As part of an ongoing partnership with @square , director @chestyb learns how @lunetta_canberra is reviving an icon and refining service with Square Handheld. From morning prep to last plate, this is a story about the everyday rhythms of running a restaurant — and how the right tools help keep it all moving.

Over the past 10 years I’ve worked on a lot of visual comedy. Whilst I’ve loved every minute I’ve always had a passion for working with actors. I wanted to create a piece that not only lent into my love of dark, awkward humour but focused on the performances of the actors. The Breakup is a spec commercial that highlights the director/actor relationship and the results from that collaboration. Thanks to all everyone who worked on it for their amazing work!
