In May that same year, right in the middle of lockdown and gig cancellations, we hosted a broadcast quality live stream concert on Mixer (Microsofts now defunct streaming platform) with rising UK star Jade Bird and band to thousands of fans.In 2021 we created a 5 episode WFH sci-fi mystery web-series to promote the productivity features of Surface Duo, Microsoft's new flagship dual-screen device. We wanted to highlight the impossible situation parents were put in during lockdown, and the many many productivity challenges they were and still are facing. The Surface Duo played a huge part, enabling our hero to not only deal with work and home life, but on top of it all also solving an inter-dimensional mystery.Clients: ASICS, Microsoft, WW, Ikea.

I joined a couple years after the Sapient's acquisition of the Nitro group, and the transition from pure digital consultancy to also offering creative was in full swing. For me as a creative focusing on tech and innovation, it was an exciting time to join as we got to work on NPD, brand experience, and UX as well as more traditional advertising and social content.Clients: McLaren, Ladbrokes, Marks & Spencer, Sky, Intel, Akzo Nobel.

I was brought in to bolster digital creative for VW and Grabarz. Favorite project from this era was creating a Facebook app (remember those?!) which was a 'digital driving license' meant to lower the barrier for 18-25 year-olds to take their real license and of course eventually choose VW as their first car.Client: Volkswagen
