Throwing it back to the follow up S2 campaign I created for a show that truly captured the voice and heartbeat of South Ah youth. ✨😎 From the very first season we followed the young gang at Ollie’s High as they navigated love, friendship, identity and growing up, stories that felt real, loud, messy and beautifully ours. Devastated that it’s over but working on this title was more than just a job, it was a deeply fulfilling journey that allowed me to get to know and fall in love with this special cast and the world they brought to life. Shout Out @tokalmtabane @royal_lebo @ayakha.ntunja @officialkealeboga_masango @thabiso_ramz Forever grateful to have been part of something that resonated so loudly with a generation. ❤️ Showmax Marketing Manager: Vuyokazi Mhlope Senior Art Director: Karabo Makenna Senior Marketing Producer: Beth Maaroganye Creative Director: Colin Makhubela Designer: Robbie Makwakwa RHO Photography: Paul Samuels Stylist: Francois Stylist Assistant: Heidi Stylist Assistant: Khekhe Executive Producer: Lulama Mabindisa Sopazi Producer: Bareng Molatjane Production/Cast Coordinator: Mkateko Mahumane Digital Assistant: Zwele Buthelezi Lighting Assistant: Andile Tshaba Lighting Assistant: Lerato Ntsiso Make Up: Elaine Ngubeni Hair Stylist: Matlogonolo Podile Hair Stylist: Thabie Ndlela

Doing my best to close off a trying year and posting way after the hype has died down, but this work is still riding the high, as you ca still catch it out there in wild... One of the biggest highlights of 2025 for me was working on this DStv campaign where i got to blend the worlds of ⚽️ and 🎬our unique shows, bringing our stars into one shared visual world. A massive highlight was working with the likes of @babycele__ @therealtekomodise @jimmytau_2 @lemogangtsipa @ayakha.ntunja @zamani_mbatha @sweet_guluva just some of the best talent we have in Mzansi. A huge shoutout to @lesedi_mothoagae and @paulmsam , the dream duo behind the lens, who absolutely brought this campaign to life with some seriously epic visuals. This production team was proper locked in 🔑 Here’s hoping 2026 brings more opportunities like this 🙏🏾✨ DSTV Head of Product Marketing: Nokulunga Ncube Head of Creative Services Marketing: Lauren McInnes Head of Digital Content & Channels Marketing: Kellan Alexander Senior Marketing Producer: Beth Maaroganye Senior Art Director: Karabo Makenna Senior Designer: @jasminedaniellemaistry Designer: Lindukuhle Mphoreng RHO Photography: @lesedi_mothoagae Photography: @paulmsam Stylist: @francois._ferreira Stylist Assistant: Heidi Stylist Assistant: @khekhe_or_cakes Executive Producer: Lulama Mabindisa Sopazi Producer: Bareng Molatjane Production/Cast Coordinator: Mkateko Mahumane Digital Assistant: @izwele Lighting Assistant: @andile.tshaba Lighting Assistant: Thato Mabena Lighting Runner: Richard Smith Digital Assistant: Thulani Kubeka Lighting Assistant: Lerato Ntiso Lighting Assistant: Blessing Ndlovu Make Up: Miriam Machucha Make Up: Camilla Mhlambi Hair Stylist: @matlhogonolo_ Hair Stylist: Daniel Sibata Hair Stylist: Bomzi

Our @48hourfilmproject short, “Calypso”, is officially hitting the big screen! Catch it in the Group B screening block on Friday 21 November at Mall of Africa. This project was super stressful, chaotic, anxiety inducing, sleep depriving and honestly, I loved every second of it. There’s something dope about creating a film off the cuff, under insane pressure, with a team that just makes it all worth it. Shoutout to the incredible Director @le5edi who steered this wild ship with so much vision and heart. And teaming up with my brother @lisolomzipikoli on art direction and set design? Pure 🔥🔥🔥 Not to mention our amazing cast & crew, who brought this crazy story to life with so much energy and commitment. If you’re around, pull through and come watch what we managed to cook up in just 48 hours. 🎥✨

This year I’ve been invited to take part in @makethingsmake a series of workshops centered around discussing the creative industry economics. I’ll be unpacking my experience of creativity in the broadcasting and entertainment space. This year they have collaborated with @afterschoolisafterschool a powerful initiative to help shape young creative minds. As someone who’s spent years navigating the world of creative direction within broadcasting, it’s an honour to share insights and speak alongside some creative beasts. If you’re curious about the business of creativity, or just want to be inspired, stiek uit!! It’s going to be real and insightful. Let’s make things make sense. 💭🔥 Date: Saturday, 30 August 2025 Time: 10:00 - 14:00 Venue: Imfundo Middle School, 18 Chamberlain Road, Evaton

Still buzzing from my visit to Zeitz MOCAA. Walked in not knowing what to expect and left completely mind-blown!! An incredible array of exhibitions and immersive experiences, each one more powerful and thought provoking than the last. It’s clear this curation was designed to challenge, inspire, and awaken something deep. If you're in Cape Town, go experience it for yourself. Your soul will thank you. 🙌🏾✨

Pics from a recent trip to CPT. Incredible days spent venturing out, camera in hand, chasing light, waves and every view I could find. Nature really showed off in a beautiful way. 🌊⛰️✨

💻 On Sunday I stepped into the future. A mind-expanding exhibition that dares to reimagine our relationship with A.I, democracy, and the planet. Imagine A.I for Dignity – Feminine Visions for Regeneration is a radical exploration of digital humanism and the urgent need to rewrite the narratives shaping our technological age. Visions of a future where A.I serves dignity, not domination. 🌿🤖 A must-see for anyone questioning where we’re headed. @niroxfoundation @eva0707 @claudia_larcher @acfpretoria That was so stimulating!!
