‘Private Beach Getaway’ VRBO TV commercial
Another VRBO spot from the same campaign featuring lots of beauty work and clean up throughout. The opening shot needed a building site removed, lights turned on in windows, the garden landscaped and the sky replaced, among other things. Working with ungraded camera raw source files, I worked with the colourist closely to turn this around and get the campaign to air. A great team, always a pleasure to be brought in onsite as a freelance flame artist.

‘Final Assembly’ Screen One
As a flame artist I was asked to complete the beauty work and retouching on these films within the Ferrari World Theme Park, Abu Dhabi. This was one screen of six screens that you passed by on one element of the ride experience. Each screen told the story of the last moments on the production line, the final assembly.

‘MTV’
I loved this series of ‘Brand Showcase’ films for MTV UK showcasing a number of contemporary artists. It touched on many disciplines within the Flame Premium. Paul and I designed the whole series and it was all composited in Flame. Initially I spent some time in Lustre grading the two ‘looks’. Additional scenery and interest was then composited in the black and white scenes. Extensive beauty work across all the talent followed. Large amounts of rotoscoping and keying was needed to extract talent and place them in the desired sets, complete with carefully selected and designed back plates drawing on inspiration and lyrics from the artists.

This is a beautiful spot for GHD hair products. I completed the film in Smoke. There was detailed and time consuming beauty work undertaken on all the models, particularly their hair, which had to look perfect.

‘Final Assembly’
This was a series of six films projected on massive tall portrait shaped screens that the viewer travelled slowly through. Each film, beautifully graded, told a short story of each of the teams that complete a final inspection of the cars at the end of the production stage. On Flame I managed the beauty work, composition and delivery of the films for the bespoke space.
