From the vault: surrealism, 70s horror (& Cake)

Repeater is a surreal, Giallo-inspired music video we produced ( shot and directed by ) for —made in close collaboration with , the band’s lead singer and incredible designer. A man of many hats.

Heavily influenced by 1970s horror cinema, especially the vivid worlds of Dario Argento, the piece leans into mood, colour, and disorientation to mirror the track’s hypnotic pull.
A love letter to the strange and the stylised.

Real stories. Imagined world. Lasting impact. ✨

We partnered with Doncaster Parents' Voice and Barnsley Primary Voice Group to create Glowstone Academy—an animated resource helping children better understand their neurodivergent peers, through stories rooted in real experiences from across South Yorkshire.

Glowstone Academy was a true passion project for me () inspired by my own incredible neurodivergent child (he also provides a voice for one of the characters).

Huge thanks to for her magical illustrations – she perfectly captured our vision for a school where every difference is celebrated. We chose to collaborate with Lisa because of her incredible ability to bring to life the mythical and fantastical and she absolutely nailed it.
