Quintessence promotional film

Quintessence Fragrances came to us for a promotional film which brought together all the thinking and effort that had gone into their recent rebrand and combined that with footage to create an emotive film.

We’d helped them with photographic content for their new website so creating the film seemed a natural extension of this.

The brief was ambitious - we needed to reference the entire supply chain and the complete set of processes that go into fragrance production - so library footage combined with archive was the was to go.

We wrote copy and then picture researched, making use of fast expanding selection of excellent stock footage platforms now available.

AI Voiceover gave us the flexibility we needed to experiment with a few creative options…and it was a first for us and worked very well!

Businesses of Sussex

I've spent the last year filming around East Sussex, talking to businesses about why they have based themselves in this beautiful county. The breadth and depth of businesses operating out of the area was a revelation...who knew that the world's fastest camera - used to capture atomic level explosions - was developed by Photek in Hastings!

It's been a sizeable job - 18 businesses covered, 25 days of filming, 522 emails exchanged, 932 miles travelled, weeks of editing and motion graphics….but its all been very rewarding.

All the district and borough films can be seen here

Botham wines at Balfour winery.

Botham wines are launching a broad range of wines and spirits. Some of which will be available at Tesco. Others, such are their signature editions (one of which is a collaboration with the Balfour winery) will only be available via their website.

We were on hand to capture Ian as he went to the Balfour winery to discuss their collaboration with hospitality and wine entrepreneur, Richard Balfour-Lynn.

Head shots for WTW

Actually revising a project from sometime ago. Headshots for the insurer Willis Towers Watson. Over 200 people spread across 5 days.

Intense but the process of capturing a personality in a single instant remains challenging and rewarding. When you get it right, it’s magic!

Photos for Quintessence

Quintessence Fragrances brought us on board to oversee photography for their rebrand.

We set up a two-day product shoot including prop sourcing and production design. This was followed by a day at the Newhaven factory, photographing the people and processes behind this fantastic company.

Pega and Lloyds TSB

Regular client, Pegasystems US commissioned us to set up and shoot a Q&A for their annual get together, Pega World.

With limited time, Raphael and Juan (pictured above), did a first class job getting through an in-depth Q&A session discussing Pega’s offering and how it integrates with Lloyds TSB. You can see the finished film here.

Camera and sound team were extremely professional adapting to last minute changes to location…blame the producer !
