Discovering a hidden book collection – Layton’s Library
We’ve produced a short taster film and rebuilt the thomaslayton.org.uk website to introduce people to the treasures collected by Thomas Layton, a Brentford Victorian collector of archeology, ethnography, books & prints. Layton left his collection for the enjoyment and education of the people of Brentford & Hounslow, and this film highlights parts of the book collection and members of the Trust inform us about the particulars which make the collection so special. Short depth of field lenses and macro photography helps communicate the textures of the page whilst additional motion graphics are sparingly used to allude to the scale of

Spy Merchants – An Al Jazeera Investigation
We helped the Washington based Al Jazeera Investigations team uncover the murky world of selling surveillance equipment, often to anyone willing to pay, regardless of the government, end user or final usage. Titles, subtitles, as well as all the visual effects and explainer graphic sequences are spread over 47 mins which as not an easy feat considering that there’s barely a minute free of overlays and VFX. To see the whole programme which was beautifully shot and directed by Colin MacIntyre and brilliantly edited by Nicholas Dove, click on this link.

Unreported World – Titles & Branding
Channel 4’s Hugo Ward commissioned us to rebrand the channel’s flagship documentary strand ‘Unreported World’. We thought we would create a series of silhouetted figures inhabiting a diverse landscape which would attempt to suggest that the programmes were concentrating on the normally faceless figures which the news often bypasses or certainly has less time for. See below.

Spires – Streetlink
This is one of our firm favourites, being that we had a recorded interview with a street-worker and not much more to work with, as the subject needed her anonymity. We did have, however, the expert guidance and trust of Minamon Films. Great work from Lucie Julliat.

Will Britain ever have a Black PM?
This documentary was part of the Black & British season. We worked with the director Steve Grandison to illustrate the near impossibility of a black British infant growing up and becoming our Prime Minister via some quite shocking statistics blocking any advancement. There were eight stand alone animated films produced covering everything from poverty, education, employment and the world of politics.

Panorama – BHS: How did it happen?
The way in which millions of pounds were made out of BHS has been branded the ‘unacceptable face of capitalism’. 11,000 people lost their jobs as a black hole opened up in the pension fund. For this expose on the business antics of ‘Sir Philip’ we created a stylised High St. populated by Sir Philip and Lady Green and his business partners. The only character missing was the luxury Yacht but that may happen if we have to revisit the Greens again.
