“We shot the elevator scene at Sydney Harbour Bridge at sunrise, then we flew to Tokyo and scouted the rooftop/streets that night. We did a recce the next day, shot the following day, and then we flew to Rome. To nail the match cuts and transitions, everything had to be meticulously planned, down to the smallest detail. I was committed to shooting everything in-camera, which ended up being our biggest challenge. We had to move fast, but it was bloody good fun, and our legendary crew absolutely smashed it in all three countries.” - Ben Dean, director Atmos Rewards - “Go Further” Director: @dissc0 DP: @mrjustinbrown Editor: @ramidaguiar Colorist: @rickygausis Production Designers: @imo_walsh & @rikaonline 1st ADs: Adam Wareham & Ichi Watanabe & Luca Pardini Sound Designers: @waitwhosmeg & @henrygilchrist Creative Director: Max Eastman Art Director: Laurel Lunsford Line Producers: @ntbrownhm & @hollyannnwinter & @cecileleroyb & Misako Furukawa Production Manager: Daisy Bray Executive Producers: @davud_k & nickyfullah & @jsorton Starring: @luluhowes & @alexanderchard Agency: @mekanism Production Company: @magna.studios Post Houses: @cabinedit & @the.trafik Sound Studio: @barkingowl_ Camera: ARRI ALEXA 35 Lenses: Canon K35s

Welcome to the Wanda family, Ben Dean! @dissc0 Hailing from Australia, Ben shoots and crafts in equal measure. His films are sharp yet unexpected, always packed with character. His former life as an art director at top agencies like Anomaly and 72andSunny shines through — he instinctively gets what a client needs, and knows exactly how to make it look good. We’re thrilled to have him on the Wanda roster. Check out his reel on our website 🌐
