Commercial Feature: Hype DC X Reebok - “Club C: 40 Years of an Icon”
“We looked to build 3 vastly different looks within one day, from big soft daylight sources, to thin slivers of hard light sweeping an orange and teal set. A mix of slow shutter, locked off shots and dirty handheld.” - Cameron Mitchell, cinematographer
“The constraints of a studio shoot challenge you to be more creative. It pushes me to experiment with techniques outside my usual directing style.” - Ben J. Read, director

Very humbled to share that ‘Porcelain’ has been selected for Byron Bay International Film Festival @byronbayfilmfestival and has been nominated for Young Australian Filmmaker of the Year award!
I’m forever grateful and proud of the endless talent of the beautiful people who brought this film to life, whether that be in front or behind camera. You all play an integral part.
Porcelain is more than just a film, but tells a story through the eyes of my mother as a refugee child in Australia. It’s an indescribable feeling to have this story of love, suffering and hardships play alongside some of the most talented filmmakers.
We’ve also been lucky enough to be selected for Viet Film Fest in California (@vietfilmfest ) receiving a nomination for Best Short Film and Best Actor, and Evolution Mallorca Film Festival in Spain (@evolutionmallorcafilmfestival )
Beyond proud of everyone involved 🫶
