PICTURE BOOK MUSIC VIDEO

BRAND NEW Picture Book music video featuring Greta Svabo Bech. The video was filmed at BinaryCell Studios, Liverpool in January 2012. The song titled SUNSHINE inspired the content for the shoot; dripping vivid paint from the ceiling to create an over saturated world.


This project was a great collaborative process, involving local costume makers called 'THE COSTUMOLOGISTS', International professional makeup artists from 'ILLAMASQUA' , lighting guru "Venya Krutikov - THE KAZIMIER" and my superb assistant Rachel!

BINARYCELL PROMO FILM

This promo was filmed and produced at BINARYCELL STUDIOS in December 2011. It was created to showcase the studios ability in binaural technology. The film illustrates this by using the surround, 3D audio.

I wanted to creat an industrial, cold and edgy environment to shoot the film in. Local actors and musicans were used to create this sinister 'dream' band.



Nico Xander - Drums
Lauren Spink - Vox
Yan Shi - Bass
Jake Foord - Guitar & Tech

B. DOLAN LIVE MOVIE!!!

WHERE DO I START?! ........
B. DOLAN from "STRANGE FAMOUS RECORDS" is one of my all time favourite rappers so I went to watch him perform at the MASQUE in Liverpool. He played along with SCROOBIUS PIP and the show was incredible. After watching him I approached Dolan and asked if I could film them, I left my number with Pip scribbled on a scruffy piece of box card. The following day I received a call asking to film the next show. Since then I have been in liason with Dolan and I am working on his "WHO KILLED RUSSELL JONES" video.

Mad respect to this giant.

FREYA JONAS ALBUM COVER

Freya's debut album MY BONES was created from taking a series of photographs and then putting them through a heavy process of digital manipulation combining earthy textures and found archived imagery of bones. This produced an elegant and playful cover despite the use of the erie content.

Freya produced a short run of these jewell cases to raise money for charity.

6IX TOYS WEBSITE

Again more work with the 6IX TOYS crew! This time we teamed together to produced a web site that needed to be eye catching and fun! Jake showed me various crazy sites and his fasination with hypnotic spirals and pattern works. Fred, the producer started to create the website out of paper!!!! so to retain the paper based site I scanned in the delicatley cut out pieces to start creating the digital version.

This project was a helped by my boy SEIJI NAKANO who did the programming so that the band can easily update the site whilst on the road from any smartphone!!

I also designed the following covers:
