Industry Rocks the House at Mill L.A. Launch Party & Fireflies Reception

Thursday, September 29, 2011

If you like the thought of a sexy burlesque queen pouring champagne dangling from a loft ceiling in a hammock, drinking exotic cocktails like the Royal Hampshire, The Pink Troyan and The Firefly, and listening to DJ Zen Freeman spinning everything from Adele to Fleetwood Mac, The Mill L.A.'s Launch Party and Fireflies Ride Welcome Reception was the place to be Wednesday night. Over 400 industry colleagues and friends-including Old Spice phenom Isaiah Mustafa and director extraordinaire Tom Kuntz who made a special guest DJ appearance-turned up to celebrate The Mill's spectacular new space and the Fireflies arrival from San Francisco. This year the riders raised $60,000 for City of Hope cancer research.

"It was amazing to host so many of our favorite agency clients, directors, editors, producers, artists and friends in our new digital studio space," says The Mill L.A.'s MD, Ben Hampshire. "We have hunkered down and worked hard together over the years and it's always great to have some fun in a more relaxed setting! A big thank you to everyone who came and made it such a fun party."

And if you missed the party, here are some photo highlights by our own Nick Sanders. Enjoy!
