Selected Commercial Work

Hargreaves Lansdown ‘Inactive Banks’

Director: Benjamin Green

Agency: Stitchy · Production: Bullion · 2026

A 30″ comedy set inside an ‘inactive bank’, where bored staff stall for time and a banker presents a poor savings rate as a loyalty reward — for HL’s Active Savings. Post: Helm. Sound: Sine Audio.

Specsavers ‘Resting Squint Face’

Director: Craig Ainsley

Agency: Golin London · Production: Arts & Sciences · 2025

A spoof public-service film that reframes presbyopia as ‘Resting Squint Face’ and urges friends to stage a Squintervention — including one man who hires someone to hold his books at arm’s length.

Audible ‘Breakdown’

Director: Thomas Ormonde

Agency: Fold7 · Production: MindsEye · 2023

A roadside breakdown that keeps getting worse — keys in a lake, a door torn off by a truck, a lightning strike — while she laughs along to an Audible comedy. Shot on a closed racetrack on the longest day of the year; the car explosion nearly took out the rain machine.

Coors ‘Fresh Ride’

Director: Diarmid Harrison-Murray

Agency: Havas London · Production: Untold Studios · 2023

The cast rode real horses on widened saddles across the Austrian mountains — Slovenia had lost its snow — and Untold replaced the horses with CG bears in post. The 2,260m party scene was reached by a four-person gondola that allowed about three hours of shooting a day.

C4 ‘Rise & Fall’

Director: Matthew Walker

Agency: 4creative · Production: MindsEye · 2023

A slapstick fight through a listed South London manor house, shot over two days with a full rehearsal day; the ceiling couldn’t be rigged, so it was lit from above and a mini set was built for the stuntman’s crash through it. Clio Gold and Promax UK Silver.

A Barclaycard Business comedy for BBH, cut by Ben Campbell at The Quarry.
