- Darkoo - 2 in 1 EPCover for Darkoo's EP dropping 16th of July for 2 in 1 - we designed and set built a blue bath, and created 6/7 fake mirror panels and shot her at a 360 degree angle with the reflections and bathroom all built in cgi and retouch. A huge team effort getting this together - shot by Dan Matthews.
- choose giffgaffWe created an out of home and social campaign - ‘choose giffgaff’ with simple no nonsense messaging to cut through all the noise and to amplify giffgaff’s beliefs. The creative loosely nods to electioneering using recognised voting boxes as the format and tells the individual stories of giffgaff members across the country to reinforce the fact giffgaff is run by you.
- LUSH Bath BombsA series of 3 abstract mixed media short films for cruelty free cosmetics brand LUSH to celebrate 30 years of their signature Bath Bombs. Each film captures the feeling of a different bomb; the Intergalactic, Geo-Phyzz and Rocket Science. The films were featured on social channels and shot with @danmatthewsdan
