We were honoured to produce the global campaign & all social media assets for Toyota for the 2020 Olympics.
A star studded roster of athletes from around the world flew in to create a meaningful body of work that we look forward to sharing with you next year prior to the Olympics!
When Nicolai Fuglsig requested Richard de Jager for his up-coming television commercial for the new electric Ford Mustang, we knew this would be a dynamic project.
The result: a fast paced, ultra cool and edgy commercial that really showcases what Richard is capable in terms of scale.

Dorel chose to shoot with us again in Cape Town this year and we just love the outcome.
A series of engaging and authentic imagery for a brand that truly cares about their clients.
They are innovators of products that protect children.
Last year we produced the campaign that launched the first baby seat with an airbag.
This year, its an app that reminds you that your child is still in the car.
This might seem unheard of but it is a big issue around the world and Dorel has found a way to ensure the safety of your child, yet again. Here are a few of our favourite visuals.

We are honored to have been chosen to fly to Berlin to shoot a brand film for the hair care brand Martinsson King. The challenge was to create an engaging, visually impactful 30 minute film for their global launch event.
The film, which has 4 separate stories, is directed by our very own producer, Deborah Bacher. This debut was exciting and creatively rewarding. She worked closely with the Creative Director, David Glover, over a period of two months to not only handle the production aspects of the shoot, but to create a treatment that would be showcased to distributors and hair care professionals from around the world at the event in Sweden.
Here are 2 of the 4 films.
