Gorgeous commercial for SMOL, directed by @ben__perry , four one shot scenes edited together to deliver a strong message. D.O.P. @alikingdop made each scene drip with gorgeous sunlight. All shot ahead of schedule, thanks to @armourylondon for having me on board! P.S. I use SMOL and you should too ;)
How many celebrities can you fit on one cover? Well Charlotte Rutherford had a good go on this one, it was a busy few days with so many people coming and going but Charlotte Rutherford the photographer, @charlie__chops , was so charming with all the stars it made my job easy. She also takes a great picture, scroll across for some of the amazing single shots. Aaaaaand guess which one I got starstruck over (scroll to the end to see).
As I've been away on longform projects and having a baby, I thought I would shamelessly post some awesome projects I have been working on over the next few days. First up this beautiful and creative Specsavers advert. Directed by the supremely talented @dan_emmerson_ Shot in the summer with all it's beautiful tones by Ruben Dechamps @rwdfilm The brief was pretty open and these guys were super creative with their approach. Most hectic moment was energising twenty kids under the big parachute... for three hours! LOL. A real pleasure to work on. Thanks @andrew.rawson and @somesuchandco for having me!
Lucky enough to have spent the past week working in Florida, USA. Worked with some incredible and kind people and aside from doing some great work had the best time!

Jack Hamilton @jackch_ Thanks to producer @chrisraymurdoch for having me on board. And huge thanks to my team 2nd AD @robinson316 3rd AD @laurencr.moon That was a lot of cast to deal wth!

Delighted to have worked on this with the creative juggernaut that is @jordan_hemingway .

I'm really bad at posting about things I work on, but this was a pretty awesome day in the hills. You know it's going to be busy when you have a Porsche, a Ucrane and... 80 sheep! Thankfully @harrisonboyce knew exactly what he was doing and directed this beautiful ad. Thanks to @revolutionproductions.co for having me: always a pleasure to head up North.
Great to see these two films out. Directed by @jordan_hemingway , shot by @#jarinblaschke and 1st AD'd by me! We shot out in Estonia amongst some beautiful landscapes and enjoyed the local hospitality. Personal highlight was repeatedly asking the local production team why we couldn't take a cherry picker up that very steep hill and the reindeer meatballs!
Some new work I 1st AD'd these fun little commercials for Bradstone. Directed by @ato.yankey and shot by @rikburnell . Shooting MOCO always presents some challenges and shooting two of these was tricky! But we had a great team and it's always great being on set with your mates!!! Thanks to @armourylondon for having me! Also Ato and Rick love to plan meticulously hence the totally awesome animatic!!!
I was delighted to get asked back to 1st AD another video for @fontainesband Carjitsu was the brief! Such a creative idea and video from director @lunacarmoon and beautifully shot under very difficult circumstances by @jackch_ A night shoot in South London and the classic British summertime didn't disappoint, it rained all night. Made me all the more grateful for the support from my superstar 2nd AD @alexmcallister Thanks @prodcofficial and @chrisraymurdoch and @theohuewilliams for having me!!! P.S. this band and this album are awesome check them out!
