Making a spaghetti explosion….


Fun job for VML- Colgate Palmolive. The brief was to create a repeatable spaghetti explosion inside a microwave- obviously a bit of a clean up involved with the re set! Working with William Meppen, Jerry Joy, Belinda Blooman, and Tony Luu…
The second spot was to create a ‘milkquake’ with a blender. Making a rig to eject the contents of a blender on cue, more messy business!

Ice Ice Baby

Interesting job for McCafe stills shoot for billboards and in store. Featuring their coffee range, including iced espresso and iced latte.We have a big range of hand crafted acrylic, and silicon ice, but nothing matched the specific style they use, so I decided to custom make 100 pieces of the acrylic, and the same in the ( floating ) clear silicon….3 and a hald days later it was all done. The client loved the attention to detail, the food stylist loved them and the photographer was stoked….

Proffessor Alf explains fluid dynamics and the Bernoulli principle, in relation to wig removal.

The brief was a ‘shock wave’ effect to blow the hair of the judges on the Voice, so to create an the perfect instant waft, we devised an effect with a large Venturi blower, run from a bottle of CO2. This provided a high pressure burst ( 800psi), with no noisy compressor- ideal for studio use….

The Puppets do float on by the Floaters. My one man band having some fun in the workshop, with a few of the furry friends. Bit tricky doing it all myself, but I did have a giggle along the way…

Extraction 2 Influencer Experience

https://vimeo.com/837298514?share=copy

 

Recently I designed a hybrid Shoot/event/experience for Netflix, as part of the launch of the movie ‘Extraction 2 starring Chris Hemsworth. A couple of months ago I did the set for interviews with Chris to promote the film- they liked it so much they got me back in to re create a ‘oner’ experience for 70 influencers. The job involved leading guests through a cabin, a snow scene, a tunnel, an underground prison,into a prison yard fight scene with 8 stunt men, then up a ramp to a waiting helicopter. There was snow, smoke, wind, haze and steam effects throughout the set up. I managed to take a time lapse of the set, from install, to bump out… hectic but a lot of fun.
