DOCUMENTARY FILM & PHOTOGRAPHY - 'BUILD YOURSELF'
'BUILD YOURSELF' : Open Source Ecology - Factory E Farm, Missouri, USA. Aug 2012.
I recently spent three weeks in the USA documenting an organization called Open Source Ecology for a film competition set up by Sundance Festival, called Focus Forward. The brief was to create a 3 minute documentary based on a person, idea, place or concept that is changing the world for the future.
OSE was set up by Marcin Jakubowski in Missouri, USA. His ideas, philosophy and hands on building of of the Global Village Construction Set (50 most crucial machines for building a new modern civilization, free of privatized industrial constraints and capitalistic ideals) is aiming to change the way we live, work and communicate in our future world. He has already built and shared the designs for his own life tractor, CEB earth brick press, dimensional saw mill, power cube and trencher. sharing all designs and instructions online for free for anybody anywhere in the world to share and adopt. He was invited by TED talks to speak at their conference on how OSE hope to change not only the face of industry but also the way people live, work and socialize within their own communities.
Building sustainable open source communities, free to share knowledge, ideas, practice, and visions of a future free of the constraints of 'economic scarcity'.
Above is the film we made, which is currently in the semi final stages of the film competition. Please check it out, share and vote for the film on Vimeo.
Along the way I also managed to capture some photography stills which I have included below. many thanks for letting me be apart of this inspiring project.

SHORT FILM - 'RIPPLE'
'Ripple' is a short film that draws from the abstract forms and mechanical contortions of the human body, exploring and exploding the intricate and microscopic dynamics behind every day movements and human cycles. The sound track, composed from commissioned field recordings from the shoreline of the wild shingle plains of Dungeness in Kent, provides a natural echo to these self-same notions of cyclic movement tension as the Atlantic Ocean exercises its vast body in a never ending process of transferal and regeneration.
All video and sound are original recordings and have not been modified.
Created for Smoke & Mirrors 48 Hour Film Competition 2010.

VIRAL VIDEO Oxfam - DIY Campaign Promo and Documentary
Oxfam DIY Fashion Campaign Video and Documentary created by Drew Cox
I was approached by the Creative Agency, Think Espionage to come up with a set of visuals for Oxfam's latest campaign. I suggested the idea of a combination of a Viral Fashion Promo, documentary video and photography to record the process of the Oxfam DIY Campaign as it ran for the course of the entire 2009 summer season.
Festivals, Fashion shows, Music, Behind the Scenes, Store Re-designs, Shop Openings, and all led by the always iconic designer Mrs Jones. I also photographed the campaign; photoshoots, workshops, all festivals, behind the scenes and all portariture of Mrs Jones. for a feature by ID Magazine. Photos below.
The 1st promo video was created using a combination of rotoscoping, hand made models, stop frame animation and motion graphics, by the collaborative team of Drew Cox and Jonny Harris to coincide with the launch of the Oxfam DIY Campaign and the opening of the first OXFAM DIY Store in Camden, London. The video was also showcased on the large festival screens throughout the summer festival season, Glastonbury, Leeds, Reading and Bestival, as part of Oxfams campaign to raise awareness of the project.
Music credits go to James Powell and Pete Devlin.

COMMERCIAL Shakespear's Globe presents The God of Soho
Big God’s mind is crumbling, Mrs God has lost her looks and they can’t stop arguing. Their daughter, the Goddess of Love has been rejected and banished to earth. Meanwhile - in Essex - glamorous reality TV star Natty has had some fetish items stolen that threaten to expose her relationship with rock star Baz to the media.
Award-winning writer Chris Hannan’s moving, hectic and hilarious new play comes luridly to life on the streets of Soho, in a world of addiction to drugs and handbags, to flash-bulbs and tabloid exposure, and the overwhelming need for attention.
The cast of loveable misfits includes Phil Daniels (Quadrophenia, A Clockwork Orange at the RSC, Eastenders, The Beggar's Opera at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre) playing Big God, Emma Pierson as Natty (Little Dorrit, Hotel Babylon) and Edward Hogg (Bunny and the Bull, White Lightnin' and Woyzeck at The Gate) as Baz.
