    HP – Global Viral Fun

    Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

    TelecomTV commissioned Zebra Crossing to create three ads for their client HP (Hewlett Packard, not the brown sauce). The brief was to create a unique set of global ads that put HP at the cutting edge of communications.

    “Woodstock”, “Rocket Man” and “Lost Tribe” were written, directed and produced by the zebra team of Nic Franklin, Mark Dymond and Luke Hammersley.

    A massive thanks goes out to all involved:

    Joel Anderson was our lens master, and as always brought magic to the photography; Amanda Linke simply did wonders in make-up. Not to mention Nathan Bayliss & Michael Ho (Soho Editors) for their After Effects wizardry, Ben Rogers (Glassworks) and Andrew Daniel (Molinare) for their delicate touch on the color grading balls, Marcus and the team at The Mews and a terrific sound mix by Nick Murphy at The Sound Company.

    The ads were shot on location across three continents; in Charlottesville (Virginia, USA), London, Devon and Cape Town (South Africa).

    ‘Twas good times and everyone seems to have their favourite ad, which is yours?

    Video and Audio work for Amnesty International

    Thursday, August 13th, 2009

    We were recently pretty damn excited to be commissioned by Amnesty International to produce a set of audio and video for their annual week-long International Council Meeting in Antalya, Turkey.

    The work comprised a 3-minute and a 30-second video, created mainly from AI’s own library footage, which was played at the opening of the meeting. We also produced a 3-minute audio loop for playing during recess and after closing each evening.

    With the video and motion graphics edited in-house at Zebra, Sound Design was completed by Dan Darriba & Eddie Stevens at RMS and Dom Boucher at The Sound Company.

    ‘Running Late’ Screening at BAFTA

    Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

    Last night saw the screening of Leo Poloniecki’s short film ‘Running Late’ at BAFTA. The film went down a storm with the 200+ friends, family and industry movers and shakers, as did the cold beers on what was reportedly the hottest day of the year.

    Co-directed by Leo and Joel Anderson, Zebra Crossing handled all post-production on the film, from the offline edit to the telecine grade at TKone. Big thanks to John Penn at Dubbs and Alf Penn at TKone for all their help.

    STEEL – The Digital Communications Agency

    Sunday, July 20th, 2008

    Zebra Crossing were commissioned by STEEL to produce a business-to-business marketing showreel of their services.
    Messages were carefully constructed and delivered by key staff on Stage 5 at Ealing Studios while additional footage was captured over two days in STEEL’s Wandsworth studio and around the capital.
    Directed by Nic Franklin and produced by Luke Hammersley, the film was shot on HDCAM by Joel Anderson and Marc Cayford.
    An original score was composed by Luke Hammersley, and to give the track a contemporary and urban feel we decided to record the track with the addition of The Standards.

    Phones 4u Kylie Minogue Tour Sponsorship

    Thursday, January 5th, 2006

    As part of their sponsorship of the much anticipated Kylie Minogue ‘Showgirl’ Tour Zebra Crossing have helped Phones 4u produce a set of commercials to mark the event, and deliver a round of Press Ads to print.

    Combining the sea shanty theme of the current campaign we have been into the recording studio with Donald Ross, one of the world’s finest accordion players, who expertly delivered renditions of ‘I should be so lucky’ and ‘I can’t get you out of my head’. It remains to be seen whether we will get the rights to use these tracks, but we have had a whole lot of fun putting the ads together! Well done Don.
