Woo (ITV)

Higher Frequencies

Download

Direction and animation for a four-part series called Higher Frequencies for ITV's new channel Woo. The episodes are four sound healing sessions; remixing songs from Vegyn, Nina Kraviz, Ashnikko and beabadoobee into a meditation session. Each episode was guided by scientific research into how specific visual movements induce certain states of mind, driving the animation concepts behind each film.

POSTMATES

This Is Your Brain On Food

Mixed-technique identity series for US based food delivery app, Creative Direction by Harry Butt at Nexus Design Studio

Nexus Design Studio created nine compelling films, illustrating the unique, visceral sensations evoked by that first delectable bite of food. Each highlighting dishes available through the Postmates app, the campaign showcases the best-of-class merchants, from the fiery thrill of Nashville Hot Chicken to the bouncy world of Boba tea and the serene joy of sushi.

Sneakernet

I created and directed a campaign for fashion retailer Zalando, designing and building a 3D world as well as directing a photo and video shoot. The product and models from the shoot were placed into the 'Sneakernet' environment, which adapted to the hero product in each scene. Working as an animated and stills campaign it ran across the Zalando homepage for four weeks.

The work has gone up in a special exhibition in the NikeTown store throughout late 2018.
