Stuart Douglas’s latest for mobile phone giant Xiaomi, publicising the impressive AI assisted camera capabilities of the Mi 6X, features Chinese superstar , actor & rapper Kris Wu.
Featuring some truly spectacular vistas of Los Angeles and some philosophical musings on a subject of long close to Stuart’s heart: the nature of photography.
Where would we be without that friend, the one that is there when you need them, wherever and whenever?
Jesper’s latest film for Cheerios follows Joan and Carol, two neighbours who’s friendship flourishes over several decades of fun and adversity – through crises including leaky roofs, house fires, a bat infestation (surely a homage to Catch him Derry), and other neighbours dodgy dance moves.
The glue that binds this relationship is bowl after bowl of sweetened cereal hoops – which as part of a healthy diet can afford one sufficient longevity for these kinds friendships to mature, like fine wine.
Somehow, in Jesper’s masterful hands, this schtick seems quite credible and entertaining.
The famous and somewhat old-fashioned saying “children should be seen but not heard” takes on a new life in Jepser’s latest film for burger giant McDonalds.
In this supposedly child-centric world the same old prejudices still exist – if it’s small and noisy it should not be allowed in certain places, namely, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, trains, aeroplanes, churches, cinemas, museums, galleries and just about anywhere else where adults dominate.
If kitchens could talk – I’d be in jail. However, kitchens do see it all – they are central to any family home and all of life is often played out there. In Liz Murphy’s latest film for Magnet we see a family grow and develop. From the baby daughters first day home after being born, through to a moody teen and beyond to another new arrival to the family. The unsung hero, the kitchen, sees it all and remembers.
All shot in Liz’s trademark realism, with the warmth and relatability in her cast that she musters so brilliantly, we actually cast disbelief aside as a viewer and relate to the kitchen as a real entity, recalling fond memories of our own.
Stuart Douglas’s latest film, for Chinese premium milk brand Telunsu, features Chinese AList actors Chen Daoming and Jin Dong on a symbolic journey through the wilderness, in search of a better version of the themselves: a metaphor for the brands continual striving to be better. This includes using only milk from cows grazed on exclusive pastureland in New Zealand & Mongolia.
This one of several projects completed in the last year for China, where the rapidly growing confidence, ambition and subtlety of the creative output continues to impress us. Even by Stuart’s high standards, the landscapes (NZ South Island) & the photography are epic.
We live in a beautiful country. Wet, but beautiful. If you know where to look there are a million hidden gems – unique, special places to get away from it all.
Stuart’s new film for cottages.com take us on an inspirational road trip some of these gems – castles, lakeside villas, a gypsy caravan, a forest hideaway an even old RAF control tower – all beautifully shot in Stuart’s trademark photographic style.
