Illumina – Enlightened Living
It was a pre-light and camera-test at a dark bar in Brisbane’s The Barracks. And for the first time in a long time, I wasn’t in control, which always scares me. I had one chance to frame up and prove myself. “This job will all be about reflected light,” the Creative Director, Daniel Sumich, explained, …
Zombie Open Home
Harcourts M1 wanted a teaser to promote the sale of a castle called Rumble. One of the few things we hadn’t done was spill some blood and guts and so we wrote Zombie Open Home. The staff and agents did their own make-up and wardrobe while we whipped up some gore. Filmed in under two …

Desiderata – Experimental Film-making For Real Estate
Desiderata. Latin: “desired things” – a 1927 prose poem by American writer Max Ehrmann (1872-1945) OK. It may be a little deep. But at platinumHD Propvid, we’re always striving to make more of a film about a property than just a video on it. I wanted to go for a colder look. We also brought …

2011 – A Year in Review
2011 – a Year in Review.

Updated December 29, 2011: Views have now exceeded 100,000. Without any mainstream press. There are three versions of this film launched. Two on YouTube and one on VIMEO.

Lakelands by NEO
For those who don’t know, Neo‘s Ian Adams was a SWAT cop back in the UK. The best of the best. He has an unashamed, unabashed comedic quality about him, not dissimilar to the great Benny Hill. He can have fun with being sexist, taking it right up to the line with through self-deprecating sense …
