An experiment in exploring visual transitions and equivalents repurposing material exclusively from the Getty Images sound and video archive. It takes a beginning from a press interview with the 20th century collage pioneer, Grand Master Flash where he talks about his early innovations and fascination with using existing material to create something new through careful manipulations.
This is the winning entry for the UK for the Mishmash Competition which Getty Images ran between the 18th September and 23rd October.

Kneaded, knocked about and compressed, truncated and decapitated, amputated, crippled, and colourized; this short film lampoons the anarchic use of archive pictures.
The format is an important topic for us because it deals with the problem of the respect of the images in these days.

Sibos is an annual global event organised by SWIFT that brings together the banking industry. The brief was to produce an opening film that gave an overview of the content covered at the event. The challenge was to present the issues to a highly educated audience in an intelligent and engaging way. Our solution was to create a narrative content flow from recent footage of world leaders, chief economists and journalists. The film was set in a graphical world of “media” which used an animated treatment to bring the footage together and give the film a visual consistency and purpose.
The film is about the state of the global banking industry today so our challenge was to produce a film that would present existing footage in a way that was visually exciting, compelling and pertinent to the audience without losing sight of the underlying message. The content was designed to stimulate future debate so the issues needed to be presented dramatically and with gravitas. This film is a case study demonstration of how the archive and animated world can come together in a way that gives a new and fresh perspective on corporate content.
