The potential of photography is still unmatched. Just like video, one well-framed shot can tell so many stories. We should know, as we have our roots in portrait and studio photography.

We made this series of photos for Pollyanna Moss, that is part of her graduation project. A very early morning coffee, cold feet (literally!), infinite landscapes and lots and lots of sheep.

Photography by Wouter Kooken.

Footage Friday!

During the lockdown in spring 2020 Eindhoven City asked us to send a message to the people of Eindhoven: “Stay safe, be creative and go forward”.
A message that is still important today!

Thank you Merel Morre for the beautiful words and Steye van Dam for your characteristic voice.

Footage Friday!

We haven't finished talking about Eindhoven, not by a long shot! Today we once again pick a (not so very old) video. One we made for NBTC and Eindhoven365.

What we learned while making this video: dozens of different locations and a very tight one-day-schedule only go well with the right cameraman. Amen.

Meet Teun,
Teun has a Clark Gable style 'stash.
Teun does not only like plain lager, he also likes senseo coffee.
Teun starts visualizing an edit before you even know you want one.
And did we mention he lives in perpetual movember with his Clark Gable style 'stash?

A long-delayed project - because of COVID-19 - finally came to a beautiful end: a short movie about Dutch designer Kiki van Eijk's work in general that is part of the exhibition ‘Imaginings/Gedachtespinsels’ at the TextielMuseum in Tilburg.

It was a real pleasure to work with both Kiki van Eijk and the TextielMuseum and to be able to finally fulfill such a nice project.

To see the full movie, visit the exhibition that runs until September 2021. Be sure to check it out!

Almost weekend. That means…Footage Friday! Today we are in an epic mood. So we selected a video with a lot of beers. Check it out! 🍺🍻

The Eindhoven beer brewers are a special species. They are the people behind Van Moll, the Stadsbrouwerij, the Bierbrigadier and of course the Bier & Big Festival. They brew their own beers and invite everyone to come and taste them. In 365 seconds we take you into the local culture of specialty beers.

Special thanks to: Dennis Kort (Oldskool Brewery), Swen Boots en Casper Pennings (De Bierbrigadier), Erwin van Moll en Jaap Hermans (Van Moll), Rob Bours (Stadsbrouwerij)

Summer in Eindhoven has reached its peak. And so has our fitbit! We ran - 24h long 😉 - with some locals all over Eindhoven. Looking for their favorite hotspots, resulting in four videos that we filmed at a super fast pace.
Here we let one loose for you!

🙏Thanks to everyone who participated!

Newly business partners Marc Dubach and Barbara Vugs know Eindhoven like the back of their hand. It's not for nothing that they like to work together. Barbar...
