Video for Drink Magazine Shanghai

Scissorhands recently filmed the highly acclaimed bartender, Marian Beke, for Drink Magazine Asia. During the shoot editor-in-chief Dan Bignold interviewed Marian to discover how he sets about adding those finishing touches to his cocktails that have made his bar, Nightjar, such a popular destination for London's more discerning drinker.

Drink Magazine is bringing the very best of western drinks culture to China and Marian is actively engaged in educating Chinese bartenders in the nuances of creating the very best cocktails.

Our latest short film...

Team Scissorhands entered this year's Sci-Fi London 48 hour film challenge and, we think, have created a rather lovely film. Disappointingly it wasn't selected but it was a great experience and, although it involved a weekend of no sleep, it was more than worth it.

Scissorhands enters Sci-Fi London's 48 hour film challenge

This year Scissorhands enters Sci-Fi  London's 48 hour film challenge. Over the weekend 12/13th April we had 48 hours to take a supplied line of dialogue, a prop and a title and weave them into a finished film. All writing, filming, editing, in fact everything that goes into making and finishing a film, had to be done in those 48 hours.

The Digney family - good friends of ours fortunately - lent us their children and home to make the film. Can't thank them enough as perhaps they hadn't realised quite what an undertaking having a film crew in your home is!

Edie and Arthur Digney were amazing and extremely tolerant of an 'alien' invasion of their bedroom

Title: Jury of One
Line: "Maybe I am missing something, but we can't just walk in and take it, can we?"
Prop: WE SEE A CHARACTER OPEN A BLACK BOX, WE DON'T SEE THE CONTENTS

Johny directs for Maverick Sabre

Congratulations to Johny who has put together a wonderful promo for the highly talented Maverick Sabre. Edited by our old friend Ben Canny as well!

My new showreel

Its's been a while since I've done a showreel but I enjoyed editing my work to music by the very talented Lorde. Must be one of the last people to have heard this particular track but it's really quite joyous. 

Johny's short for the Reed film competition

Johny has dipped his toe in the narrative film genre with this entry for the Reed employment agency film competition. It's a fun little short which Johny turned around with no money and near enough no time. We're hoping that it makes the final cut as it would be well deserved recognition for Johny's talent and hard work.
