When the client saw the first cut of this spot, they asked us how we rigged the girl to stand on the ceiling. Looks can be deceiving...It's not the actress who's upside-down, it's the room! We built an upside-down room, and composited in some plastic looking cg elements to mirror the Polly Pocket Stick-And-Play World; You can't keep us down, gravity!

New York Fashion Week just ended. And we got to produce a video for one of our favorite designers, Lauren Moffatt. Director Monique Ah-Sue created a piece that showcases her effortlessly chic Fall 2012 collection and captures the clothing’s overall effervescence of an innocent schoolgirl laden with traces of mischief.

Our good friends at SPIN asked us to make a video, showcasing its hot off the press magazine rebrand. Between a day of shooting in the office with one camera, one magazine, and a few sets of hands, we think the final outcome looks pretty cool.

The international sensation, Tiësto is a household name in the world of electronic music and definitely in the running for today’s biggest DJ. The Dutch legend hardly performs at a show that isn't sold out. Believe Entertainment asked us to go behind the scenes of his most recent worldwide tour and make a branded 10-episode web series, "In The Booth," for HP and Intel. After sorting through months of raw footage, C&E senior editor Barney Murray crafted a story that spotlights the globetrotting lifestyle of a rising music talent and his close-knit crew. We also designed all of the show packaging in a network-ready manner. You can find the series on YouTube.

Director Moh Azima describes his latest music video for Phenomenal Handclap Band's The Right One as "retro futurism with an Egyptian vibe." We helped Moh get the shoot done, and C&E Art Director Justin Acree jumped right into the VFX. Using every design tool at our disposal, we created an enchanted, prehistoric world that delivers visually arresting, cinematic VFX on a shoestring budget.
