Adjani Salmon (@s.adjani ) directs this conceptual poetic piece that realises the complexities of anxiety. A brilliant poem by @lionheartfelt . The immaculately timed score builds the tension while intensifying hand movements amplify the sense of impending panic. It is a brilliant, uncomfortable, unflinchingly honest portrayal of anxiety, a film that no doubt will stay with you.

On ‘Dreaming Whilst Black’, Salmon comments that "We present the story as a minefield
where we show things which can be funny but might be racist, and we’re not going to tell you which is which. You’ve just got to laugh wherever you feel fit and ask yourself why."
We are delighted to announce that Adjani Salmon has signed to Snapper Films for Commercial Representation in the UK. Adjani Salmon is a British-Jamaican filmmaker who is best known for creating and acting in the critically acclaimed, hit Web Series/BBC pilot ‘Dreaming Whilst Black'. He is on his way to becoming a global storyteller. Salmon narratively and visually weaves together worlds that talk to the daring dreamers and the truth-seeking souls. Stories that make us laugh, that unite us and that have the power to reflect humanity at our most gruesome, and at our most glorious. We cannot wait to start working with such an innovative, vibrant young director who is teeming with ambition and vision.
We are ecstatic to welcome the brilliant Sara Sugarman to Snapper Films. Sugarman is the award-winning director behind this year’s feel-good hit Save The Cinema. As a director, Sugarman’s warmth, spectacular wit and irresistible energy shine through all her work. She creates captivating films that are riddled with joy and seeped in truth. She is looking to create commercials that use the power of persuasion to ignite compassion and connection. Given her track record, her pioneering passion and her overall vibe, we think she will have a lot to offer the UK commercials industry.
@madebymapp Peelz campaign ran during the Super Bowl. Teaching the next generation of budding American football players the essential art of peeling their oranges. Imperative, informative and very funny, no doubt leaving perfectly peeled orange peels strewn across America. We are so glad that John Birk / (and Steve Mapp) had the opportunity to impart their orange-peeling wisdom across the luckiest states in the US. A huge congratulations to all involved!
… You sure will!
Gurinder chats to @lbbonlinepix . She discusses the importance of off-screen representation, Snoop Dogg and her determination to make an ad that will become part of the cultural vernacular. Given her track record and her wit, creativity and tireless energy, we believe that creating a culture-defining ad is EXACTLY what she will do. LINK IN BIO!

@stefanoandalejandra new work colourfully navigates through life's hurdles, visually swirling through all the unexpected twists and turns in this brilliantly bold spot for Santalucia Insurance. Prepare for lightning bolts, impeccable colour palettes and the obligatory cute dog!

We are delighted to share this brilliant montage of Dolly Well's finest moments as a Director/Writer/Actor (all round triptych). She is the holy trinity of the filmmaking world. Her creativity, talent and sense of humour radiate through the screen. We are so excited to bring her hybrid of talent into the commercial production landscape.
A big thank you to @whitehousepost for putting this together
Some wacky new work from the ultra-talented, ultra-original @stefanoandalejandra involving lasers shooting from eyeballs and walls covered in clocks, of course.

MAPP’S WORK
1. ‘Mmmmm’, The Marvellous Mrs Maisel
2. ‘MINI, Ahhhhhhh’ , MINI Countryman
3. ‘The Gift’, Western Canada Lottery
4. ‘Friday Afternoon’, Webflow
5. Amazon x Jurassic World
MAPP first caught Snapper’s attention with this hilarious mockumentary-style commercial for Peelz. It features the absurd, deluded yet, endearingly determined ‘John Birk’ who, after graduating from the ‘Institute of Citrus Technology’ is confronted with the growing realisation that his job is, in fact, utterly pointless.No doubt, A bitter peel to swallow.
We are thrilled to announce that MAPP (@madebymapp ) has joined the Snapper for UK representation.
MAPP creates commercials that are pierced by his trademark sharp comedic dialogue. He crafts quirky, loveable characters that reflect humanity at our hyperbolic best, bought to life by his exquisite shots and meticulous scores. His films are brimming with passion and humour, as Is he. MAPP is a delightful human being who we are feeling incredibly fortunate to have him join the Snapper Shoal.
