    "Everyone loves coffee, right? For the last quarter of Rijo 42’s content plan we went for very indulgent approach, with plenty of naughty toppings full of cream and whip with a tipple of alcohol!

    Rijo42 wanted to give something back to its loyal followers and customers, so we created a 'How to' drinks series of short films for reels and general social media.

    We also created a series of stills that feature seasonal hero drinks created just for Rijo42. These will also feature on recipe cards that will go out with every new coffee machine!"

    "It’s been a busy month, I’ve shot a wide range of work from liquids to stop animation.

    I was asked to shoot six unique front covers for Men's Health Synchronised Watch Magazine. In collaboration with Andreas Listrand, I’ve created a short animation of the Patek Phillipe. This was perfect for me as it involved placing a watch inside a liquid paint splash.

    Paint was a running theme as I was also asked to create a Jackson Pollock-style backdrop for Venue and Events gift shoot.

    I also had time to create the final instalment of my fruit burst series.

    Stop animation was fun to do and rewarding. These shorts clips were for Nando’s to capture the ethos of the company."
