We produced this shot for Channel 4 and had one week to put the whole thing together, whic involved a cast of 120 people plus all of the accompanying crew, costumes and props needed for such a big job. We commissioned Canadian Photographer Mark Zibert to work with us. In all we had over 200 people on set. Not to mention the cobra, tiger and elephant! Couldn't have pulled it off without our briliant AD, Paul McCann, though the pigeon wrangling was all us!
We commissioned Dean Rogers, a long time Collaborator of Shane Meadows,  to shoot the cast of Shane's brilliant, This is England.    Working with Art Director, Joseph Ernst, we produced the shoot in an abadoned theatre in Sheffield and saw up close what a close knit gang they are.  It shouldn't be legal to have that amount of fun on set.
Hopper. We spotted the Talent of young British Photographer and DOP, Andrew Bainbridge, who asked us to edit his portfolio.  We then collaborated to create this image based on the work of Edward Hopper, putting together the location, styling, casting and post production
China's Stolen Children. We used a mixture of photography, design, library image and old fashioned arts and crafts  to create this image for Jezza Neumann's incredibly moving documentary, China's Stolen Children. Jezza had just returned from China and we had 48 hours from brief to deliver the final image.
The Making of Modern Britain. Working with Pan Macmillan and the Outfit, we came up with the Creative for this book by Andrew Marr.   We wanted to show the Author with a ringside seat, bearing witness to the seminal moments of the 20th Century. Andrew was a pleasure to work with, as were Sir Winston, Franklin and Uncle Joe.
We produced these images for Channel 4's Hollyoakds and commissioned Kansas native Lyndon Wade to be our Photographer.  We shot on 2 different sets to achieve the effect of the two different worlds - before and after having some Hollyoaks rubbed on it!

The Killing. This poster for Channel 4, which we also art directed was our first underwater shoot.  We've done several since, both in the UK and abroad, in water tanks and the open ocean.   Harry and Beatrice - have wet suits, will travel!
We created this story featuring a Super Heroine with the power to shrink taking on powerful Sorceress.  We cast Actress and Aerialist Joss Wyre as our Heroine. For the role of the Sorceress, there was only one person we could possibly turn to.  She's been a Prisoner on Cell Block H, a Neighbour on Ramsey Street, she starred in the first ever video on MTV, has given Mad Max and James Bond a run for their money and now the amazing Virginia Hey is our Villainess.  We teamed up with Photographer Billy Waters to create our homage to Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko.
Throne. We created this image of Professional Wrestling Champion, the 'Amazon', Ayesha Raymond, with Photographer Billy Waters. Shortly after our shoot, Ayesha was announced as the only English Competitor in WWE's Mae Young Classic Event.  We handled every part of the project from creative concept through to casting, styling, art direction & production.        We had a great day with Ayesha, and happily, most of the Models we worked with are now out of hospital.
Desperate Housewives. It was very unusual for us to not work with the Cast of a show at Channel 4.  On one of the rare occasions that this was the case, some cunning body double casting and styling was the solution.  We produced this shoot and commissioned Elen Von Unwerth to be our Photographer.  Art Directed by Adam Shutler.
24 hours in A&E. As well as producing this for channel 4, we were also the creative team, coming up with the concept and art directing the shoot
Race to the Pole. We discovered Polish Photographer, Andrzej Dragan before he'd ever worked in the UK and were delighted when we got this opportunity to commission him to shoot the poster for 'Race to the Pole'. Working with Pan Macmillan and The Outfit,  we art directed and produced this shoot of James Cracknell and Ben Fogle shortly after they returned from their expedition to the South Pole.    The Client liked the image so much, they also used it on the cover of the book itself.
We produced and art directed this week long shoot in Thailand for our Client, TUI.   From casting our 8 Models and travel/shoot logistics, through to direction of the shoot and delivery of hundreds of images, the shoot took us from the beaches of Khao Sok, beautiful islands, night markets, several TUI hotels and the incredible Cheow Lan Lake.     We're at our happiest handling all parts of a production for our Clients. Now we want to go back for a holiday!

Youngs. We were asked by Jamie Oliver to work with the ad agency Mother to produce a poster for their Client, Youngs.  Two days before the shoot, Youngs told us they wanted 2 x ads but didn't have any more budget.  Keeping our shoot team very tight, we managed to deliver both finished ads for the cost of one.

The Mark of Cain. We'd spotted the personal work of Photographer, Gavin Evans and were waiting for the right project to come along that we could unleash him on.   We came up with this concept for the BAFTA winning film, The Mark of Cain.  Lead Actor Gerard Kearns gave an incredibly moving performance in the film, and gave excellent karaoke at our impromptu wrap drinks!
One of the simpler shoots we've produced, this poster for channel 4 was also one of the most award winning.  
Shameless. We teamed up with James Turnham at Channel 4 to produce this shoot with the cast of Shameless. We brought the Manchester based cast down to hang out with us at Bethnal Green working mens club.  It was the first shoot of its kind the channel's in house agency, 4 Creative did and it set the benchmark for all of the work that was to follow as well as that of the in house agencies of every other UK Broadcaster.
Alone in the Dark. We produced this poster for our Client, Hachette books, as well as art directing the shoot.   Our work for the Karen Rose novel, Alone in the Dark, ran all over the UK and was a chance for us to do a project with the incredible Julia Fullerton-Batten.

The Promise. We produced this shoot for Channel 4, and it was an international affair.  To shoot Clare Foy & Christian Cooke we roped in Andzrej Dragan from Poland.  To design and build our Palestinian/Israeli landscape we were lucky enough to work with the insanely talented  David Mark Lee along with the gang at Artem.  We then got Australian, Julian Wolfenstein to shoot the model.  From there, Stuart Frost put the whole thing together.    And it was all done over Christmas week!  Art directed by Joseph Ernst.

Britains Forgotten Children. We had a couple of days between this concept, by Joseph Ernst being approved and our shoot date, so we did what anyone would do and put a call in to a Canada based Photographer who had never worked in the UK before.  To his credit, and our relief, Mark Zibert got on a plane the very next day!
