New work: P&O Ferries TVC series.
This is the first in the series, each concept done in one take 😉 and just a few days of crafting and bottling joy out at sea essentially. Something to cut through all the noise.
I was also excited, having not done a huge amount of work with VFX integrated into my real-world stories, so it was fun to direct alongside some very talented artists covering all departments… Great people working alongside great people.
