Projects
- LIFEWTR - Life Unseen3 out of every 4 American's don't see themselves reflected in the film, music, art or fashion they encounter. This creates a ripple effect - young creatives don't think they can make it and we end up with less art from different perspectives. Lifewtr believes in the power of creativity and wanted to change things. First, we wanted to use film show the emotional side of being unseen simply because of who you love, the ability of your body, your gender or the colour of your skin.
- Guinness - Compton CowboysIt was an honour to help tell the latest iconic Guinness story. Within the Made of More brand platform, the Compton Cowboys were the perfect fit. The Cowboys of Compton are a group of extraordinary men who rescue horses that are often heading to the slaughterhouse. In caring for them they find friendship and responsibility, overcoming their tough upbringings in one of America's toughest cities. I had the opportunity to take this incredible story and make it famous through new media. We took a s
- Family ActionBrief: Every family has it’s issues. In fact, almost 38 million people in the UK are affected by the main pressures on families such as money, health, and quality time together but 61% don't do anything about them. We need to erase the stigma of these issues and help people realise that everyone has problems so they can face them together. Solution: The Family Monster Project. A campaign that visualised every families monsters into something that can be faced head on. A monster that lurks in t

Half of our coral reefs have already died, and the other half are sending warning signs that they’ll be next. It’s the most beautiful cry for help you could ever see. But if no one is seeing it…How can anyone be talking about it? We created the Glowing Glowing Gone campaign to take this extraordinary warning off the ocean floor, and into culture.
- a2 MilkBrief: Create disruption in the milk-alternatives category Answer: Welcome Back To Milk. A campaign that shows a series of women having a euphoric reunion with milk. In the UK 25% of people have an intolerance to the a1 protein found in regular milk, but have no idea.

- Family Action38 million Brits feel their family is under pressure, and 61% don’t know what to do about it. The charity Family Action wanted to challenge the stigma around family problems, helping people to face their issues (big or small) and get the support they need. We came up with the ‘Family Monsters Project’. The campaign launched with a film directed by Great Gun’s Duncan Christie that illustrates how every family has its monsters. Some monsters are so big they take over the entire house. Others hide
