#HONORtheChallenger Campaign Wins Gold at The Drum Awards APAC
Really happy to share that our campaign film #HONORtheChallenger, which I directed and produced under Square Elephant Productions and BBC StoryWorks, picked up Gold at The Drum Awards APAC.

Movie: Poor Things
Poor Things is like a quirky, surrealist painting you just can’t stop staring at, its weird, wonderful, and strangely hypnotic. From the very first frame, I found myself weirdly captivated.

There’s perfection in every
