Flashmob: It's BEM's Buzz!
BORDEAUX, France, July 6, 2010-- 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,

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.
