Tom & Matt met in 2006 studying Graphic Design & Communication at Kingston University. After graduating they were both awarded with D&AD Pencils and chosen as Creative Review’s ‘Ones to Watch’ for their first creative/directing collaboration. Watch Here
Hired as a creative team by Mother’s Ben Mooge at his startup agency Work Club, they quickly learnt how to apply their visual ideas to brands. Soon after they were hired by ECD’s Chris Bovill and John Allison to work at Fallon.
After 12 years of working alongside agencies, production companies and brands, they now work as a hybrid creative team and directing duo, freelancing directly with brands and at advertising agencies all over the world.
As creatives, they’re obsessed with finding original insights and developing innovative & unique visual ideas - an approach which they carry into their film making, focusing on high-concept executions, crafted with a design led aesthetic and a meticulous eye for detail.
Their films have received various accolades including 7 Vimeo Staff picks, a D&AD pencil, SXSW Premiere, UKMVA Nominations, Cannes Lions, Clios, Creative Floor awards and Japan Media Arts Festival Gold.
We freelance as a creative / creative directing team at advertising agencies.
When we're not freelancing, we direct TV commercials and branded content for agencies.
We also work on a project by project basis directly with brands - overseeing everything from writing scripts through to production and delivery.
