We had just started working on this project when COVID 19 hit, punching a few holes in the production. We’re still slated to return to shoot the penthouses. This is a generic ‘interim’ film based on interviews with architect Casey Vallance. When shooting new developments, the hard part is coming up with an idea for …

The Nest. Breaking On Through.
This is the breakthrough video we’d been collaborating on and agonizing over for more than a decade. That’s how far Heath Williams and I go back; all the way back to H-House. And I suppose it takes that long for everything to gell. Trust. Knowledge. Experience. And trust. Heath is the ‘Architect’s Agent’. As a …
Mishy Canning
Something unusual in the world of agent profiles. An agent who didn’t want to be on camera. All Mishy Canning wanted to do was re-create an old story, and share it. So that’s what we did. Model Allira Cohrs played Mishy, in her first dramatic outing, and actor Vince Gorce played the home-owner, who was …

This Gold Coast-based charity feeds those ‘living hard’ out of a kitchen in Miami. We’re proud that the first film we made helped raise over $60,000 which actually built that facility. The challenge in making a film like this is in the sensitivity and empathy you need around the interviews. Living hard is one of …
Polo By The Sea for McLaren.
A social production for McLaren Gold Coast. We filmed the horses on a full-frame 100-400m Canon zoom lens, strapped to speed booster on a Panasonic GH5, rolling at 60 frames-per-second. The smaller microsensor gave us plenty more zoom. One of the problems I’ve always have in shooting outdoor events is the dirt and dust, and …
Shane Colquhoun – Working The Production Triangle
This is on of my favourite shots of a working Principal, at the top of his game, filmed in 8K on the RED Epic W, on a Canon 35mm cinema prime lens. The interview was just as good, as Shane looked back on his career. We both arrived on the Gold Coast around the same …

The North Penthouse of Chevron
Inspired by Versace, the North Penthouse of Chevron drips with Gold. Listed by Kollosche Prestige Agents, the Owners requested celebrity presenter Sophie Falkiner ‘model’ the property, having seen her work on a property in Brisbane for Queensland – Sotheby’s International Realty. The idea: Sophie coming home from an international modelling job in a limo and preparing …
The Paddock To Plate Series For Simon George & Sons.
For Bambrick Media‘s ‘From Paddock To Plate’ social media concept for Simon George & Sons, dawn starts were part and parcel of the production. That means up at 2.00am. By the time the first colour was brushing the sky, Brisbane’s fruit markets were approaching peak hour. Tough men with hard hands. Which is what we …

Set in Airlie Beach, the CEO was produced for the re-launch of the Mirage Whitsundays in collaboration with Murray Jones from Brisbane ad agency The Big Ideas Group.

No Excuses!
No Excuses. It is stitched onto the back of our CREW caps. Unlike lawyers who can argue away the meaning of what “is’ sexual relations, us film-makers come from a world where if it looks like #hit and sounds like #hit, well, it is #hit. Black and white. No arguments. No discussions. No justification. You …
