TVC | Corporate Video Production Perth, Australia
A COMPLETE FILM AND TVC DIRECTOR
More than 32 years of experience as a film director and videographer who owned 2 commercial production companies in Perth, Australia and in Indonesia is more or less like having a whole video production agency inside one person’s head. To my clients this means: the best video production services at really competitive rates.
FULL SERVICE VIDEO PRODUCTION
Whether your are an advertising / production company professional, a business owner or marketing professional, we can work together in some or all stages of video production to deliver an exceptional end product. My know-how is applied to TV commercials, online advertising, corporate videos and more.
My recent work
UON corporate
Animation formed an integral part of these films for client Uon, deftly created by Nick Kempt at Zac Creative.
Perron Institute B
This is the other ad for Perron Institute. Originally we were only making 1 x 30 second but such was the performance of every child we created a second ad and client was happy to alternate. All 12 kids got their moment in...
Perron Institute A
This is one of two ads we shot for client Perron Institute, via agency Longreach. A considerable casting effort drew out twelve little kids, each with quirky idiosyncrasies that came to life on shoot day. Filmed on the Arri...
Simonds ‘Style Angels’
A wonderful one day shoot in Melbourne on the Arri Alexa Mini. First time working with DoP Ed Goldner. It won't be the last. He was fantastic, as were the rest of the crew. Thanks to my Producer Troy Zafer, Writer Andrew Tinning and...
Simonds Homes ’70 Years of Firsts’
This is a gem. Two day shoot in Melbourne – the town of four seasons in one day. Lots of talent to cast, locations to scramble over – far apart from one another, sunrises to capture – far apart from one another. Client happy. The main thing.
Simonds 99k
A one day shoot with two footy legends.
ROTTNEST Bus Tour
This was a shoot that started at 7am, shooting the bus in situ, both from ground and from the drone…without any talent. Then an hour on the bus with selected talent. It’s all about working smart and cost effectively. This video plays onboard the Rottnest Express Ferry en route to and from this beautiful island. […]
Impressions The Home Builder “Kitchen”
Another great film for Impressions. Campaign shot in one day and on time: happy kids, happy crew, happy client.
Impressions The Home Builder “Ensuite”
Beautiful TVC shot in one day as a campaign with 2 films using one location.
