Here's an oldie but goodie collaboration with ECD Harry Scotting at the London, UK agency ICLP. Shot in New York. It's for CapitalOne's chip card rollout in the USA.
We shot this at a pretty famous Japanese-themed technology store in NYC. There's a whole lot of invisible vfx in this spot, because during filming there was a big emergency across the street. Imagine those white walls strobing red and blue from the fire department and police! We persevered, and the client and agency were happy with the work. Hooray!
We recently undertook a commercial film project with them for a major US-based financial institution. Being a London-based agency we had limited contacts in the US, and took the decision to work direct with a US-based production team, rather than work via a UK studio - knowing this would be more beneficial to our budget. Having gone through a cost & feasibility process with potential suppliers we finally selected Patrick's team - not only due to his costs, but also his creds, ‘can do’ attitude & wealth of experience.
After extensive & well managed pre-production we arrived on set in midtown Manhattan for the shoot comforted by the sight of a full & experienced production crew.The shoot itself was professionally managed, executed & completed – all with Patrick himself at the helm. Post production - including sound, motion graphics & music - was managed quickly & efficiently (albeit tricky due to multiple client stakeholders).
For us, Patrick was the perfect partner for our project – he is truly passionate about film, and fully understands all the processes within. He is also trustworthy & reliable – which was hugely important to us being overseas and working with significant clients. We are looking forward to future US-based productions, so we get the opportunity to work with Patrick and his team again.
